I know several rhinoplasty patients, and while I'm not a huge fan of plastic surgery, I can see what a difference the procedure has made in their lives. I guess it makes sense. After all, your nose is right in the middle of your face. There's no ignoring it or its impact on how you feel about yourself.

After working with plastic surgeons for over a year now, if there's one piece of advice I would give it's to research your surgeon well before you commit. Make sure you get an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon. And if you're lucky, you'll find one with additional credentials like one I know in San Diego. Rhinoplasty is one of his special interests, and you can see evidence of that when you look at his background.

Do your homework, it will pay off.
