Dr Skouras with his experience and knowledge

Rhinoplasty
Were you pleased with the treatment?

Simply the BEST RHINOPLASTY REVISION IN THE WORLD, look no further than Dr ATHANSIOS SKOURAS. I recently had surgery with Dr Athanasios Skouras to correct my previous Primary Rhinoplasty which I had in the UK 4 years ago with a English surgeon. The UK surgeon did a very poor botched up job on my nose, making my breathing worse when he was supposed to correct this, he also left me with no visible bridge and unsymmetrical tip which was due to my deviated septum, due to this I knew I would be having a revision in the future. Before I found Dr Skouras I researched all the top Rhinoplasty Surgeons worldwide, from the USA to Europe. DR Skouras with his experience and knowledge certainly came into this category of top surgeons. After long research I decided to email these Doctors some of whom failed to even respond, I dealt with DR Skouras son, DR George Skouras (also a plastic surgeon) and from the start I had an extremely good rapport with him, I spoke several times by phone and not once did I feel pressured or rushed into having the surgery. Just from the pictures I emailed, he and his father pinpointed what was wrong with my nose, as well as correcting my ascetical look George also assured me that my breathing would be corrected through septoplasty (due to my deviated septum) and turbinectomy to also improve my breathing. Bone graft was also needed to be taken from my iliac bone near the pelvis as the previous surgeon had made me a ‘saddle nose’ therefore the bridge had to be built up again. Most other surgeons wanted to remove rib and ear cartilage which was unnecessary and would not have improved my breathing.
DR Skouras performed the surgery and was assisted by his son George (who specialises in all kinds of plastic surgery) and Vicky also plastic surgeon.

Would you recommend the clinic?

I only recently just had the splint removed and the aesthetic result is unbelievable, I now have the prefect natural looking nose for my face, and its only going to get better due to the swelling (of which is hardly noticeable), added to this my breathing has significantly improved already. Pre op I had an idea in mind of how I wanted my nose to look however I realised my expectations needed to be realistic due to already having surgery. The result achieved by Dr Skouras has greatly exceeded any of my expectations. I certainly made the perfect choice I would highly recommend talking with Dr Skouras before considering a Rhinoplasty or a Revision worldwide. He amazing surgeon who is totally dedicated to his patients.
