I had a rhinoseptoplasty through doctors Moustafa Mourad and Garrett Bennett and feel incredibly lucky to have connected with such an intelligent, warm duo. Both doctors met with me extensively before the surgery, prepared me for what would be a relatively complicated procedure (I had a severely deviated septum, minimal cartilage, a collapsed nasal valve and could not breathe through one of my nostrils at all) and gave me the attention, facts, and encouragement that I needed to move forward with the procedure. I needed a rib graft during the surgery and Dr. Mourad made the incision so minimal that now, 3 months out, I barely notice it. My nose bridge needed to be wider so that my nostril wouldn’t collapse again and I was hesitant to see the “after” look, knowing it would be a technically wider nose but they’ve done such a nice just making it symmetrical and WORKABLE that I’m the happiest gal. I feel comfortable with its new aesthetic and am able to breathe – headaches, sinus infections, nasally voice, and difficulty exercising no more! The amount of personalized care I’ve received from both the doctors and their warm staff is beyond note-worthy. They treat me like a member of their community and use routine, personal phone calls and thoughtful visits to make me feel both supported and informed. I would recommend Dr. Mourad and his staff wholeheartedly, a thousand times over. I have been visiting surgeons for about 10 years now preparing for this surgery and feel so happy that I waited until I found the right fit. Stay tuned for before and after pictures!

Before and After Female Revision Rhinoplasty

This young female patient that had a revision rhinoplasty with Dr. Mourad using her own rib. She came in 9 years after a primary rhinoplasty with another surgeon in New York City. She complained about her nose looking “deformed and unnatural”. The photo on the left shows her before photo. As you can see, she has asymmetry of her nasal tip. A functional and cosmetic surgeon Dr. Mourad looks at the “tip defining points”. These can best be appreciated by the reflective white light points at the tip. In her photo on the left, you can see that the patient’s right light point is higher then her left point. This was because her nose was twisted, with malformation and poor positioning of her cartilages.

Many years ago, when she had her original surgery, they removed cartilage that caused asymmetrical scarring and positioning of the cartilages as the years wore on. Over time, her nose began to droop looking unnatural. In her after photo on the right, you can see that her tip points are symmetric, with symmetric casting of light and shadows. Using her rib through a minimally invasive approach and access through a 1.2 cm incision, Dr. Mourad was able to recreate the natural contours of the nose. This photo is only 1 month after surgery, with still some swelling that should come down with time.

Male Ethnic Rhinoplasty Before and After

Do you ever feel like your nose is weak and collapsing? Like you have an inability to pass air? The nasal cartilages and bones can weaken over time, collapsing, causing feelings of congestion and inability to breathe. Sometimes the collapse is so severe it is present at baseline. This can be detrimental to your overall health and well being.

The patient pictured here couldn’t breathe because of collapse of his right nostril. Through an ethnic rhinoplasty this patient’s crooked nose and breathing could be fixed without any external incisions, minimizing pain and post operative swelling.

Dr Mourad’s staff, when I first walked in, were incredibly inviting and friendly. It was my first consultation with Dr Mourad- he took his time, took notes, and truly listened to what I wanted. I’ve been to other doctors prior and their consultation always seemed rushed and provided little feedback. During the examination, he walked me through, with description, why he agreed or disagreed with what I was asking. Dr Mourad is friendly, genuine and wants you to look and feel your best. Highly recommend!

Dr. Mourad is excellent! He is very attentive, takes his time listening and his time explaining. He is thorough and precise. His staff are also accommodating, kind and are great with following up. Dr. Mourad performed a Thyroidectomy on me and, after cancer was found, he followed up daily to make sure I was ok the first few days. I will be following up with him soon and will be scheduling my deviated septum surgery.

Teenage Rhinoplasty Before and After

The patient is a 16-year-old female patient presented to Dr. Mourad for concerns with nasal breathing obstruction. She also complained of the appearance of her nose. The photo on the left demonstrates her preoperative view. She stated she did not like that her “tip was so big”, in addition to complaining of her tip “drooping.” The evaluation revealed the patient to have a bulbous tip. Dr. Mourad met with the girl and her family many times to help understand her complaints and understand her and her families expectations. After careful discussions with the family, she decided to undergo a closed rhinoplasty. This minimally invasive rhinoplasty, allowed for the patient to undergo the necessary modifications that maximized her outcome without compromising her future development. The photo on the right demonstrates a more refined and narrower tip, that is straight, without the “bulbous appearance” seen in the left photo. Her tip is also at a higher position, more elevated, and less droopy then seen in the preoperative photo. Her breathing is also improved after Dr. Mourad corrected her nasal airway obstruction internally.

Revision Rhinoplasty Before and After

This is a 41-year-old female who presented 1 year after rhinoplasty with complaints of 100% nasal blockage and unnaturally appearing nose.

Left Photographs: This photo shows her at presentation to Dr. Mourad’s office 1 year after her initial surgery. The black arrows show that she had an excessive amount of her nose removed externally, causing significant scarring and contracture. This scarring narrowed her nostrils and contributed to her inability to breathe. The blue arrows show that her nose has incomplete breaks in her nasal bones causing nasal valve collapse, further making her breathing worse. In the lower picture, the purple curved arrow also shows that she has a “droopy” tip that hangs low. The deformity is also from excessive resection of the internal structures of the nose. The blue star in the photo on the profile view also shows that the previous surgeon had left a bony hump, that also was made to appear worse by the droopy tip.

Right Photographs: This is a patient 1 year after surgery once the final healing has settled in. The purpose of the surgery was to restore her ability to breathe. The patient underwent a complete nasal reconstruction using her own rib. The orange arrow shows that her nasal tip was restored to a more natural, “higher”, position, no longer with a deforming “droopy” look. Her nasal tip has smoother contour. Her ability to breathe has been completely restored with improvement in her nasal valve structures.

This man is a saint! Went above and beyond my expectations by fixing my nose, both inside and outside. I was left disfigured from an accident and could not breathe at all from both nostrils. I had consulted with two plastic surgeons before meeting Dr. Mourad. He was very thorough in his explanations and was super nice and reassuring. I decided to have surgery with him because he could fix my breathing and give me back my normal nose during the same surgery. I am now two months after my surgery and I am proud to say that my nose is a work of art.
