I am 2 1/2 weeks post op and Dr. Mourad was amazing. At our consultation he really listened to exactly what I wanted and the results I was looking for. He was extremely thorough in explaining to me what the procedure entailed and what it would be like for me post op. I can’t stress enough how he took the time to understand exactly what it was I wanted to do. I couldn’t ask for better results!!

Female Ethnic Revision Rhinoplasty Before and After

Thrilled to share before and after results of my patient after a revision rhinoplasty. The patient is a very pleasant 39 year old woman that came to me complaining of a long standing infection for a year. She had a rhinoplasty 17 years ago, in which the original surgeon placed a synthetic implant. This became infected about 1 year ago!

In her preoperative photos, you can see that she has swelling, redness, and drainage from her nasal bridge. She also has what we call “saddling” of her nose. This refers to collapse of the nasal bridge. The goals of treatment were to eliminate the infection, correct the nasal deformity, and maintain the integrity of her breathing. She underwent a rhinoplasty with me with rib reconstruction through a minimally invasive 1.2 cm incision.

It is important for patients to recognize that placing foreign and synthetic implants in the nose carries a serious risk of infection, not only at the time of surgery, but many years later. This patient developed an infection after 17 years! In my practice I see infections that arise on average 11 years after the original surgery! These are extremely complicated problems as antibiotics typically cannot resolve the infection, and the implant usually is a major supportive structure. This patient was on antibiotics for almost a year, that failed to clear the infection. She sought treatment from multiple surgeons who recommended removing the infected implant and allowing her to heal for 1 more year followed by a second surgery for definitive reconstruction. Looking at the intraoperative photos after implant removal you can appreciate the gravity of this approach. She would essentially have no nose for a whole year! I offered her implant removal with reconstruction during the same surgery.

Many times, patient’s are worried that implant removal will alter the shape of their nose. This patient was particularly worried because she liked her overall nasal appearance (minus the infection!). Fortunately, using the rib made her nose look even better, and I am pleased to say that she extremely satisfied with her results. Feel very fortunate and blessed to be trusted with a patient’s face.

Male Deviated Septum / Rhinoplasty Before and After

Very pleased to post before and after photos of my patient who had a rhinoplasty. The patient is a pleasant and wonderful 40 year old Male that came to me looking to fix the appearance of his nose.

The photos on the left show the before, where he had a droopy tip, dorsal hump and bony deviation to his left. Important considerations are to address all these areas without compromising the patient’s masculinity and keeping his nose in harmony with the remainder of his other facial features. He underwent rib reconstruction through a minimally invasive 1.2 cm incision, due to an absence of septal cartilage.

He is currently 3 weeks out and still has mild swelling but still looks great! He should continue to heal well and look good!

Closed Rhinoplasty

Intra op photo of a closed rhinoplasty. This rhinoplasty techniques uses no visible incisions, minimizes post operative pain and swelling, and reduces recovery time- so you can get back to life sooner and breathing better!

After over 20 years of kickboxing and my nose needed some work done! I couldn’t breathe and my nose was slightly on the side.

From the 1st visit, Dr Morad was very clear about every step ahead of us.
The surgery was easy and quick: all the staff was lovely and nice, the surgery center was clean and perfect.

24H hours after surgery I was off pain killer.
Everything happened according to the plan;
I now can breathe and my nose is back centered!

Thank you one more time Dr Morad and all the friendly staff working with you.

He is a angel to me, the best doctor, an extraordinary human being, he cares a lot about his patients, he takes time to listen and explain every detail very clearly. I don’t have enough words to say thanks Dr Mourad.

For as long as i can remember i was very unhappy with the appearance of my nose and as i got older i developed a deviated septum, which made breathing and every day life so uncomfortable for me. I am beyond happy & appreciated to have been pointed in Dr. Mourads direction! He is not only an artist at what he does, he also is very informative and makes you feel comfortable so you know you’re in the right hands. Thank you so much again doc!
