I couldn't have wished for a better experience. From start to finish Mr Uppal and his team were the definition of professionalism. Extremely knowledgeable, very comforting, and readily available to answer any questions or concerns. The information I received at every stage was clear and understandable, the correspondence was personal and purposeful, and the procedure itself was performed expertly - I couldn't be happier with how every went and how everything has turned out
I totally lost hopes of having a normal, functioning nose. My previous surgeries left me with a mess; my nose tip cartilage was botched - that’s why my nose was pinched all the way up. I had long nostrils, a falling nose and couldn’t breathe properly. Now after surgery, my tip is strong, airway a lot better and my nose no longer a distraction. Mr Rajan Uppal Consultant Plastic Surgeon basically made my nose look more natural looking.
In order to be able to move on and embrace the next part of my life I needed to find a surgeon I could trust to fix my nose. The last two surgeries made it worse; I lost faith/overall trust in the whole plastic surgery thing and given up until now. Mr Uppal did not promise me that it was going to be perfect – just better; I’ll take better.
Mr Uppal reconstructed both sides of my nose and my nasal bridge and then using a combination of my skin and septal cartilage reconstructed my nasal tip, giving me a more functional and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
It’s normal to be emotional immediately after surgery; in my case more so. I was honestly terrified; most people would be excited about the cast coming off but I just got flashbacks of the last time that happened. The percentage improvement cosmetically was around 75% - this improvement has made me 100% happy. I can’t even believe how much of a change was possible. After the post-operative check, Mr Uppal wanted to make sure everything was healing well and intact.
This nose reconstruction has improved my health in so many ways and I want to thank Mr Uppal for helping me get a better life. I would also like to thank Sandra Steadman, Medical Secretary to Mr Rajan Uppal and Sharon Roberts, Practice Manager & PA to Mr Rajan Uppal for their friendly, supportive, prompt and efficient service.
It’s really amazing what a difference it makes being happy with who you are. I’m getting used to my new nose; it’s like art that’s been sculpted on my face by Mr Uppal and I think I got so used to the nose I had before, as much as I hated it, I felt I was going to be stuck with it forever, so it’s all an adjustment, like I’m getting used to what I look like. I’m a walking billboard for what Mr Uppal is capable of doing.

Dr Uppal is a very genuine and skilled man, and this whole process from start to end has been a breeze. I am currently only 5 weeks post op but I sometimes forget that I have had surgery since the recovery has been that easy! The consultation and follow up appointments were very brief but I didn't need much longer with him as he is very thorough and clearly knows what he's talking about. I would highly recommend Dr Uppal and his team and want to thank them for making this life changing surgery possible :)
