In 2015 I underwent a rhinoplasty. Dr grigoryants ensured me I would look better.

What resulted in the surgery, was my nose not only be left botched, deformed but extremely uncomfortable. I was also left unable to breathe. The Doctor rushed during my consultation. He agreed to carry out a free revison at 13 months post op, which was unsucessful. My nose not only looked even more botched but he removed too much cartilage, which resulted in a collapsed nose! He refused to refund me and offered me another free revison which my husband and I immediately refused.

I am submitting this to warn others. This doctor is inexperienced, does not take the time to speak with his patients properly. He has a style, which is short upturned nose with over exposed nostrils! Dr Grigoryants not everybody likes this style of nose! I showed him photos of what I wanted at my pre op consulation which took place 4 days before my surgery.

He obviously was not paying attention because he gave me the complete opposite!

I have still not found anyone to correct the mess that this doctor made! I paid him $9,800 to deform and botch my nose!

I have been quoted in the region of $23,000 for a revison. Money we do not have!!!

Please go with a surgeon who will treat ALL his patients as individual people and not cookie cut!

I told him at my consultation I do not want Barbie short upturned nose. He asked "why not its cute?" ......

It's my face, and my money and I do NOT want this fake ski slope typical surgery nose!!!

I have breathing problems and hide away from society.

This man ruined my life.

Please stay away and go with another doctor please.

He removes most of his negative reviews online (Make me heal, yelp, realself)

He continues to deform many people. Have a look at the mentioned websites and monitor his negative reviews and comments. They are removed as quickly as they are put up!!!

Going to Dr Vladimir Grigoryants for a simple primary rhinoplasty left me handicapped, botched and bed bound. I have empty nose syndrome because of this t**t. He hacked off half my nose. My cartilage, bone and tissue was thrown into the trash. This man left me with inverted v deformity, pinched tip, nasal valve collapse and upturned my nose like a pig!

Beware of the suspicious positive reviews that call him "Nose God" "Genius" "Caring" he is none of these, he is the butcher of glendale. Do not select a Mr Puniverse runner up to be your plastic surgeon cause you'll be crying every day like me. whatever you do, if he botches you don't make the same mistake like me and trust him to do your revision.

It's a 15 minute botched revision. In google, check out "Vladimir Grigoryants holysmoke". In Instagram, check out @drvladimirgrigoryans @botchednose and @drvladimirgrigoryantsnoses. Do not fall for the positive reviews. A fake reviews company can make genuine looking positive reviews. Their charges are $9 for reviews with photos or $7 for reviews without photos. Dr Grigoryants got my Realself review removed and a bunch of other peoples reviews.

My life is hell living with empty nose syndrome. I wake up in the night gasping for breath. feels like I'm being strangled. He destroyed my life and when I complained, he just told me theres nothing wrong! I'm hearing news that him and his wife Arpa Baroni Grigoryants have been using patients as guinea pigs with extended spreader grafts. I would give anything not to have had surgery with this butcher.

He is the only surgeon in California who is not invited to go to plastic suregry conferences or annual meetings. Because he can't show his face to fellow plastic surgeons after he was caught by make me heal for posting a bunch of fake positive reviews from his office lap top!

He pretends he did Cindy Kimberely's nose, he did not! she doesnt even know who he is. He thinks he's the best surgeon in the world for rhinoplasty. He isn't even double bosrd certified. Stay away

Keep Dr. Grigoryants away from your face and nose. He over promised and under delivered making my nose very assymetric. My results are very bad! My advice: Heed the negative reviews. I read a bunch of negative reviews and did not take them seriously and threw the bad reviews to wayside thinking it won’t happen to me and I will not became another #. I received a ton of warnings from past patients advising me not to go with Dr. Grigoryants because they got bad results from him. I ignored the warnings and went ahead with my surgery.

The word of the mouth is that most of his five star reviews are not truthful reviews. His positive reviews and pictures don’t mean nothing because at the end of the day my result is very bad. I need to undergo a secondary surgery and have another doctor pick up the pieces and it is not easy by any means. In conclusion, find someone else and do not trust Doctor Grigoryants with your face or body. If you need any type of work on your face your best bet will be to go with a facial plastic surgeon. I totally feel ripped off and it is not easy and do not ever think or assume that it won’t happen to you like I did.

Dr. Grigoryants DESTROYED my cousin’s nose. Unacceptable. Nose was treated like a piece of meat. Internal counterparts yanked off and destroyed so nose doesn’t work and looks like a butcher horror!! Doctor kept it a secret he isn’t a trained ENT doctor. Important information to keep from the public! He won’t fix his horrendous work. Unfit to work on people’s noses. Folks think carefully and do research.

Make sure your nose surgeon is ENT qualified. America top surgeon certification useless because surgeons can pay to be on this list. Clinic operates like a back street alley, unprofessional! You get couple of minutes with him and no more!! No room to sit because area to sit and wait is crammed full and not enough chairs to sit on. Dr. Operates like a factory conveyor belt, patients in, out so quick. Consultations rushed. Cousin left with butchered looking nose and can’t breathe.

Aweful nose, totally botched, nose is a big mess

I have decided to put up this review of my plastic surgery experience in an effort to help people who want to have an elective procedure. I made a big mistake choosing Vladimir Grigoryants as my plastic surgeon and have to live with a regret for the rest of my life. I was naive and belived everything that I read online and never question the reviews or the photos. My nose is a complete mess on all levels. He has performed a procedure called Lower Lateral Repositioning which is hard to reverse. My nose has been made extremely short, narrow, and upturned. An exessive amount of tissue and cartilege was removed from my nose which has completely undermined the structual integrity of my nose, My nose has not functioned ever since this man performed a plastic surgery on me. My sinuses are not draining. I have also been defrauded by this doctor. I paid him to perfom a Septoplasty on me to fix a deviated septum and this doctor wrote in my operating report that my septum is streight. I was in complete shock when I picked up my operating report and read it. How could a doctor charge a patient for a procedure and fail to perfom that procedure that present false information in the operating report. My privacy and HIPPA right has been violated. This doctor piblished before and after pictures of my surgery for self-promotion purposed without my consent. The internal and external valves of my nose are extremely weak, my nose has collapsed, and can't function. I have been living in physical and emotional pain since the day this man operated on me. My experience leads me to make the following conclusion that Vladimir Grigoryants is not fit and does not have the proper skill and judgement to be a plastic surgeon. The surgery that he has perfomed on me does not fit anywhere within the standard of care and he has caused great harm to my health and well-being. This man should have his licensing previleges taken away and should not be allowed to practice plastic surgery. AVOID THIS MAN AT ALL COSTS.

Nose ruined, functionality distroyed- The worst experience of my life

I do not know how to start and where to start as I have a lot of content to write about my surgery experience with Vladimir Grigoryants. I chose to undergo a surgery based on the 5 star reviews and pictures posted about him and his practice. I was naive and young and did not know about the power of marketing. After my surgery, I realized that I have made the biggest mistake of my life. I was looking for natural results and minimal changes to be made. Instead my nose was made extremely small, short, narrow and upturned after my surgery. I was in complete shock and disgust after the opening of the cast. There was no trace of my ethnic nose. As if the physical disgust was not enough, I started to experience problems with the functionality of my nose. I could not breathe properly, and I started to experience issues with my sinuses and ear and throat. Prior to undergoing an elective procdure, I did not have any issues with my ears and throat. I paid to have a Septoplasty and Rhinoplasty procedure to fix my septal deviation and slightly improve the appearance of my nose. I was in total shock when I picked up my operating report and read recently that this doctor had written in my operating report that " Patient's septum was streight" This is a complete falsifcation of an operating report as my septum had a deviation and I paid him to perform a septoplasty procedure. In case you are wondering, in the event if my septum was streight he should have refunded the cost for a Septoplasty that he charged me. But, my septum had a deviation and he did not fix it and presented false information in my operating report. This doctor has completely destroyed my nose inside and out. He performed a procedure on me called lower lateral cartilege repositioning which is a procedure that is very hard to reverse. I have so much phyisical discomfort as a result that is really hard to describe. My nose has collapsed due to the exessive amount of cartilege and tissue removal which have undermined the entire structure of my nose. My sinuses are not draining and I am in substaintial debt due the ineptness and incompetence of this doctor. This doctor did me harm and should not be allowed to perform a surgical procedure on a patient and should have his licensing privileges taken away. Doctor's should be bound by the HIPPA and patient privacy laws and give Hippocratic Oath not to any harm. However, this has not been the case. Dr. Grigoryants, has violated my HIPPA and posted pictures of my surgical result for self promotion on his website without my verbal and written consent. He has falsfied my operating report and written that the " patient's septum was streight" a procedure that I paid for to have done to improve my breathing. I can't put into words the physical and emotional trauma that I have been through after I allowed Vladimir Grigoryants to perform a surgery on me. The job that this doctor has performed on me is below the standard of care and he has performed a surgical prodecure that I have yet to find a doctor who knows or has the skill to undo. What this doctor has done to my nose is plain dangerous and does not fit within the paremeters of standard of care. AVOID THIS DOCTOR. As far as I know this man is not an ENT and is only a general surgeon. The biggest mistake that I have made was choosing this doctor. I was naive and believed the online reviews and pictures and never second guessed anything that I read and I am paying the price because I chose the wrong doctor for the procdure. A doctor, who violated my HIPPA, distroyed my nose, and presented false information in my operating report.

I suffered a broken nose in the summer of 2012. Saw this doctor in 2014 for an in office one to one consultation. He was in such a rush i didnt get any of my questions answered. He basically wanted me to pay my deposit. He was soft spoken and seemed like calm doctor but he had no time for me. I realized it was because he had a full up waiting office area. Not my problem he books too many clients in! I get impression he craves money and wants to see as many people as possible in one day. To cut a long story short, i booked another in office consultation few months later. This time he saw me for longer (12 minutes). He was again in some rush. He made me believe he knew what I wanted doing. He doesn't have proper medical equipment like other doctors to check in the nose. He has a quick rushed look. He dont analyze the nose properly. He has attitude of not interested what people really want. It's really what his old personal taste is. His opinion counts not really the patients. I was naive, paid the deposit and took out a loan through finance company he recommends. The girl in his office told me about the company.

Fast forward to over 12 months after my surgery. My tip is heavily asymmetrical. I have like some weird bridge, not straight like i asked for, it's curved in and looks like someone who had a bad nose job! Dont know what the hell he did to my tip cos it's so high up like some weird animal or something. He actually managed to make my nose a lot bulkier and uglier. To make matters worse, i cant breathe, my fluid and mucus does not drain cos the guy lift my tip too high up. He dont have common sense this doctor. He dont have judgement. I'm left with awful nose that dont function at all! I have problems with my ears after he operate on me. I'm in debt and have to take other loan to have the nose attended to. This doctor doesn't know what the hell hes doing. He has a one size fits all attitude. He's good at acting. He pretends to be some shy geeky kinda guy. Dont be tricked. It's part of his plan to get the patients. I also got him to put lip fillers for me. He did this well and i love the lips. He's good at fillers but not noses. Stay away if you value your health and looks.

IMPORTANT WARNING!!!! After considering a breast augmentation, I made a big error by selecting Dr Grigoryants as my surgeon. He used the wrong sizes and profiles that we had selected together, which left me with giant breasts! The implants caused the skin to stretch and contract. I selected 325-350cc he gave me 650cc!!!! His response when I complained was I did not communicate properly. Ridiculous absolutely ridiculous. It is beyond me how this man with no simple brain thinking can use an excuse like this!! My friend also never listened to my warning and went ahead with a a slight tweak nose job. Instead he gave her his rocket signature nose!! He overly narrowed her tip that she can no longer breathe! He also ignored her firm request for no lift of the tip. He lifted her tip ridiculously high, she now looks like some kind of farm animal. My WARNING to you all is keep away from this this man!! He is unfit to be Doctor!!!! He is known for doing a lot of botching then annoying patients until he can force them to remove the negative reviews. He is an ACTOR not an Artist as he tells friends and family to write all over the Internet. He pretends to be quiet and a shy kind demeanour. Don't be tricked into believing this!! It's part of his cunning plan to pull vulnerable women towards him so he can get rich and botch! When you have problems he will become arrogant and dismissive. He refuses to accept he made mistakes. STAY AWAY

I'm very unhappy with service i got from this doctor. He told to me i can give to you female looking nose and make you face beauty. I had meeting with Dr Grigoryants maybe for 20 minutes. He told to me i can give you big improvement. I immediately on same day pay deposit money $750 for surgery procedure on credit card. Lady tell to me i can pay other amount few weeks before surgery. I say fine, its good. I had surgery procedure and very unhappy. Doctor removed so much cartilage and bone. My nose now unattractive and damaged so much. At 2 months i go to see Doctor and tell to him breathing not good now, nose lumpy and uneven. He tell to me, lots of water and swell in the nose. He saying it will go. Now i am 1 yeurs and 4 months after my surgery procedure. Nose looks very bad. I cant breath but also my nose fake looking and not attractive at all. From me this Doctor will get 0/10. He's not experience to do nose surgery. I am now booked with Dr Le for my next surgery procedure to fix lots of damage Dr Grigoryants did. Dont go to this Doctor pleese
