Rhinoplasty North Bethesda, MD | Plastic Surgery Institute of Washington

Understanding Rhinoplasty Surgery

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to address the symmetry, shape, size, and structure of the nose. This transformative procedure can help patients achieve a more refined facial appearance while potentially resolving functional breathing concerns.

Cosmetic and Functional Benefits

• Improve nose appearance and symmetry
• Enhance facial proportions
• Correct nasal bumps or structural irregularities
• Improve breathing functionality
• Boost self-confidence

Surgical Approaches

The Plastic Surgery Institute of Washington offers two primary rhinoplasty techniques: open and closed rhinoplasty. Each approach is carefully selected based on the patient's unique anatomical structure and aesthetic goals.

Open Rhinoplasty

Open rhinoplasty allows surgeons maximum visibility and precision. Small incisions are strategically made in the columella, enabling comprehensive nasal reshaping with meticulous attention to detail.

Candidate Considerations

Ideal candidates for rhinoplasty in North Bethesda, MD typically:

• Are in good overall health
• Have fully developed nasal structures
• Possess realistic aesthetic expectations
• Seek functional or cosmetic nasal improvements

Rhinoplasty Recovery and Expectations

Recovery from rhinoplasty is a gradual process. Patients can expect initial swelling and bruising, which typically subsides within two weeks. The final refined result continues to develop over 12 months as nasal tissues stabilize.

Complementary Procedures

Rhinoplasty can be effectively combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures such as chin augmentation or eyelid surgery to achieve comprehensive facial harmony.
