Before and 6 weeks post nasal bump removal and thinning of tiphinoplasty and Nasal Surgery improve the most dominant feature of your face.
Rhinoplasty (nose job)
The nose being the most dominant feature of our faces can be significantly improved with conservative changes. Our goal is to make the changes that will improve your
appearance without making them obv
ious. Modest changes in the nasal bridge and tip change a person's appearance dramatically. My goal is to change your appearance without anyone else knowing.
Bumps and irregularities of the nasal bridge are typically "filed" down. Breaking of bones is rarely necessary. Small incisions placed within the nose allow resection and repositioning of the wide and projecting nasal tip.
Nasal surgery is relatively painless. Swelling prevents noticable results prior to one week. Some patients return to work in 5 days or less. Occaisional bruising lasts 12 to 14 days. It takes six weeks to see the majority of changes. Tapes and a small splint are worn for one week.
Nasal Surgery
Difficulty breathing through the nose is caused by several conditions. Allergies, smoking and hayfever cause swelling of the nasal lining. Thereby partially closing the airway. Oral antihistamines and nasal sprays usually temporarily correct most conditions. If these treatments are not effective opening of the airway may be necessary by resecting and shifting the nasal septum or resecting enlarged turbinates (nasal glands). Sinus conditions producing pressure in the face and headaches may be improved by septal or turbinate surgery. Severe sinus conditions are best managed by ear, nose and throat specialists.
Surgically correctable conditions are often reimbursible by insurance carriers and can be addressed at the time of cosmetic proceedures. Medical insurance will only reimburse for recent nasal injuries or breathing dificulties. Please schedule a visit so we can evaluate and examine you to determine what is the most appropriate option.
