Best Rhino Plastic Surgeon for Black Noses? - Cosmetic / Plastic Surgery Message Board

Aaliyah909 · 03-18-2004, 05:40 PM

Hello everyone,

I'm fairly new to this board and I'm based in the UK. Because my nose is complex I'm considering coming to the US to get it done.

I'm a 24 year old Black female who is looking to have a primary rhino which may invlove: Alar base reduction, narrowing the width and increasing the height of the bridge and tip refinement.

Can anyone please give me some recommendations as to who the top surgeons are? Would really appreciate it.

Not absolutely necessary but if you also have any idea on what ones have a lot of experience with black noses then that would be very helpful.

Thanks alot,

Best wishes...

Hi Aaliyah,
From the list of docs that the Katarina gave you, I've heard a whole lot about Dr. Bellin, Toriumi and Pastorek and Denenberg.

Good luck.

Dr Jan R Adams (CA) – never seen any of his work
Dr Raj Kanodia (CA)– rumored to have done Tyra Banks nose, but her nose appears rather aesthetic. I can tell that she has had work done.
Dr Ellenbogen (CA) - heard he was Michael Jackson’s plastic surgeon….lol self-explanatory
Dr Anthony Griffin (CA) –did not like any of the noses he did on extreme makeover.
Dr Dean Toriumi (IL) - hailed as one of the best rhino surgeons
Dr Norman J Pastorek (NY) –haven’t see any of his work as of yet
Dr Denenberg (NE) – never seen any of his work
Dr Howard Bellin (NY) – heard too many horror stories about this doctor
Dr Michael Sachs (NY) – could be a possibility

There was one doctor that I ran across, his work appeared to be somewhat impressive. His name is Dr. Adam Tattlebaum.

Additional notable rhinoplastic surgeons
Dr. Gunter
Dr. Tabbal
Dr. Daniel
Dr. Constantinides
Dr. Pearlman
