Reviews for Nose Procedures in Pittsburgh, PA

Fantastic surgeon - I couldn’t be happier with my new nose! It fits the rest of my face - When I was considering rhinoplasty seriously a couple of years ago it took me a while to find a surgeon I could trust and had the right credentials. I went to three surgeons, including Dr. Chiu, and found him to be the best fit. Dr. Chiu is incredibly realistic when it comes to bringing harmony to the face and took the time to explain what would work the best not only aesthetically but also for my overall health. For rhinoplasty, you want to look good but still be able to breathe normally. Rhinoplasty is his speciality and after having this procedure done by Dr. Chiu I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking this procedure. He considered my total facial structure in his renderings to give me an idea what my new nose would look like. Our goal was to take the focus away from my nose; I no longer wanted that feature to be where everyone’s eyes were drawn.Dr. Chiu does his surgeries at Upper St. Clair hospital and only has the best surgical staff working with him. I was well taken care of and was in surgery for approximately four hours. Following surgery, I was released to go home to recover. I was expecting some discomfort the first night; however, my discomfort was not from any pain but from having to sleep upright. I prescribed some pain medication but I never needed it. I suffered from ZERO bruising! Most post-op photos show significant bruising from rhinoplasty, but I did not have a single one. I was swollen, puffy, and a tad stiff for a while following the procedure but experiencing no pain. I was able to return to work less than 7 days following the procedure and very few people were able to tell I had something done due to lack of bruising.It took about one year for the results of the surgery to settle in, and Dr. Chiu did emphasize that would indeed be the case. It has been 13 months at the time of this post, and I couldn’t be happier with my new nose! It fits the rest of my face, I have full functionality (no issues breathing), and you cannot see the small incision at all. Dr. Chiu is incredibly thorough and highly skilled. What I respect most about him and his practice, though, is that he gives you realistic expectations and explains the why/how to his methods. If you are seeking natural and harmonizing results for your looks, Dr. Chiu should absolutely be at the top of your list!I also want to point out that Sara is wonderful! She makes sure you have every piece of information you could possibly need from scheduling, financing, and answers all questions promptly. I am so glad to have chosen to trust Dr. Chiu and Sara with my face! I will be a lifelong customer as I continue through life and the aging process. More

Best Decision Ever. I’m so glad I chose Dr. Chiu - Best decision of my life!! I wanted a nose job for as long as I could remember. After breaking my nose a few times playing sports, I finally decided to go to a surgeon and get my nose fixed. I’m so glad I chose Dr. Chiu! He was realistic, kind, and achieved everything we discussed. He even gave out his phone number incase I had a problem during recovery. The surgery itself was relatively painless, and I barely had any bruising or swelling. I’m now six months out of my surgery, and I am obsessed with the results. I couldn’t recommend Dr. Chiu more!

When I decided to finally go through with my rhinoplasty, I asked everybody for the best surgeon. I even asked other doctors and plastics surgeons. They all recommended Dr. Chiu. When I went to my consult, he gave me realistic expectations for the result and post-op recovery. However, he completely exceeded all of my expectations. My nose is exactly how I wanted it to look and my recovery was painless! On top of that, my breathing has improved. I had zero pain and little to no bruising or swelling. I was amazed at how good I felt. I have never seen a recovery like my own or his other patients. I was so convinced that for weeks after surgery I was going to have huge black eyes with massive amounts of swelling, and it just never happened! I highly recommend Dr. Chiu as a trusted facial plastic surgeon for your best result! More

20 Year Old Revision Rhinoplasy - Pittsburgh, PA - Dr. Chiu took much time with me, and answered all of my questions throughout the entire process. His follow-up care is thorough and never rushed. I can't say enough about my positive experience with Dr. Chiu and Sara...I am so pleased and lucky to have met them! More

Dr. Chiu and Sara are phenomenal! I had an excellent rhinoplasty experience, from Dr. Chiu and Sara to all of the staff at St. Clair Hospital. I am 110% ecstatic about my results and all of my family and friends agree! I was brought to tears of how pleased I was. I had an easy and quick recovery, absolutely no bruising and minimal swelling - I felt like myself again the next morning after surgery. (you still need to lay low for a few days even though you are feeling great!) I highly recommend Dr. Chiu to anyone considering rhinoplasty. You will feel comfortable from the moment you walk in the door for your consultation and be assured that you are in good hands. More
