title: The less-than-satisfactory rhinoplasty: comparison of patient and surgeon satisfaction.
abstract: An analysis of patient response to less-than-ideal results in rhinoplasty reveals a marked discrepancy between the way patients react and the way in which surgeons think they would react. We feel that, by showing less-than-ideal results to prospective patients, we may be able to develop a method to predict the degree of dissatisfaction that a patient might show to a result that was less than ideal.
