Ja,
Ik wil NT ook graag mailen met mijn twijfels, maar dat kan ik niet zo goed doen omdat ik al een afspraak voor de operatie heb… Misschien dat jij dat wil doen? Vragen of hij Denenberg kent en of hij ook zulke resulaten kan bereiken?? Ik zal mijn mail hier even neerzetten:
Dear Dr. Denenberg,
I'm a girl from Holland and passed your site. I'm really interested in nose surgery . I've been operated before, but I'm really not happy with the results. As you can see I've a hump and my tip is very low. I made an appointment with another surgeon in Holland.. The operation would be the 27th of November, but then I saw your site and I'm really amazed by the results!
I would like tot remove the hump, move the tip up, make the tip a little more round and a lot shorter.. I hope you could tell me what the posibilities are, what the costs will be and how it works.. I consider to cancel my operation here and plan a operation at your clinic.
I attached a few photo's from me and a picture from Angelina Jolie, how I would like my nose to be.
I would love to hear from you soon!
Hi N.,
Thanks for visiting my Web site and for sending your photographs. It does look to me as though your nose is still much longer than it needs to be, and there is still a hump present.
I made a modification of one of your profile views, and I’m attaching it to this email. In the modification, I elevated the tip of your nose and took down the hump, and I also reduced the strength of the bridge of your nose up where you nose begins, just in front of your upper eyelashes, because that area makes your nose still look too strong to me.
I also made an animation out of the modification, because some people find the animation easier to evaluate. You can see the animation in your Web browser by going to the following link: http://www.FacialSurgery.com/anim
Perhaps you can let me know what you think of this modification.
You certainly could consider coming to Omaha for your surgery. We have many people come from Europe. When have your operation been? I usually like to wait until it has been a full year after the previous operation, because that gives the scar tissue underneath the skin time to soften up and it makes it more likely that we would be able to achieve a good result.
At the bottom of this email, I’ll have my office manager, Bonnie, give you information about costs and arrangements for you to come to Omaha for your surgery. If you decide not to come here for your next operation, you need to be certain to see before and after photographs of other revision rhinoplasty patients of the doctor whom you are considering to perform your operation. Revision rhinoplasty is extremely difficult and most plastic surgeons do not perform the operation well, and if you have another operation that is unsuccessful, it will make it extremely difficult to get your nose to a good position later on in yet a third operation. So you need to do your research very carefully right now.
Anyway, feel free to let me know what you think about all this. I would be happy to answer any more of your questions and help guide you. Thanks again for writing.

This is Bonnie writing to you now. I’d like to step in and answer your question about costs, as well as some other things we need to do to schedule surgery.
First of all, the cost for your revision rhinoplasty would be $11,000.00. To that, you would have to add another $3,000.00 for the operating facility and anesthesia fees. There would be additional expenses in the range of $250.00 to $350.00 for such things as pre-operative blood tests, and some prescriptions and miscellaneous items. And, of course, you would have to get yourself to Omaha and back.
As far as payment is concerned, our policy is to receive a $500.00 nonrefundable deposit at the time surgery is scheduled, with the balance of the payment due in full, six weeks prior to a scheduled surgery date. We do not have an in-office payment plan, but we find that many of our patients like charging their surgery to Visa or MasterCard, thus allowing them to handle monthly payments on their own. You could also contact your bank, savings and loan, or credit union to inquire about a loan. Several of our patients have done this to pay for surgery.
Another thing I should mention is that you may not be alone that first night after your surgery. If you come to Omaha alone, we would need to make arrangements for a sitter to stay with you the night of your surgery. She would be responsible for putting cold cloths on your eyes all night and assist you as needed. Her charge is $275.00, and you would need to pay her before she leaves you the morning after surgery.
Most of our patients stay at the DoubleTree Guest Suites, which is located near our office. They provide a room for a discounted price, in the range of $100.00 plus tax per night, when you call the local sales office and tell them you are a patient of Dr. Denenberg's and that you are requesting his preferred rate. The DoubleTree has a courtesy van that offers free transportation to and from the airport as well as to and from our office.
Since Dr. Denenberg has reviewed your photos and has determined that you would be a good candidate for surgery, you could call me any time to schedule a date for the operation, and arrange to be here the day before surgery, so that you and Dr. Denenberg could have a thorough in-person consultation and make sure that you are both happy with the plan.
Dr. Denenberg would want to see you a week after surgery, too, to see how you are doing and remove any stitches. Some people prefer to stay in Omaha for the week. Others go home a day or two after surgery and then return for the follow up visit.
After you have called me and scheduled a date for the operation, I would then send you a large packet of information. The packet would include our patient handbook, surgery paperwork, pre-operative instructions, laboratory information, prescriptions, hotel brochure, etc. As I mentioned earlier, the paperwork and your payment would need to be returned six weeks before the scheduled surgery date.
You may call me anytime, at the number on the bottom of this email, if you would like to discuss the possibility of coming to Omaha. We look forward to hearing from you.
–Bonnie
