rhinoplasty

msmisty · 12-05-2008, 12:40 AM

I want to get rhinoplasty and am i search of a dr but i've been finding that its hard to find drs. that are both ENT's and certified plastic surgeons. Do you think either one of these qualifications are more important than the other?

If you were to have a rhinoplasty and had to choose between two drs that had either one of these qualifications which one would you choose and why?

There are very many excellent rhinoplasty surgeons who are either plastic surgeons or ENT docs. I would recommend going to one that is board certified and performs a lot of nose jobs. Ask to see before and afters, and speak to a previous patient if possible. You will also want to just feel comfortable with him or her, don't go to someone that irks you.

Good luck,
Dr Walden

I had rhino/septo about 8 years ago...I would highly recommend a facial PS and/or a general PS who specializes in Rhino. It is one of the hardest procedures that PS do and I wouldn't entrust it to someone who isn't doing high volumes of them. Good luck!
