Dr. Oleh Slupchynskyj, published a ground-breaking study in 2008 that statistically proves a Cosmetic Rhinoplasty (Nose Job) procedure can result in very high patient satisfaction postoperatively and consistently increase self-esteem in African-American patients. Patients did not lose self-confidence because of Plastic Surgery.

Presidential candidate, Donald Trump stated about Michael Jackson, “He was an unbelievably talented guy. He lost his confidence. And he lost tremendous confidence because of, honestly, bad, bad, bad surgery.”

Dr. Slupchynskyj reports, “Although Mr. Trump is correct in stating that Michael Jackson had ‘bad surgery’, it is well documented that ‘Ethnic Rhinoplasty’ can increase the self-esteem of an individual. Like many celebrities, Michael Jackson chose poorly when it came to Plastic Surgeons and doctors in general, causing unacceptable Rhinoplasty results and possibly Mr. Jackson’s untimely death.”

According to the results of Dr. Slupchynskyj’s study, an overwhelming number of patients indicated average or above average satisfaction with their result. The high increase in self-esteem, considered with study results, indicates that Dr. Slupchynskyj’s technique as one that successfully addresses concerns of African-American patients seeking Rhinoplasty Surgery.
