Jason Hamilton's Online Review Report Card

This review is eight years overdue.  Dr. Hamilton was the first doctor to take the time to properly address a miserable fifteen-year-old sinus issue I had.  He performed a septoplasty and turbinate reduction, and I've never had a recurrent issue since.  He really changed my life.  He's an incredibly talented and amazing human being.  So much gratitude for crossing his path.

This review is eight years overdue. Dr. Hamilton was the first doctor to properly address a miserable fifteen-year-old sinus issue I had. It took a while to heal from the septoplasty and turbinate reduction he performed, and I've never had a recurrent issue since. He really changed my life, and I have so much gratitude for crossing his path. He's not even slightly condescending, despite being a %&*$ genius WIZARD.

Botched by Dr. Jason Hamilton of Osborne Head and Neck Institute  OPINIONThe following is my OPINION based on my PERSONAL INTERACTIONS with Dr. Jason Hamilton and the RESULTS of my rhinoplasty procedure.  The review is lengthy, but highly relevant for anyone considering rhinoplasty with Dr. Hamilton.  For brevity, the core of this review is contained in the section labeled "THE RESULTS".THE RESULTSMy procedure was performed in early October 2017, so I am now approximately 20 months post-op.  At the time of my procedure I was a 50 year old African American male (now 52)  who presented with fairly standard concerns for an African American seeking a COSMETIC primary rhinoplasty procedure - a low, wide bridge (I was particularly concerned about the width and height of my nose at the radix)  and lack of definition in the tip (it was round/bulbous).  I had no breathing issues whatsoever, so from a FUNCTIONAL perspective I had no issues with my nose.  I am emphasizing COSMETIC vs. FUNCTIONAL now because this relates to a very important observation about Dr. Hamilton.In short, I consider the results of my procedure not only BOTCHED, but NONE of my pre-surgery expectations were met.  Post-op, I still have the low, wide bridge I disliked prior to surgery.  Dr. Hamilton's botched attempt at an osteotomy to address the width of my bridge has resulted in EXTREME asymmetry.  I literally have TWO NOSES now - one on the left side of my face and a completely different nose on the right side of my face.  During surgery, the nasal bones were shaped DRAMATICALLY different on the left and right sides of my nose, and this is COMPLETELY visible.  The results literally look like I had an ACCIDENT; as if, for example, I took a sharp elbow to the nose while playing basketball.  The nasal bones on the right side were dramatically OVER-RESECTED in a way that looks COMPLETELY UNNATURAL,  is not MASCULINE,  and is completely INCONGRUOUS with any other features of my nose.Regarding the tip, post surgery I still have a tip I would describe as round, bulbous and lacking definition.   At the pre-op I showed Dr. Hamilton a photograph of the results I wanted for the tip.  I had taken the photograph from the website of Dr. Oleh Slupchynskyj, who is well known for performing African American rhinoplasty.  Dr. Hamilton literally looked terrified by this request, and stated I would get "messed up" if I had this tip surgery.  Although I didn't realize it at the time, with this interaction my surgical goals for the tip of my nose were apparently COMPLETELY DISCARDED.Dr. Hamilton presents himself as an expert on the "black nose job".  In my OPINION, refinement of the BRIDGE and TIP are the cornerstones of COSMETIC rhinoplasty for this population.  Based on my RESULTS, I think Dr. Hamilton lacks the fundamental skills necessary to successful perform COSMETIC rhinoplasty on black noses, both in terms of his AESTHETIC (what an attractive black nose looks like) and his TECHNICAL SKILL (the ability to deliver desired results).  To be absolutely clear, with my results I'm not lamenting the difference between a good result and a great result, but rather the difference between an ACCEPTABLE result and a COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE result.  Because of this, if you are Black I would advise extreme caution about using Dr. Hamilton for a cosmetic rhinoplasty procedure.  If you are Black and male I would DEFINITELY avoid him altogether.I have emphasized COSMETIC vs. FUNCTIONAL  in this review for a reason.  If you do your research on Dr. Hamilton you will find that he has TWO WEBSITES.  On one website he emphasizes his capabilities as a 'FUNCTIONAL NASAL SPECIALIST".  There are lots of BEFORE and AFTER pictures on this website with mostly non-Black patients.  On another website Dr. Hamilton presents himself as 'BLACK NOSE JOB SPECIALIST".  There are far fewer pictures on this website and some have been up for years.Of course he COULD be both a FUNCTIONAL and COSMETIC specialist, but based on my results, if you are exclusively seeking COSMETIC changes to your nose, and your are Black, I would definitely use someone else.From a FUNCTIONAL perspective,  I had no issues whatsoever with my nose prior to surgery.  Now, 20 months post-op, the tip of my nose is STILL NUMB and my nose is SO DRY I require frequent saline spray to improve my comfort.  So not only were my cosmetic goals not met, but I am also worse off in terms of the FUNCTION of my nose.
