Proportion, shape, and balance are addressed with rhinoplasty procedures. Patients who have the following concerns may benefit from this treatment:
• Profile shows depressions or humps on the bridge of the nose
• Nostrils are unusually shaped or positioned
• The width of the nose is not in proportion or balance with the face
• Nasal tip is drooping, hooked, upturned, or bulbous
• Poor nasal symmetry
In some cases, patients may also have rhinoplasty to address a deviated septum, which is a legitimate concern for patients who have a poor nasal structure that impedes their ability to breathe due to poor airflow. This procedure may be done along with cosmetic changes.
What to expect from your rhinoplasty?
The procedure is a surgical treatment and involves anesthetics and healing time. Patients are urged to take some time off of work and social activities after their procedure to ensure that they are resting and caring for their post-operative needs. Patients are given instructions as to how to care for the area after surgery and how to reduce their risk of developing an infection at the incision sites. We also encourage a follow-up appointment to monitor the healing process and help patients with any questions or concerns they may have.
