Patient Reviews

“Masterful job – I am more than pleased with my results – I went to Dr. Shah this past Christmas for rhinoplasty/septoplasty and neck lipo. WOW! What a difference these procedures have made for my self confidence. Dr. Shah and his team did a masterful job, and I am more than pleased with my results. I travelled to Denver specifically to see Dr. Shah because the results shown on his website and RealSelf were consistent and natural-looking. I am of Middle Eastern descent and have broken my nose at least 4 times since I turned 11; I was looking for someone to simply return my nose to what it likely would have looked like without my accidents. Dr. Shah delivered! And with shockingly minimal bruising (just follow his instructions re: icing!). Recovery was easy; splint removal was painless. I only wish I had seen him sooner, and that I have a chance to go back for any future needs. Thank you Dr. Shah and team!”

“Dr. Shah is Brilliant and I Love my Results – I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Dr. Shah! I had a large hump in my hose that had bothered me for over 30 years. I thought about it every single day, every time I caught my reflection, every time someone took a picture. I hated having my profile visible and constantly had my hair in my face to try to hide it. I was really nervous to have my nose done because I didn’t want it to look overdone, too small, or like it didn’t fit my face. Dr. Shah did an incredible job of listening to exactly what I wanted, and making my nose fit my face so well that my closest friends were blown away by how natural it looks. I feel so confident and happy!I got the Ultrasonic Piezo Rhinoplasty, which is a gentler, more refined method. I had minimal swelling and in just seven days from my surgery I was out and about excited to put my new face into the world. Dr. Shah and his staff are wonderful – professional, warm, knowledgable, responsive. Literally my only regret about this procedure was not doing it sooner. I’m so grateful to Dr. Shah for helping me feel like the best version of myself.”

“My nose is no longer upturned – 20+ years ago, I injured my nose in a car accident. Three previous attempts to restore the shape, and function of my nose left me with a “piggy” nose that was a constant source of emotional pain and embarrassment. I returned to the last doctor to ask for help, and he just said that was the best I could hope for. Other doctors said the same thing. Then, I found Dr. Shah. OMG – what a difference. I felt heard and understood. In April of this year (2023), I had the 4th revision surgery – and the LAST!!! My nose is no longer upturned and piggy looking. It just looks like a normal, everyday nose that belongs on my face. I feel a sense of confidence, and freedom that I have not felt since my 20’s. Thank you, Dr. Shah – you are an amazing, kind human being and apparently a very skilled and knowledgeable surgeon. I am forever grateful to you and your enire staff.”

“100% trust – I have been happy after every visit – From mini facelift to fillers and beyond I have been 100% happy after every single visit to Dr Shah. I liked that he did my mini facelift under local anesthesia and sedatives but not general anesthesia. I had no pain!!!”

“Mini Face Lift With SMAS Lifting – gained confidence and feel a new burst of energy – Dr Shah performed my mini face lift with SMAS lifting 6 months ago and I am very happy with my beautiful natural result. I am 53 years old but I look like I did 10 years ago! I have gained confidence an feel a new burst of energy every time I see myself. It makes me smile a little more every day.I had 3 consultations with other surgeons and Dr Shah was my first choice because of his natural refreshed results and he made me feel like he genuinely cared. He is very knowledgeable, humble and kind. He explained the procedure and what my expectations should be. I felt comfortable and asked all my questions and concerns I had.My after care was exceptional. Dr Shah gave me his private cell phone number and I could call him anytime I needed to. I sent photos to Dr Shah’s office of myself during my recovery period as I felt a bit nervous and unsure if everything was going well and I would get a response back quickly reassuring me everything was healing as it should be. This bought me much comfort and I did not feel alone in my recovery period.His staff Uria and Tatiana were awesome , patient and always helpful towards me.I never write any reviews but I would like other ladies who are wanting to have facelift to have the same truly amazing experience with natural fantastic results.”

“He greatly improved the asymmetry and made the size fit my face – Back in my twenties, my nose was broken and I had a Rhinoplasty. The asymmetry in the tip and general size were not addressed at that time. I also had chronic sinus issues from a deviated septum. Fast forward almost 20 years, and A LOT of research, I decided to go with Dr. Shah. He specializes in challenging cases like mine. Not only, was he, and all his staff kind and professional throughout the process, he is a true artist. He greatly improved the asymmetry, and made the size fit my face. My husband says it is the “movie star version” of my old nose, and I couldn’t agree more. My breathing has also already improved! I expect over the next several months to have improved sinus issues as well, as the internal swelling goes down. The only regret is not having done this sooner and I couldn’t recommend him more!!! Thank you Dr. Shah!”

“Phenomenal revision rhinoplasty experience – saved my life – Dr. Shah is an honest, precise, reasonable, knowledgable, artist and engineer who sets clear expectations and delivers what he proposes. After seeing over a dozen ENTs in the Denver area (following a horrific experience with a different doctor) I finally met with Dr. Shah. He evaluated both my nose and ears, indicated a CAT scan was necessary to understand previous interventions and then created a plan for me that would resolve root cause breathing issues and aesthetics (NOT superficial interventions proposed by other physicians). My quality of life is back and I can breathe. It’s a profound sense of living. Healing is taking place slowly as discussed with positive, measurable results along the way. Thank you Dr. Shah for giving me back my life!”

“Beautiful results – my new nose is smaller and defined – Dr Shah performed my rhinoplasty & alarplasty in July 2022. It’s been 7 months and I’m so happy with my beautiful results. My new nose is smaller and defined while it continues to honor my ethnic background. It blends into my face in a way that I didn’t think was possible.Dr Shah is not only a skilled surgeon, but he’s also an artist and engineer too. :)Thank you.”

“Too Soon for a Facelift but I Needed a Lift… – I got DPO Threads done by Sarah several days ago and I couldn’t be happier. I burn through filler quickly and I believe I found a solution with threads. Considering how much money I was spending on filler it balances out. I really enjoyed my time with Sarah. She is skilled, makes sure you are comfortable, and just a fun person to talk to. I received a dental block and I didn’t feel any pain. The swelling where the needles were inserted were gone within an hour and I even stopped at a store on my drive home. I had slight bruising on day 2 that I could hide with makeup. My face is a little tender but it’s not like recovering from a surgery. Jowls were forming and now a I have a smooth jawline again. I am so happy with this procedure and what’s exciting is it will get better as time passes and more collagen builds from the threads. I highly recommend DPO Threads if you want a lift and refreshed look.”

“My nose healed nicely and fits my face perfectly – I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Shah a year ago. My nose healed nicely and fits my face perfectly. The whole experience was great. I was very nervous for the procedure but everything went smoothly. I recommend Dr. Shah to anyone considering a rhinoplasty.”

“Dr. Shah made me feel comfortable every time I saw him – I had a revision rhinoplasty by Dr. Shah and I couldn’t be happier. I had a rhinoplasty in 2005 that I was never really happy with. As I reached my mid-40’s my nose started to get lumpy and you could actually see and feel the bumps on the bridge of my nose. I wanted to get a revision but didn’t have the time to focus on it, until COVID. I live in a mid-sized city (Colorado Springs, CO) and I believe I went to every plastic surgeon in CS and I could see doctors faces become uncomfortable when I would go in for a consult for a revision. Most of them just made me uncomfortable with how defensive they would become. I found Dr. Shah through research on the internet and went in for my consult. Within 30 seconds of looking at my nose he said “I know how to fix this” and boy did he ever. I didn’t want a drastic change and he gave me that as well. Dr. Shah has a system for minimal bruising that works magic and I had very little bruising after my surgery. Dr. Shah is professional and made me feel comfortable every time I saw him. The staff (especially Brenda) is amazing too. I like them all so much I am going back in several months for a neck lift and and chin implant. I will get pictures posted eventually but if you are considering a rhinoplasty revision – Dr. Shah is AMAZING and you will not be disappointed.”

“11/10 Highly Recommend! I chose Dr. Shah for my rhinoplasty because he holds upself to a higher standard of medicine. It was clear at my consultation that he is passionate about his work and thrives on giving his clients the best results. I was having Rhinoplasty done (bulbous tip). He communicated effectively about the changes to my nose, the pre-op process, and what the surgery entailed. Dr. Shah is a very compassionate doctor. He took extensive pre-op measures by sending me home with gels, vitamins, and lotion to prepare for my surgery. The surgery was honestly a breeze and the recovery was what I expected because Dr. Shah was truthful and prepared me for the healing aspect of the process. I am truly so pleased with the results! Thank you, Dr. Shah!”

“My nose is so cute and natural looking – Always wanted a rhinoplasty, also struggled for a long time with breathing and figured a septoplasty would suit me. After doing a lot of research into the best doctor I landed on Dr. Shah. His experience and credentials are beyond what I saw for other doctors in my area. His personality is really what sold me however! he is so easy to talk to and really you can tell he is a compassionate…”

His personality is really what sold me however! he is so easy to talk to and really you can tell he is a compassionate person who cares about his patients overall health and happiness. I am so happy with my nose, my sleeping has improved cause I can finally breathe. Also its so cute and natural looking, I was a little concerned going into this that I would end up with a cookie cutter snapchat nose, but looking at myself its almost as if I was born with it! However it is a long healing process but I am very confident that despite it changing from day to day (I am only 6 weeks out) its going to end up amazing : )”

“The entire process with Dr. Shah and his team was so easy and wonderful. He made me feel at ease from the consultation all the way through all of the follow-up appointments, answering all of my questions and helping me understand what to expect. He has a lot of expertise, he is passionate about what he does, and I would definitely recommend him to my friends & family. As far as the results, it is everything I ever wanted! I was happy with the results from the minute the cast came off and it just got better and better (I am 3 months post-op now and the majority of the swelling is gone). He listened to my concerns and also set great expectations on what was achievable and what would look the best for my face. I had a super crooked nose and it was always the first thing I would notice when I looked at myself in the mirror or saw myself in a photo. I wanted a natural-looking nose that just blended in with my face and that is what he did. It does not look like I had any work done, which is exactly what I was going for. My only regret is not doing it sooner!”

“I had a mini facelift performed by DR Shah about a month ago and I am almost fully healed with just a little swelling. I had nothing but positive experiences at his office with him and all his employees. His assistant during the surgery was especially pleasant! Cannot wait to see the final results in the next 6 months!”

“All I wanted is a natural looking nose, he exceeded expectations – Not only that I had a crooked/deformed nose but I had such trouble breathing which was getting worse with time. I went through hundreds of surgeons and neither one of them convinced me that they could make a difference. All I wanted is a natural looking nose. A few of the doctors even said that they don’t want to perform the surgery.I don’t know how the doctor did it, but he did. He even filled some of the gaps with my own tissue from behind the ear. And I won’t even start with the recovery. We took everything off after 6 days and there was zero bruising. The doctor has this rapid recovery protocol and they sent me a package with vitamins and substances a few weeks before to start prepping for the recovery. Then this angel came, a nurse that they recommended to spend the night with me (Danielle), that made the whole experience 10 times better. Not only that she took good care of me but we became more like friends. I’m sure that not everyone is always happy with their surgery experience, but seeing what the doctor did… If anyone was unhappy here, I suspect it’s because of unrealistic expectations. I examined my nose so many times, left and right, up and down and I even thought that it might not be possible to make a difference like this. Pics attached”

“My nose tip looks smaller and fits perfectly with my face. – I had many doubts about having a rhinoplasty because I didn’t want a big change. Dr. Shah knew from the first minute what I was looking for and 3 months post surgery I cannot be happier with the results. My nose tip looks smaller and fits perfectly with my face. I would highly recommend Dr. Shah because of his knowledge from years of performing rhinoplasty surgeries.”

“Had 2 Surgeries, Nose Still Crooked – Overall it seems that people have good experiences with Dr. Shah so mine may be the outlier, but I am not really happy with my results and the process. I had Rhinoplasty done nearly 3 years ago now, that was also an osteotomy. The first issue was a mismatch of expectations. I realize everybody heals differently but I was told that I wouldn’t bruise badly due to my skin type and being male. After the first surgery I had black eyes for 3 months. After waiting for a long period of healing 1+ year, I still had a large dorsal hump, and my nose turns to the left, something that wasn’t there pre-surgery. After a year, Dr. Shah was nice enough to do a free revision in his office (minus the cost of surgery supplies). We had agreed to fix the dorsal hump, straighten out the nose and take down the tip a little. After this revision the dorsal hump part was fixed but the nose was still crooked and the tip wasn’t taken down. We also used part of my ear to graft a piece of cartilage. I was told the scar wouldn’t be noticeable, but its very noticeable 1.5 years later and people have asked me about it. After 6 months I went back and we talked about how the tip still wasn’t straight. He recommended I try bend my nose with a popsicle stick daily and said we’d have to wait 1 to 1.5 years after the revision to consider another revision. I did all the exercises and then coronavirus hit so I just waited until it had been 1.5 years post surgery and still my nose was crooked. At this additional 1.5 year follow-up visit, he recommended I tape my nose to my cheek every night to help bend it and said he didn’t think surgery was a good at this point and to re-evaluate in another 6 months. At this point 3 years in, i’m not really willing to wait another 6 months, nor do I think taping my nose to my cheek while I sleep is going to be sufficient. This may help to some degree, and I’m not a surgeon obviously, but I feel like 2 surgeries should have created a straight nose, a problem that didn’t exist before the first surgery. Overall I really want to like Dr. Shah and people have good experiences with him. But after thousands of dollars, 3 years, and a crooked nose the results are the results. I will be setting up a consultation with another doctor in Denver to get a second opinion on a tip-plasty revision”

“He’s the Real Deal – I want to start by saying I have had two previous rhinoplasties before discovering Dr. Shah. After my previous surgeries, my breathing was worse than it was before surgery. I was at the point where all I wanted was a functional nose, if it looked nice too it would be a bonus. Dr.Shah and his team exceeded my expectations in every aspect. I have a nose that I can breathe out of and it looks…”

“The surgery was a breeze and the recovery was easy – I got a rhinoplasty with Dr. Shah about two years ago. From the beginning until now I’ve had a great experience. Both he and his staff are caring and helpful, I never felt in the dark about anything along this journey. In addition, they never pushed me to get other procedures that I wasn’t interested in. The surgery was a breeze and the recovery was easy – I did the whole recovery with…”

“Dr. Shah is the Best Nose Surgeon – I had my tip plastic done with Dr. Shah and he is nothing short from amazing. He is so prompt to respond to any questions I had following surgery. My results were everything I ever wanted an dreamed of. He’s extremely educated and takes his work very seriously which is why I selected him, I could not be more happier with having him perform my surgery! The results say it all! Thank you Dr. S…”

“Much Happier with my Appearance – I had an open ultrasonic rhinoplasty done in November 2019. My goals were to minimize my nose’s bulbousness, remove the hump, make it slimmer, and change the overall shape. All of those things were fulfilled and I’m significantly happier with my appearance. Prior to the surgery, I was highly critical of my nose. I wouldn’t smile, laugh, go on dates, or spend time with family because I lacke…”

I eventually mustered courage to find a top-rated surgeon to help me with my problem and I found Dr. Shah. He explained to me what was achievable and what wasn’t and provided a thorough slideshow which gave an in-depth explanation of the different types of rhinoplasty, and overall surgery process. 7 days subsequent to the surgery, my splint was removed and in that moment I’d known that I made a great decision. Though it was swollen, I still had a newfound sense of confidence. It’s been 9 months and I’m still in awe. I’m no longer burdened by my nose and can confidently say I look pretty hot now. I can smile, get close to people, and going about life is much easier.”

“Great rhinoplasty results – I had a great experience. Dr shah was very considerate and thorough about the surgery and made the experience as comfortable as possible. I had a Rhinoseptoplasty operation and my results were fantastic. Still minor swelling one month post op but overall a great experience! Great doctor with a very competitive cost for procedure. Also the woman in the office are very helpful and caring! I rate this office 5 stars and recommend dr shah to the next patient!”

I have a nose that I can breathe out of and it looks incredible too. At this point, I am 1-month post-op and incredibly happy. I am shocked at how fast my nose has healed and with minimal swelling too. I can’t thank Dr.Shah enough for restoring my confidence and giving me the nose I didn’t think was possible.”

“Amazing Rhinoplasty Experience with Dr. Manish Shah – Dr. Shah is truly amazing. He listened to every question and concern I had and made me feel at such ease throughout the whole process! The results are better than anything I could have imagined. I am 26 and had wanted a rhinoplasty for 10+ years. Even though I had wanted this for so long, I was a bit nervous about seeing my self and wondering if I would look completely different or…”

“Well over Due! – The best part is the exceptional care and compassion of Dr. Shah and his entire staff. Dr. Shah and his staff are extremely knowledgeable and so personable with exceptional listening skills. Throughout the years of going to Dr. Shah, I have yet to see exaggerated results that are unnatural. That is why I trusted him with the mini face lift. After have injections for years, my age caught up and the only option for the jowls on caving cheeks, disappearing upper lip and turkey neck was a mini lift with fat injection. It has been three weeks since the procedure and I can see some of the improvement already even with the swelling. The bruising was minimal. One side of my face brusied more. The procedure went so smoothly and I loved that I remained awake. The pain was from the numbing injections, just like at the dentist. Afterwards the pain was very manageable. The instructions, vitamin regime and diet and exercise restrictions were clearly given and easy to follow. I am excited to see the final results! Updated on 23 Oct 2019: Posting my before pictures with the one month pictures. It’s amazing to see the improvement after just one month. I have some bruising and swelling so I can only image the improvement will be by the holidays. The fat transfer should be more noticible! The incisions are barely visible even though some of the stitches are still reamining. As with every visit, the staff is so friendly. And for Dr. Shah, what’s the saying “He’s the man!” …. that is what I say regarding Dr. Shah! Updated on 28 Jan 2020: It has been four months since the mini facelift procedure with fat transfer. I see a difference in the jawline but the rest of the face is not what I expected or hoped. I did not want to continue with fillers. Hopefully, at some point in time, the fat transfer starts to work.”

“Exactly What I Wanted – I’ve never disliked my nose but I felt like it could use some refinement. After doing some online research it seemed apparent to me that Dr. Shah was the best Rhinoplasty surgeon in Denver. I booked a consultation and brought a huge list of questions with me. He answered all of my questions very thoroughly, asked me exactly what I was looking for and then told me what his game plan would be. I wanted a slight ski slope nose from the side ( I had a small hump) and for the tip to be refined. I booked the surgery a few months later. The day of the surgery was pretty laid back and easy. The nurses were super nice and they made sure I was comfortable. The anesthesiologist was also really nice and took his time going through every detail to make sure I was safe before I went into the operating room. I went out like a light bulb and the next thing I knew I was waking up and ready to go home. I didn’t feel woozy or out of it and I wasn’t in any pain. I went home and ate dinner, watched a movie and went to bed. I didn’t experience any difficulty sleeping until my Ambien ran out. Sleeping upright, on my back was difficult. Having both nostrils plugged was also hard, even with 2 humidifiers going in my room at all time my mouth was still so dry. The swelling was the worst on day 2 and 3, from there the swelling moved down my cheeks. After one week Dr. Shah took my splint off and cleared my nostrils and it was such a relief to breathe. I have to admit that I thought my nose looked really freaky for the first 3 weeks. I called the office freaking out a little and he immediately got on the phone to reassure me and reminded me that I should be avoiding salt and sleeping propped up on a pillow at night. I had been slacking with both. The swelling distorts everything so much, you just have to remember to be patient. I must had looked at my nose in the mirror for hours each day to the point that my brain wasn’t even sure what a nose was supposed to look like. Just trust you doctor and avoid the mirror for a while. My bruising lasted for 1 month and I had a hemosiderin stain on one eye for about 5 months. I used Auriderm and had IPL facials to speed up the healing of the stain. The scar from the incision faded away in about 4 months, it was easy to cover with makeup within a couple of weeks. Overall, I’m surprised at how pain free the whole ordeal was. I only took my pain medication the first 2 days and then I realized I didn’t need it. I was very careful while recovering and never bumped my nose or had any accidents. I taped my nose at night for the first 2 months. It’s now been 6 months and the tip is still slightly swollen, but not noticeably. I know over the next 6 months my nose will shrink a tiny bit more. I am absolutely THRILLED with the results. My nose still looks like my nose, just smaller and cuter. The little swoop makes my side profile look fabulous. My biggest worry was that my mom would notice and disapprove, she never noticed I had anything done. I’ve only had one person ask me flat out if I had a nose job, and she wanted me to dish who my surgeon was because she thought he did a great job and was considering getting some work done herself. It’s nice not having to contour my nose anymore and I feel like I look cute at any angle in any photo now. Initially I asked Dr. Shah not to post any photos of me, but he did such an amazing job I thought I should post some photos anyway. I must spent 15 hours total on realself studying reviews and I don’t know what I would have done without it so I feel like I owe this review to the community! If anyone wants to pick my brain about anything feel free to comment or message me.”

Again, as a first time surgery patient, I had absolutely no idea what to expect but was made to feel comfortable and relaxed with this office! The front ladies are wonderful as well and they have the utmost respect for me any time I come in early for an appointment – truly great people. All in all, my result was perfection. Dr.Shah is able to see your worries and illustrate them beautifully without completely changing your face and who you are! My nose fits my appearance like a charm and I have already decided that this is the best decision I have made in my life. Again, 10,000/100! :)”

Amazing Rhinoplasty Experience with Dr. Manish Shah – Dr. Shah is truly amazing. He listened to every question and concern I had and made me feel at such ease throughout the whole process! The results are better than anything I could have imagined. I am 26 and had wanted a rhinoplasty for 10+ years. Even though I had wanted this for so long, I was a bit nervous about seeing my self and wondering if I would look completely different or unrecognizable. As you can see, Dr. Shah was able to give me the exact outcome and nose I have always wanted, while keeping it proportional with the rest of my facial features to give me the most natural looking results!”

“I’ve never disliked my nose but I felt like it could use some refinement. After doing some online research it seemed apparent to me that Dr. Shah was the best Rhinoplasty surgeon in Denver. I booked a consultation and brought a huge list of questions with me. He answered all of my questions very thoroughly, asked me exactly what I was looking for and then told me what his game plan would be. I wanted a slight ski slope nose from the side ( I had a small hump) and for the tip to be refined. I booked the surgery a few months later. The day of the surgery was pretty laid back and easy. The nurses were super nice and they made sure I was comfortable. The anesthesiologist was also really nice and took his time going through every detail to make sure I was safe before I went into the operating room. I went out like a light bulb and the next thing I knew I was waking up and ready to go home. I didn’t feel woozy or out of it and I wasn’t in any pain. I went home and ate dinner, watched a movie and went to bed. I didn’t experience any difficulty sleeping until my Ambien ran out. Sleeping upright, on my back was difficult. Having both nostrils plugged was also hard, even with 2 humidifiers going in my room at all time my mouth was still so dry. The swelling was the worst on day 2 and 3, from there the swelling moved down my cheeks. After one week Dr. Shah took my splint off and cleared my nostrils and it was such a relief to breathe. I have to admit that I thought my nose looked really freaky for the first 3 weeks. I called the office freaking out a little and he immediately got on the phone to reassure me and reminded me that I should be avoiding salt and sleeping propped up on a pillow at night. I had been slacking with both. The swelling distorts everything so much, you just have to remember to be patient. I must had looked at my nose in the mirror for hours each day to the point that my brain wasn’t even sure what a nose was supposed to look like. Just trust you doctor and avoid the mirror for a while. My bruising lasted for 1 month and I had a hemosiderin stain on one eye for about 5 months. I used Auriderm and had IPL facials to speed up the healing of the stain. The scar from the incision faded away in about 4 months, it was easy to cover with makeup within a couple of weeks. Overall, I’m surprised at how pain free the whole ordeal was. I only took my pain medication the first 2 days and then I realized I didn’t need it. I was very careful while recovering and never bumped my nose or had any accidents. I taped my nose at night for the first 2 months. It’s now been 6 months and the tip is still slightly swollen, but not noticeably. I know over the next 6 months my nose will shrink a tiny bit more. I am absolutely THRILLED with the results. My nose still looks like my nose, just smaller and cuter. The little swoop makes my side profile look fabulous. My biggest worry was that my mom would notice and disapprove, she never noticed I had anything done. I’ve only had one person ask me flat out if I had a nose job, and she wanted me to dish who my surgeon was because she thought he did a great job and was considering getting some work done herself. It’s nice not having to contour my nose anymore and I feel like I look cute at any angle in any photo now. Initially I asked Dr. Shah not to post any photos of me, but he did such an amazing job I thought I should post some photos anyway. I must spent 15 hours total on realself studying reviews and I don’t know what I would have done without it so I feel like I owe this review to the community! If anyone wants to pick my brain about anything feel free to comment or message me.”

“I received a minor tip rhinoplasty from Dr. Shah and am very pleased with the results. Dr. Shah & his staff always made me feel comfortable and answered any questions I had. I highly recommend Dr. Shah, he was very understanding of any concerns I had and made me feel at ease before and after my surgery.”

“Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty Scheduled Soon – I’ve been thinking about getting a nose job since I could remember and it’s finally happening. I had my preop today and my surgery is scheduled for May 17th. Dr Shah already gave me all the vitamins and basically everything I need for before and after surgery. So far my experience with Dr Shah has been great, he is very easy to talk to and he understood what I wanted; he also made it clear as to what he can and can’t achieve due to me having thicker and more oily skin. I’m very excited yet somewhat scared considering i’ve never had surgery before. I’ll be sure to keep this post updated.”

“Surgery This Friday – So I’ve always been self-conscious of my nose. From the front, it’s perfect. Nice and straight, if a little short for my taste it still fits and looks great. From the side? I look like a rat. I used to get teased about it when I was younger and I’ve always hated my profile. I hide behind my hair, and find it awkward when someone sits next to me, as I know they’re going to look over and see my nose. I mean, it doesn’t consume every waking hour, but it’s like having a low-level hangover where you just don’t feel great, and when it comes to your attention you realize how shitty you really feel. So I decided to finally do something about it. I booked an appointment (about a month out as he’s busy) and went to see the doc. He looked at my nose and didn’t make me feel bad about wanting it to look better. He’s extremely intelligent, really knows his stuff, and will readily tell you in detail about anything you ask about. I love that about him 🙂 He gave me some after images of what he thought would work best, and I almost cried. I mean, I was imagining how I’ll feel when I’m walking past people and how I’ll not be embarrassed by my profile (hide behind my hair, turn my head to the side). I was imagining being able to have a short haircut and not have that insecure feeling in the back of my mind. I know, it sounds really silly but I’m sure if you’re reading this you understand. I’ll never have that perfect movie star profile, but it’ll be perfect for me! So my surgery is Friday. I’ve already started taking the pre-op vitamins and arnica etc. and bought food for a week so hopefully I won’t have to go out and scare little kids with my bandages and bruises. Of course if anyone asks I’ll tell them they should see the other guy! I’ll post pics along the way, and update my review as things happen. Like, I can’t comment on after-care as it hasn’t happened yet! I’m super happy to have this done, and while I’m very excited that I’ll be able to breathe better, I’m even more excited thinking about my new profile 🙂 Oh and I do know that sleeping sitting up is going to SUCK! But I also know that I’m going to do whatever the doc says to do. I have TWO humidifiers and they’ll be going full time. No showering is going to suck as well. But if he told me I’d have to sleep upside down on an anthill full of wasps to get the best results I would. Please don’t ask why the anthill is full of wasps…”

“Very happy with my results – I wanted to repair some damage from a previous broken nose and possibly tweak the shape a little. I consulted with another popular doctor first and was scared off the procedure and decided not to do it. But I had already paid the consultation fee for Dr. Shah so I went to see what he had to say. After my meeting with Dr. Shah, I was put at ease and ready to do it. He addressed all my concerns…”

“Permalips/ right nose rim – I just got 5mm top and bottom permalip lip by Dr. Shah, He also fixed my right nose rim. He numbed me pretty well! The most painful thing was the numbing shots..The procedure went well! I didn’t feel any pain, Dr.Shah and his staff made me feel very comfortable. On the ride home I started feeling pain and still am. I took some pain meds, So hopefully it helps. The pain is like a throbbing b…”

“Wonderful Doctor and Staff, Easy Procedure, Beautiful Results – I had a tip rhinoplasty done by Dr. Shah and enjoyed his very kind and professional staff. The procedure was easy and while I’m still healing I love how natural looking the results are. Other doctors I consulted with encouraged a full rhinoplasty, and I really only sought to address the tip as I liked my nasal bridge shape. Dr. Shah’s talent and excellent training provided for a comfortable procedure and the beautiful balance I was seeking. I feel gorgeous, and can’t thank him enough! I highly recommend Dr. Shah!”

“Passing Happiness on to Others – Yes….I have had quite a battle with the appearance of my nose. I was bit by a dog at the age of 2. This injury damaged me to where my nose never grew a bridge and my nostrils were uneven. I discovered Dr. Shah through a google search, scheduled an appointment, and from my first few minutes in his office I felt that I was in the right place. Not only is his staff polite, kind and attentive, Dr. Shah has a very calm and happy….yet focused personality. He saw the imperfections, that I saw and gave an extremely detailed lay out of what could be done to improve the appearance of this nose that had undermined my self esteem, for so long. Obviously, Dr. Shah is an expert, and if you were to see my before and after photos, you may even call him a magician. However, the things that up him over the top, for me, is that….Every moment with Dr. Shah and his staff, from my initial consultation to pre op, post op, bedside calls and follow up appointments have been nothing less than top notch, 5 Star patient care.”

“After many years of not being able to breath correctly through my nose, I looked up rhinoplasty and Dr. Shah was the first on the list! I scheduled my consultation, and knew I picked the right Dr. The staff and himself were very friendly, professional, and made me feel very comfortable about the procedure. He showed me exactly what he planned on doing and what my ending results would be. After my surgery, I couldn’t be more happier with the results. The outlook came out exactly as I was shown, my nose is narrower and the “hump” has been shaved down to a nice straight slope and the fact of being able to breath out of my nose is extremely satisfying! A big thank you to Dr. Manish Shah and his staff.”

“Great consultation for revision rhinoplasty with Dr. Shah. He was very knowledgeable, informative and friendly. He seemed like he really loves doing rhinoplasty and wants to help me fix the issues I am having. I emailed him with a question and he personally wrote me back. That gave me the impression that he will work alongside me to help me and be there to answer my questions/concerns for my follow up care.”

“Dr Shah ‘s expertise with rhinoplasty was why I chose him. I am very happy with the results and they are continuing to improve monthly. I also had a face lift and that has proved to be life changing. The results have truly exceeded all of my expectations. I look and feel 10-15 years younger. I would highly recommend him. He is a gifted surgeon and also an extremely personable and caring man. He encouraged and welcomed my text messages whenever I had a concern or question about my after care. The entire staff was great with me, especially Brenda and Rebecca. They are both welcoming and kind, and I received excellent care and continuing support from them all.”

This is something I’ve looked into for years and finally discovered a fantastic surgeon one state over from me. Upon meeting with Dr. Shah, I knew he would be the perfect surgeon to work on me.

“Dr. Shah is a physician artist – I live in northern Colorado and have been to a couple of plastic surgeons in my area. My first ps did my first BA in 1999 and the second BA for replacements 17 years later. I was never completely happy with either procedure/result.My second ps does my coolsculpt and botox, both very minor procedures. When I asked him about a lower facelift he said “too early for you, wait about 10 years” so I took my saggy jawline and baby jowls and got a second opinion from Dr. Shah after researching on Realself. So glad I did! Dr. Shah agreed with the other doc that my situation was not dire enough for a lower facelift but recommended lipo of the jawline and microneedling for mild wrinkles. The procedure was an hour and was a piece of cake. Recovery was a breeze, but my bruising was noticable. Glad I took two weeks off of work. I do still have a little numb and a little sore here and there. I am 4 weeks post and could not be happier. The entire experience is what good plastic surgery should be: comfortable, informed, and done by a master plastic surgeon!”

“I love my nose! – I knew that I would be in great hands for my rhinoplasty after my consultation with Dr. Shah. It has been a month now and I am in love with my new nose. It feels amazing to feel confident around people. Overall, my rhinoplasty experience went exactly how I wanted it to be. Dr. Shah is an AMAZING doctor and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a rhinoplasty procedure or any other procedures.”

“Happy with results, thank you! – Just removed the splint today, a week post rhinoplasty. I’m so happy I chose Dr. Shah. I was very nervous going through with it because I had a previous procedure with a less qualified doctor that took multiple revisions and the nose is such a prominent part of your face, I really didn’t want it to get messed up. But Dr. Shah’s expertise in rhinoplasty and his enthusiasm for the art showed me that he is the best doctor for the job. He achieved results that fit gracefully with my features and I already feel more beautiful. The process thus far has been very smooth and I’m looking forward to alittle of the swelling to go down and to be able to be more active again. Thanks Dr. Shah and team!”

He has such an upbeat attitude and he’s incredibly informative, so I booked an appointment with him for December when I would be on break from school.Fast forward to now, I had my surgery at the Renewal Center in Lone Tree, CO with Dr. Shah on the 23rd of December and let me tell you it went swimmingly. At my pre-op appointment just two weeks prior, he provided me with numerous supplements to help with the healing process, detailed instructions, medication for after, and answered more of my questions. On the day of my surgery, he again answered more of my questions and was very thorough about what he would be doing in surgery. His entire team that he worked with that day were also just as amazing. The surgery went quickly and exceedingly well. I return to Dr. Shah’s office next week to remove the splints in my nostrils, the sutures, and splint over my nose. Currently, I have such minimal bruising I think in part due to some of the supplements he had me taking leading up to the surgery and now. He did have to preform an osteotomy on me, remove part of my septum to straighten it out, and configure the cartilage in my bulbous tip. I’m just in complete awe with how quickly the surgery went and how great I am feeling now. I know, too, that I may contact him with any questions or needs up until I see him next. All in all I am ecstatic to see what magic he’s worked on my nose once I get the splints removed and in the coming months! I’ll be happy to post numerous photos of the healing process as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Shah to my family and friends because I know he is not only a skillful surgeon but also a wonderfully upbeat doctor that is bound to make any patient comfortable.”

“Awesome doctor! – Dr. Shah has been doing my injections (Botox and Juvederm) for some time now and had also done a non-surgical nose job for me as well. He is knowledgeable and very kind. I plan have him do my rhinoplasty next year as well. Best doc in Denver, hands down!”

“I talked to Dr. Shah for a while about how i wanted my nose to look etc. After the surgery i was thinking it wasn’t going to turn out the way i wanted it. After the splint came off it was even better than i expected. The whole staff is extremely nice and so is Dr. Shah. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

“I went to Dr Shah after much web searching, and I am so happy and lucky to have found him! I have had two rhinoplasties done in New York, by two different doctors, both with bad results. My nose has never been straight, but nobody explained to me exactly what was going on, how asymmetrical my face was, how the left side of my face is smaller and tighter and it’s pulling the nose with it, and how the cartilage has a memory of going back to how it was. So I was very unhappy with my nose, especially after going thru 2 surgeries.Dr Shah has reviewed my records and my history prior to meeting with him, and we talked at length about the anatomy of my nose/face, what the plan for surgery is, what my expectations should be after. He took all the time I needed to understand the entire process, and not only he is very professional, bright, but friendly too, very pleasant and personable. He never pushed anything on me, like some other doctors do. He answered all my questions, he made me feel very comfortable, and post op he checked regularly on me, even texted me from his cell phone!!!! My experience with him was amazing. His staff is also incredible, and I’m talking here about Brenda, so nice and caring and accomodating each time. I am very happy with the results, I have more confidence than before, and I can take pictures from either side of my profile 🙂 . I still see Dr Shah, now for Botox injections, and he is a master at that too! I would recommend him to anyone.”

“I Adore Dr. Shah! I Had Rhinoplasty and a Revision – Colorado – I met with several doctors before meeting with Dr. Shah and his team, the minute I met with him I knew I there was no need continue looking!! He performed my rhinoplasty in 2011 and did a fabulous job, he took the time to review exactly what I wanted and did exactly that. He recently did a revision on the tip of my nose to correct a “slight” bump that became noticeable (almost 4 years later) after weight loss due to my health. I could not be happier with the final result! He is personable and easy to talk to, I was advised of the many choices on what would work best for me. I always look at the cleanliness of offices and the friendliness of the staff, Dr. Shah and his staff go far and beyond! I am absolutely pleased with my results and would highly highly recommend Dr. Shah to my friends are family.

Thank you Dr. Shah!”

“Nose Reshaping – Denver, CO – Dr. Shah did a great job with my nose transformation I had never liked my nose I felt it was bulky on the tip and a bit wide on the sides. It has been a month and a half after surgery (open rhinoplasty) and I could see the difference and am very happy with the results! I had met Dr. Shah when I was 19 yrs old (5 years ago) and after having one consultation with him I decided he was doctor who was going to assist me, Dr. Shah took his time and explained in detail what type of nose matched with my face features and anwered all of my questions necessary to proceed with the surgery. I believe he is trustworthy, dedicated, and professional.”

“Nose Turned into Perfection – I talked to Dr. Shah for a while about how i wanted my nose to look etc. After the surgery i was thinking it wasn’t going to turn out the way i wanted it. After the splint came off it was even better than i expected. The whole staff is extremely nice and so is Dr. Shah. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

“Amazing Rhinoplasty/Septoplasty Experience – Wyoming, WY I visited with Dr. Shah back in May for a consultation on rhinoplasty. This is something I’ve looked into for years and finally discovered a fantastic surgeon one state over from me. Upon meeting with Dr. Shah, I knew he would be the perfect surgeon to work on me. He has such an upbeat attitude and he’s incredibly informative, so I booked an appointment with him for December when I would be on break from school. Fast forward to now, I had my surgery at the Renewal Center in Lone Tree, CO with Dr. Shah on the 23rd of December and let me tell you it went swimmingly. At my pre-op appointment just two weeks prior, he provided me with numerous supplements to help with the healing process, detailed instructions, medication for after, and answered more of my questions. On the day of my surgery, he again answered more of my questions and was very thorough about what he would be doing in surgery. His entire team that he worked with that day were also just as amazing. The surgery went quickly and exceedingly well. I return to Dr. Shah’s office next week to remove the splints in my nostrils, the sutures, and splint over my nose. Currently, I have such minimal bruising I think in part due to some of the supplements he had me taking leading up to the surgery and now. He did have to preform an osteotomy on me, remove part of my septum to straighten it out, and configure the cartilage in my bulbous tip. I’m just in complete awe with how quickly the surgery went and how great I am feeling now. I know, too, that I may contact him with any questions or needs up until I see him next. All in all I am ecstatic to see what magic he’s worked on my nose once I get the splints removed and in the coming months! I’ll be happy to post numerous photos of the healing process as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Shah to my family and friends because I know he is not only a skillful surgeon but also a wonderfully upbeat doctor that is bound to make any patient comfortable.”

“Best Experience So Far – Denver, CO – I went to Dr Shah after much web searching, and I am so happy and lucky to have found him! I have had two rhinoplasties done in New York, by two different doctors, both with bad results. My nose has never been straight, but nobody explained to me exactly what was going on, how asymmetrical my face was, how the left side of my face is smaller and tighter and it’s pulling the nose with it, and how the cartilage has a memory of going back to how it was. So I was very unhappy with my nose, especially after going thru 2 surgeries.Dr Shah has reviewed my records and my history prior to meeting with him, and we talked at length about the anatomy of my nose/face, what the plan for surgery is, what my expectations should be after. He took all the time I needed to understand the entire process, and not only he is very professional, bright, but friendly too, very pleasant and personable. He never pushed anything on me, like some other doctors do. He answered all my questions, he made me feel very comfortable, and post op he checked regularly on me, even texted me from his cell phone!!!! My experience with him was amazing. His staff is also incredible, and I’m talking here about Brenda, so nice and caring and accomodating each time. I am very happy with the results, I have more confidence than before, and I can take pictures from either side of my profile 🙂 . I still see Dr Shah, now for Botox injections, and he is a master at that too! I would recommend him to anyone.”

“Tip Plasty to Refine Bulbous Nose – Denver, CO – Incredible staff and perfect doctor for my procedure. I looked around and met a few doctors but none made me feel as comfortable as Dr. Shah. I had to travel out of state to see him but it was well worth it. He takes his time and gives you exactly what you ask for. I would highly recommend to anyone!”

“I Adore Dr. Shah! I Had Rhinoplasty and a Revision – Colorado – I met with several doctors before meeting with Dr. Shah and his team, the minute I met with him I knew I there was no need continue looking!! He performed my rhinoplasty in 2011 and did a fabulous job, he took the time to review exactly what I wanted and did exactly that. He recently did a revision on the tip of my nose to correct a “slight” bump that became noticeable (almost 4 years later) after weight loss due to my health. I could not be happier with the final result! He is personable and easy to talk to, I was advised of the many choices on what would work best for me. I always look at the cleanliness of offices and the friendliness of the staff, Dr. Shah and his staff go far and beyond! I am absolutely pleased with my results and would highly highly recommend Dr. Shah to my friends are family. It is hard to find genuine people who make you feel comfortable and are an expert in their field. Dr. Shah is second to none and he is BOARD CERTIFIED, so important in this industry.

“Returning Patient!!! TUMMY TUCK and In-Office Rhinoplasty – Denver, CO – Dr. Shah is the best of the best. I trust the man with my life. I have never met anybody that really cares about his patients well being as much as he does.”

“Need to Breath and Fixed my Croocked Nose. Denver, CO – Making the decision to go through with fixing my crooked nose was both a simple and difficult decision. Simple, because I wanted to breathe again and have a beautiful nose to look at. Difficult, because I had no clue regarding who I was going to chose to perform such an important surgery. It’s my face, so the decision making process was quite lengthy. I did my homework on the surgeons in my area and extended it to include all of Colorado. I not only read online reviews but also went to meet several surgeons in order to see if my desires for my new nose were possible. I finally found Dr. Manish Shah. Brenda and the rest of Dr. Shah’s staff were very accommodating and reassuring when it came to the million questions I had. During my initial consultation, I was shown what Dr. Shah would do to correct my nose with a computerized animation that was instrumental in setting expectations. This was extremely helpful since I’m more of a visual person. In addition to the obvious fear about the outcome, I was terrified regarding the pain associated with the surgery and specter of looking like a MMA fighter right before Christmas. However, in following Dr. Shah’s strict before and after surgery care; I was pleasantly surprised to find I had minimal bruising and swelling. Not only was the pain much less than what I expected, but the recovery time was much faster. All of these I contribute to Dr. Shah impeccable skills as a surgeon and as a doctor that truly cares about his patients comfort both before and after surgery. Dr. Shah was always available for questions day or night, which made this experience much more pleasant. I could not be happier about the results. I would highly recommend Dr. Shah, and I would choose him again for any future procedures I might have.”

I never would have discovered him through the endless pool of plastic surgeons out there. After contacting several Plastic Surgeons in the Denver Metro Area and doing my research. I knew after having a consultation with Dr. Manish Shah that he was the one I would choose to do this procedure. Dr. Manish Shah, and his staff are TOP NOTCH. I have never met a surgeon with a better bedside manner than Dr. Manish Shah. After meeting him at my consultation he throughly explained the procedure that I would need done. Not once did I feel rushed, and felt like he took the time to listen to my questions and concerns. His office staff is great and respond immediately to calls and emails.Dr. Manish Shah, went beyond my expectations and I couldn’t have asked for a greater outcome on my procedure.

He made me feel like I was the most important thing to ever walk into his presence.I thank, Dr. Manish Shah, for my new found confidence and ego boost. It’s refreshing to finally have a life long problem resolved. I walked into his office an 8/10 and walked out a 10/10 with a smile (I never smile).

“Very, Very Happy with Nose- Far Exceeded my Expectations!! – Denver, CO – After doing a bit of research on rhinoplasty in general to address some of my concerns as a Rn, I was happy to discover the opportunity on Realself to get a basic sense of how surgeons approach the surgery via their answers to posted questions. Dr. Manish’s posts, super-informative and consistent with his having both significant procedural experience and – just as importantly – aesthetic giftedness, made narrowing down potential surgeons easier. From the day of my consultation, Dr. Manish and his team have been nothing but personable, professional, and caring. All of my questions have always been addressed in a timely and supportive manner, and emphatically, I am thrilled with the outcome!! Also, because I only had the tip worked on, I elected to use only local anesthesia, which gave me the opportunity to witness Dr. Shah’s confidence, competency and passion for his work in action (not to mention how he is always courteous to his staff as well as his patients). I highly recommend him!!”

I was very afraid it would look like a nose job, but he knew exactly what he was doing, so it came out perfect. He listened, gave great advice and my new nose looks so natural. I feel so much more confident, would recommend him to anyone.”

“Droopy Nose Turned Cute – Denver, CO – I have visited a different surgeon prior to meeting Dr. Shah. As soon as I met Dr. Shah, without hesitation I wanted him to fix my nose. He was very understanding of my nose and the nose structure. Told me what’s going to happen and how it’s going to happen. Very polite and not pushy. He doesn’t point out another flaw that you have and try to fix it. He focuses on what you want and improves it which in turn brings out other features of your face as well. Very professional, very compassionate.”

“Thrilled with the Results! – Englewood, CO – Dr. Shah did such a beautiful job on my nose. I was so afraid of looking plastic but, this is so natural! Many people can’t even tell, they just think I lost weight or something. I love the way I look, now! I also had a blephoplasty (that’s why my total cost was a little higher) and it has healed perfectly.”

“The Best of the Best – Englewood, CO – I was so extremely lucky to find Dr. Shah who was able to reconstruct my nose after four rhinoplasty surgeries with other doctors in Denver that were performed incorrectly. One of these doctors is even well known in town for working with celebrities, but none came close to Dr. Shah’s skill and ability and level of patient care. Dr. Shah actually listened to what I wanted and took the time to make sure that he fully understood what I was looking for and how to best achieve it due to the extensive work that was done previously on my nose. It has been over a year now and I couldn’t be happier with the result! I also had a lip implant and a chin reduction surgery with Dr. Shah as well as various fillers and a fat transfer in my cheeks. I wouldn’t go to anyone else after seeing how amazing my results have been!! Dr. Shah is truly a master at his craft and on the forefront of the plastic surgery industry when it comes to cutting edge technology and procedures. His education and training at one of the best schools in the country and his ability to relate on a personal level is a rare combination to find in a doctor of his caliber. He truly understands aesthetics and the science behind balancing the face and body. In addition, Dr. Shah’s staff is wonderful and such a pleasure to work with. TJ, the nurse on staff, was so fabulous from the first day I walked in the office. She is extremely knowledgeable and kind and has a great sense of humor. You can tell she really cares about each individual client and made my post-operative care experience the best I’ve ever had. The healing process was so much more pleasant and enjoyable than any of my prior surgeries. She and Dr. Shah make an amazing team! I wouldn’t go to any other plastic surgeon in Denver again, and that is saying a lot from someone who has seen the number of doctors that I have. Dr. Shah is the best of the best!!!!”
