Shah Aesthetic Surgery: Manish H. Shah, M.D., FACS

I am 6 weeks into my tip rhinoplasty surgery and am so happy with the results. From day one everyone was amazing. Brenda at the front desk is always friendly and more than happy to accommodate. Dr.
Shah explained the entire procedure in detail. I felt completely safe and comfortable in his hands. He even let me play my own music during the procedure.
I opted out of taking Valium to numb the pain for the anesthesia shots and he did a great job talking me through it and telling me when to breath. The procedure itself was somewhat trying. There was no pain but a lot of tugging and pulling. In retrospect, the Valium probably would have helped me relax, but using my breath worked just fine. There was only point at the end when some of the anesthesia wore off and I could feel some stitches. By then, getting the shots, again, would have caused more pain and I relied on focusing on my breath. Overall, I give the experience a 9 out 10. And, the results 10 out of 10.

I found Dr. Shaw on RealSelf, I was looking for some skin care advice and read some of his comments. I don’t live in Denver so I couldn’t come for a consult but was very impressed with his comments and so I emailed his practice. He got back to me personally and spent a few emails advising me on what to use and how to treat my skin. Needless to say my skin looks AMAZING!!! I can’t tell you how many doctors I’ve been to who are too busy, or charge a ton for bad advice, he did neither! If you are looking for a genuine doctor who will go out of his way to help you and give you great treatment, go to Dr. Shaw. My skin looks the best it’s ever been, and I’ve yet to meet him in person!

So I’ve been trying a lot harder to take care of my skin lately… I try to buy the best products and really protect it from the sun.
If you live in Colorado, that’s easier said than done because we spend any free time we have outside playing.
I had previous acne scarring which Dr. Shah treats with micro needling.
LOOOOOOOOOVVE!
I also pick up all of my skin care from him.
The office is in a great location and not too far from home. I rarely ever wait longer than a few minutes to see Dr. Shah. The man really knows his stuff and doesn’t mind explaining things to you. He has great bedside manners.
5 stars for sure!

I feel honored to write a review on Unilocal regarding Dr. Manish Shah, as he is exceptional as a surgeon and as a personable doctor in the office. Dr Shah takes the necessary time to discuss the problem (for me it was my nose needing some tweaking) and how he would approach the correction through surgery. I’m impressed that he took photographs of the face at each of my appointments – and gave me a thumb drive with the photos – so there would be a recorded history of before and after. Dr. Shah is one who has you feeling very at ease and confidant in his work. His resume is most impressive (found on his website) and is why I selected him. The office staff is likewise professional and personable — a more desired combination for a medical office visit.

Dr Shah is the best. I would highly recommend him. I had rhinoplasty over a year ago. After other consultations where they told me to «pick a nose I like» I was happy to find Dr. Shah. He actually takes your nose and face in to consideration. His policy is that he would rather be conservative, then give you a nose that doesn’t look good on you or would cause you to have problems breathing. So I went in for my initial surgery. I really couldn’t believe how little pain, swelling, and bruising I had. I was ready to go out in public after only a week and basically only took Tylenol. I never needed anything stronger. You then have frequent check ups with him where he takes pictures and monitors your healing. He has you wait a full year until your nose is fully healed, then he will do some slight revisions to if you would like for just a small fee that covers the supply costs. He never charges you again for his services. He just wants you to be happy, but within reason. This is what I like the most about him. He really always has your best interest in mind. Also, he give you his personal cell phone and calls you himself after surgery to make sure you are doing ok. His staff is all really nice. Jennifer, the receptionist, is awesome. She knows who you are when you walk in and remembers where you work, recent events, etc. and asks about them.

I went to Dr. Shah for a mommy makeover. This included a breast lift, tummy tuck, liposuction of the upper arms, abdomen and flanks. I could not be more pleased. I felt I had good pre-​op instructions from Dr. Shah, good hospital care, and good follow up care. It is now two months after, and I think my results are amazing. He set back the clock 20 years for me. I would trust him with a family member.

If this review helps one person it is worth writing. I had the absolute worst experience with Dr. Shah, not only did I find him condescending with horrible bedside manner, he is a terrible doctor and does not know what he is doing. I came to him for a rhinoplasty, I had a severely deviated septum and hump in my nose that I was hoping to have removed. I trusted that Dr Shah could do the job, as he said he could and what a HUGE mistake that was. Over 6 months after my surgery I had horrible black eyes, I still couldn’t breathe and the hump in my nose was still there. After talking to many friends and finding out that this in fact was not normal I looked for another dr’s opinion and in doing so found out that Dr. Shah had completely crushed my nose, he had broken the bones in my nose into tiny pieces which explained why I couldn’t breathe and why my eyes were so horribly black. I talked to Dr Shah about the situation and tried to get him to do the right thing (refund at least half of the money I had paid him for the surgery), he chose not to. I am very fortunate as I was able to find a new dr that could fix the problems that he had created with my nose, but I am writing this because if I can somehow stop someone from making the same mistake I did by letting Dr Shah operate on me, then I am at least helping someone.
