I did the procedure on Thursday and I'm VERY pleased with the results. Bandages came off on Monday and there was minimal pain. I was so happy that Dr. Mosharrafa does not "pack the nose" as I've heard that is the most difficult part of the procedure to deal with. Having my nose drain onto a gauze is not only more comfortable but it just seems like a much more natural way for my nose to begin the healing process.
I experienced a post-op trauma on Sunday night. (I got hit right in the face while still wearing the bandages). I ended up calling Dr. Ali at midnight through tears and he was very considerate and reassuring. When I saw him the next morning he again reassured me that it was best for me to have called and that he was there for ANY questions or concerns.
For bed-side manners...he gets and A+. For skill and expertise A+. For being a person that you just feel confident and trust in...A+. I'm very happy with my new nose and my choice of Drs. I would certainly recommend him to anyone!!
