What really makes male rhinoplasty different — and why do thick or oily skin types change everything?
In this candid and deeply personal episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with renowned photographer Anthony, who opens up about his real-life journey through male rhinoplasty with thick, oily skin — from hesitation and trust, to recovery, confidence, and unexpected life changes. This isn’t a surface-level conversation. Together, they break down the critical differences between male and female rhinoplasty, why widening a nose can sometimes be the right aesthetic move for men, and why thick skin dramatically impacts swelling, healing, and long-term results. Anthony shares what it’s actually like when the cast comes off — the swelling, the reality check, and why being unhappy at first can actually be a good sign.
Dr. Rahban also explains why he refuses to use photo morphs, why breathing issues are so often overlooked in men, and how proper consultation separates ethical surgeons from the rest. But this episode goes beyond surgery. Anthony talks about the confidence shift that followed — being unrecognized by clients, family members not noticing anything “obvious,” dating with newfound self-assurance, and finally no longer hiding behind glasses or distractions.
If you’ve ever wondered:
- Whether rhinoplasty will make you “lose yourself”
- Why thick or oily skin changes recovery timelines
- How masculinity is preserved (not erased) in male rhinoplasty
- Or whether aesthetic surgery can genuinely improve how you show up in life
…this episode is for you. This is not about perfection.
It’s about alignment, confidence, breathing better — and living fully.
