Rhinoplasty Regrets (At First): The Truth About Rhinoplasty Recovery

Have you ever looked in the mirror after surgery and thought… “Did I just make the biggest mistake of my life?” If so, you’re not alone—and this episode is for you.

This week on Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with his lovely rhinoplasty patient, Leeor, just three months post-op. What started as fear and doubt after her cast came off—complete with a silent stare and a pit in her stomach—evolved into trust, transformation, and finally, confidence. In this brutally honest conversation, we unpack:

• The emotional rollercoaster no one prepares you for after rhinoplasty
• Why the cast reveal moment isn’t always filled with tears of joy (and why that’s OK)
• The soufflé effect—Dr. Rahban’s favorite analogy for nose healing
• The difference between aesthetic rhinoplasty and reconstructive rhinoplasty (and why it matters 10 years from now)
• The critical role of your support system—and how the wrong person by your side can derail your recovery

If you're considering nose surgery or supporting someone who is, this is a must-listen. It's raw, real, and packed with the kind of truths you won’t find on Instagram.
