What is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a “nose job”, is a popular surgical procedure designed to enhance the shape, size, and overall appearance of the nose, often bringing greater balance to facial features. Whether to correct structural issues, improve breathing, or refine the nose’s aesthetic appearance, rhinoplasty can have a transformative impact. At Specialized Plastic Surgery, our board-certified plastic surgeons offer customized rhinoplasty procedures, allowing patients to achieve a nose that complements their unique facial structure while improving both function and appearance.

Why Choose Rhinoplasty?

Many individuals choose rhinoplasty for both cosmetic and functional reasons, as this procedure can provide long-lasting improvements in appearance and nasal function. Benefits of rhinoplasty include:

Enhanced Facial Harmony

Rhinoplasty can create better proportion and balance between the nose and other facial features.

Rhinoplasty can correct structural issues that cause breathing problems, such as deviated septum.

By modifying the nose’s bridge, tip, or nostrils, rhinoplasty can smooth out bumps, lift the nasal tip, and address wide or flattered nostrils.

Unlike some cosmetic procedures, rhinoplasty results are permanent, allowing you to enjoy lasting benefits.

If you’re seeking to improve the appearance or function of your nose, rhinoplasty may be the ideal solution for your needs.

Who is a Good Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

Ideal candidates for rhinoplasty are healthy individuals who are unhappy with the appearance or function of their nose and have realistic expectations about the results. You may be a good candidate if:

  • You have specific concerns about the size, shape, or structure of your nose
  • You are experiencing breathing issues due to nasal structure
  • You are at least 16 years old, as the nose should be fully developed
  • You are a non-smoker, as smoking can interfere with healing

During your consultation, our expert plastic surgeons will assess your facial features, nasal structure, and aesthetic goals to determine if rhinoplasty is the right option for you.

Refined Rhinoplasty Techniques for Enhanced Form and Function

At Specialized Plastic Surgery, we offer various rhinoplasty techniques to address each patient’s specific needs. Our plastic surgeons will recommend the most appropriate approach for your anatomy and desired outcomes.

  • Closed Rhinoplasty: This technique involves incisions inside the nostrils, making it a minimally invasive option for reshaping the nose without visible scarring.
  • Open Rhinoplasty: In cases requiring more extensive reshaping, an incision is made across the columella (the tissue between the nostrils) for greater access to the nasal structure.
  • Septoplasty: For patients with a deviated septum, this technique corrects nasal structure to improve breathing while maintaining or enhancing nasal appearance.
  • Revision Rhinoplasty: For patients who have had previous nasal surgery, revision rhinoplasty can correct aesthetic or functional issues with advanced techniques.

Each rhinoplasty is fully customized to meet the unique needs of the patient, ensuring a natural-looking, balanced result that aligns with their facial proportions.

Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on the extent of the procedure. A rhinoplasty procedure typically takes between 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity and whether it’s a primary or revision surgery. Here’s an overview of what to expect during your rhinoplasty:

  1. Incision Placement: The plastic surgeon makes incisions based on the chosen technique (closed or open), allowing access to the bone and cartilage.
  2. Reshaping the Nose: Bone, cartilage, and tissue are carefully adjusted to achieve the desired shape, enhancing both appearance and function.
  3. Closing the Incisions: The incisions are closed meticulously, with sutures placed to minimize visible scarring.

Our team uses advanced techniques to ensure optimal results and prioritizes comfort, precision, and patient safety at every step.

Recovery after rhinoplasty varies depending on the extent of the procedure, but most patients experience mild swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication. Here’s what to expect during your recovery:

  • Initial Healing Period: You may have a splint or bandages on your nose for support and protection.
  • Return to Daily Activities: Most patients can resume work or light activities within 1-2 weeks, but should avoid strenuous activity for several weeks.
  • Final Results: Swelling gradually subsides over several months, with final results visible within a year as the nose settles into its new shape.

We will provide detailed aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing and results.
