Rhinoplasty: Sculpting Beautiful Noses with Dr. Scott Andochick

Expert Nose Surgery in Frederick, MD

Dr. Scott Andochick, with his unique expertise in dentistry and craniofacial surgery, is exceptionally skilled at performing rhinoplasty on noses of all shapes and sizes. His specialization extends to secondary rhinoplasties for patients seeking refinement of previous procedure results.

Why Consider Rhinoplasty?

• Improve facial proportion
• Reduce nasal size
• Correct an overly arched (Roman) nose
• Reshape a crooked or elongated nose tip
• Treat congenital nasal deformities
• Reconstruct a previously broken nose
• Alleviate breathing problems

The Recovery Process

Following rhinoplasty, patients should adhere closely to Dr. Andochick's post-operative instructions and attend all follow-up appointments. Key points in the recovery process include:

• Initial swelling and puffiness in the first 24-48 hours
• Potential aches and headaches manageable with oral pain medication
• Application of splint, bandages, or gauze to aid healing and minimize movement
• Possible bruising around the eyes, peaking after three days
• Reduction of most swelling and bruising within two weeks
• Avoidance of nose blowing for at least one week post-surgery
• Recommendation to sneeze with an open mouth to reduce nasal pressure

Patients are reminded that any discomfort experienced is temporary.
