She Almost Lost Her Nose: An Ethinic Rhinoplasty Gone Wrong

About this episode

This episode discusses a patient's terrifying rhinoplasty journey that nearly resulted in losing her nose, highlighting the complexities of revision surgery and the importance of choosing the right surgeon.

She Almost Lost Her Nose… and It Started with a “Simple” Revision. In this powerful episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with his lovely patient whose rhinoplasty journey took a terrifying turn — one that nearly ended in tissue loss and permanent damage. What began as a trusted relationship with a reputable Beverly Hills surgeon slowly unraveled after a revision procedure led to complications, infection concerns, hyperbaric treatments, and a desperate race to save her nose. But this isn’t just a horror story. It’s an educational one. Dr. Rahban breaks down the critical differences in thick-skinned (“ethnic”) rhinoplasty, why revision surgery is exponentially more complex, how filler in the wrong setting can become dangerous, and why the cheapest option can end up costing the most. If you’re considering rhinoplasty — especially a revision — this episode may change how you choose your surgeon forever.
