What makes a good nose job surgeon?

• A nose surgeon that is qualified to the highest levels of their profession. A surgeon who is on the GMC register for Otolaryngology – Head & neck surgery or plastic surgery or maxillo-facial surgery. They may also be Board Certified in Facial Plastic Surgery http://www.ebcfprs.org
• A nose surgeon with a lot of experience doing the rhinoplasty procedure
• A nose surgeon that focuses on rhinoplasty as opposed to offering it as one of many  procedures
• A nose surgeon with a confidence in their capability whilst recognising that rhinoplasty is complex, difficult surgery with limitations
• A nose surgeon who can show you a good portfolio of their previous surgeries. Before and after photography and good testimonials are useful indicators
• A nose surgeon with artistic skills and vision
• A nose surgeon who can offer a detailed explanation of the procedure
• A nose surgeon that turns some patients away because a rhinoplasty is not in their patient’s best interest
• A nose surgeon that puts your well-being first

What to avoid in a rhinoplasty surgeon

• A surgeon that doesn’t show you they care about your health and comfort – both mental as well as physical
• A surgeon who offers ‘special deals’. This may be an inducement to surgery
• A surgeon who tries to pressurise you or incentivise you into the surgery. Choosing to undergo rhinoplasty should be entirely your decision
• A surgeon who persistently advises that you should have the operation with them
• A surgeon who advertises free consultations in which you may see someone who is not the surgeon who will perform your operation. Your consultation should be providing a medical opinion on what is best for you
