Do your homework. What is the best place to start? I’ll give you some ideas.

Reviews and references

Do some research first. RealSelf or Yelp provide an honest review. Do not just read the stars, but also what other people say. The stories of unsatisfied clients could save you headaches.

Do not hesitate to ask those you know and trust. Last year your cousin had a surgery on his nose. Perfect! You can ask her questions about her experiences.

Board Certification

You’d probably be shocked. Check the board certifications of your surgeon. This is much more than a certificate on a wall. The certificate proves that the surgeon underwent the necessary training and has passed rigorous exams. It shows commitment to the field.

Before and After Photos

You can think of the next step as window shopping. You should request the surgeon’s past work. Real patients, real results. You’ll be interested in the variety of noses that they have created, and not just those perfectly symmetrical. This will give you a good idea of their skill and variety.

Each nose has its own story. Choose the nose that will tell you the type of story you would like to hear.

Consultations

After narrowing down your list of people, it’s finally time to meet with them. You’re ready to meet the people on your list. The first impression is crucial. It’s a lot like going on a date. You can tell pretty quickly whether you’re compatible. When you ask questions, pay attention to how the doctor reacts. Are they interested, or are you being rushed to leave? Gut instinct is key.

Ask everything. How did they feel about your nose and other similar ones? How many Rhinoplasties do you have performed? What is the success rate of their procedure?

Communication

Communication is essential. It is important to listen carefully to the surgeon as they explain what will happen, any risks and possible outcomes. The surgeon should not use too much jargon or without explaining it. Barney’s way of doing things needs to be broken down by someone so you can follow along.

Bedside Manner

Empathy. You need to find a surgeon that will treat you as an individual rather than just a paycheck. Listen to all the details in your first consultation. Are they patient? Attentive? You will learn a lot from your gut. If you are feeling like your case has no value, then leave.

Costs of Financing

Our greenbacks cannot be ignored. Rhinoplasty can be expensive. The price of rhinoplasty varies depending on the location and experience of the surgeon. It is important to know the exact cost. Include any additional costs, such as anesthesia fees or facility charges.

Ask the clinic if they offer financing or payment plans. You do not want to be in debt after your surgery.

Hospital Privileges

Where does the magic happen? Check to see if the surgeon is affiliated with a well-respected hospital or center for surgery. The safety of the procedure is as important as the equipment.

Trust in Feeling

Last but certainly not the least: trust yourself. Trust yourself if you feel right. You have your own nose, choices and life.

Discover rhinoplasty without fear, but with excitement. The right guide can help you achieve the perfect shape for your nose. Every question you ask will be appreciated by your future self.
