SURGERY

Rhinoplasty surgery, commonly referred to as a “nose job”, seeks to improve the overall appearance of the nose while maintaining or enhancing its function. 

 

Our Mission is to Provide World-Class Service

COMMON PATIENT CONCERNS
PROCEDURE SPECIFICS
BEFORE SURGERY
AFTER SURGERY

Overall dissatisfaction with the appearance of the nose, the presence of a hump, excessive width, asymmetry, tilt, droopy tip, and other specific concerns.

 

The incisions for a Rhinoplasty surgery can be well camouflaged and heal without a trace. Most often, incisions are made in both nostrils. In the “open” approach to a rhinoplasty, an additional incision is made across the columella (a structure situated between both nostrils). These incisions are all made in order to lift the skin, and to manipulate both bone and cartilage so as to modify the shape and contour of the nose. At the conclusion of this operation, internal and external splints are placed to ensure that the nose remains stable as it heals.

In most cases, general anesthesia is used.

 

We will perform imaging prior to surgery in order to both help you visualize the desired appearance of your nose, and to develop the surgical plan needed to obtain your most natural-looking result.

 

Rhinoplasty is an ambulatory procedure, which means that you can expect to return home the same day as your surgery. You should plan to take about 5-7 days off from work, as the healing period is crucial for achieving your optimal result. You can also expect to be icing regularly following surgery, and we will show you how to apply ointment to your suture lines in order to prevent infection. Nasal dressings, splints, and sutures are removed about 7 days after surgery. In most cases, medication advancements can be used to minimize the appearance of post-operative bruising past 7 days.
