For those of you who actually went through with surgery at the Bagatin Clinic and were happy with the results—was it Dr. Glumičić personally performing the procedure, or did someone else handle it?

The reason I'm asking is because I noticed Glumičić shares the office space with Iva Džepina.

Thanks! 🙂

I honestly thought there was no way it could look like that, but now I actually have the exact nose he mapped out.😁😁

So, who is he?

I get that. But I still think there's huge value in seeing a simulation first. You can sit down with the doctor and say, "Okay, I love this look, but let's ditch that part," so they can actually explain what's realistic and what's just wishful thinking. At the very least, it prevents those nightmare scenarios—like that one guy mentioned a few pages back who had a surgeon totally forget to narrow his nose even though they talked about it before the surgery!

p.s. Dr. Tomica Bagatin, any thoughts from your side?

I’ve been scrolling back through about a hundred pages here, and honestly, I’m floored that nobody has brought up Dr. Bagatin. Not even a single mention, good or bad! It’s wild, especially since his old man was a top-tier maxillofacial surgeon and both his sons followed right in those footsteps. The thing that actually caught my eye about him is this 3D computer system he uses to map out what you'll look like after surgery—now, I have zero clue how accurate that tech actually is, but having some kind of visual preview would be a total game-changer. Does anyone know if any of the other high-end private clinics around here use anything similar? If they don't, how do you guys actually nail down the vision with the doctor so you're both on the same page (like, just talking it out, showing them photos, or something else entirely)?

Rhinoplasty isn't some trivial little tweak; it's high-stakes surgery and there's a massive amount of guesswork involved. Honestly, I'm with everyone else here—you really ought to go to someone who specializes specifically in this stuff.

Give me an example? Even if there were a clinic in Washington, D.C., 🙂

I've got a deviated septum, which makes this whole thing way more complicated than a standard fix. Because of that, I'm not even wasting my breath considering those "jack-of-all-trades" plastic surgeons.

So, please, hit me with any good recommendations you've got! 🙂
