Nose Job (Rhinoplasty) is one of the most common cosmetic procedures
What Is a Rhinoplasty and Why Is It Done?
Rhinoplasty ("nose job") is a surgical procedure that alters the shape of the nose with the goal of cosmetic and functional improvements. Rhinoplasty is performed to correct breathing problems related to the nose or to correct external irregularities of the nose that has occurred because of trauma or birth defects. Cosmetic rhinoplasty is performed on normal noses to improve their cosmetic appearance and bring harmony to the entire face. Rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of your nose, or change the size or shape of the tip, the bridge, or nostrils, to make the nose match the face.
Who Is a Good Candidate For a Cosmetic Nose Job?
A good candidate for a cosmetic nose job is anyone with a nose that does not match the face. Candidates should also be in good physical health, be psychologically stable and have realistic expectations.
How Do I Know If My Expectations Are Realistic?
If you are considering rhinoplasty, be sure to discuss your expectations with your surgeon. During your initial consultation, you will be asked what bothers you about your nose and how you would like to change it.
The surgeon will evaluate the structures of your nose such as the underlying nasal bones and cartilage, your overlying skin, the breathing and your other facial features. After this evaluation, the surgeon can tell you if expectations are realistic and whether the rhinoplasty will enhance your natural facial beauty.
What is a "Perfect" or "Ideal" Nose?
A perfect of ideal nose is a nose that brings out the natural beauty of the rest of the face and functions normally during breathing. Rhinoplasty or nose job can be combined with other facial cosmetic procedures such as chin implants fat transfers and face lifts to create the best cosmetic result. The facial plastic surgeon can describe the facial features that make you unique and describe the changes that would enhance your appearance.
How Is a Rhinoplasty Done?
Rhinoplasty is usually done as an outpatient procedure using either general or local anesthesia. With general anesthesia, you sleep through the operation. With local anesthesia, you are sedated and the nose is numbed so you are relaxed and unable to feel the pain. The incisions are made either at the base of the nose or inside the nostrils. The inner bone and cartilage are reshaped to correct the nasal deformities.
What Is a Structural Rhinoplasty?
Structural Rhinoplasty is cosmetic surgery of the nose with special attention to the functional and breathing structure of the nose. This is done by reshaping the nose without removal of important frameworks of the nose. Sometimes cartilage has to be added to strengthen the nose and help breathing.
What are the complications of Rhinoplasty?
Some of the most common complications of rhinoplasty are nasal irregularities, nasal obstruction and scaring. These can be minimized by careful preoperative procedure and a skilled surgeon.
