Dean Toriumi DR. TORIUMI MAKES WOMEN LOOK LIKE MEN...is insensitive, expensive, and must be stopped Chicago Illinois

I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Toriumi in April of 2006. I nearly cried when he took the cast off but like most other patients, believed him when he said that its gigantic size was just temporary. Alas, it was not. These last three years have been the worst of my life, no question.

I have gone from fairly-attractive to ugly and the damage that he has done to my confidence and personality has been enormous. He must have some PR team because when I was looking for a surgeon, his name was all over the place. Don't fall for it. He is not a plastic surgeon, he is a harbinger-of-ugliness. My nose looks like a teepee...it is hard (embarrassing when making-out), lumpy, wide, and undefined. The bridge of my nose is as big as my index finger. Then he gives you all of this stuff about salt and weather and not getting to Chicago enough to see him for monthly post-ops (I did and he would see me for two minutes max). All of it was a croc. My nose didn't shrink because it wasn't made to. He builds big, fat, ugly noses period. And the worst is he keeps doing it to unsuspecting victims.

PLEASE, if you are an ex-patient of his, get the word out. Take responsibility and spare others from what has happened to us. After many years, and after many doctors telling me no, I have finally found someone to fix it in Beverly Hills. I pray that in one month, this nightmare will be over and I can have my life back. It is so hard to see how people changed toward me after this surgery. One day nice, the next day dismissive...because of my Toriumi nose. People get rhinoplasties to look better, not worse...hellooo! This man must be stopped.
