Understanding Nose Surgery (Rhinoplasty)

A rhinoplasty procedure offers comprehensive solutions for patients seeking aesthetic improvements or functional corrections to their nose. This surgical intervention can address multiple concerns, from cosmetic reshaping to resolving breathing obstructions.

What is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a "nose job", is a precise surgical procedure designed to modify the nose's structure. The technique can involve multiple approaches, including:

• Removing nasal humps
• Refining bulbous or thick nasal tips
• Narrowing nasal width
• Correcting congenital or trauma-induced deformities

Ideal Candidates for Rhinoplasty

The most suitable rhinoplasty candidates typically include individuals who:

• Are unhappy with their nose's appearance
• Desire improved facial symmetry
• Experience breathing difficulties
• Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

Surgical Procedure

The rhinoplasty procedure is performed under general anesthesia on an outpatient basis. Dr. Brenman utilizes advanced 3-dimensional imaging and computer simulation to plan and visualize optimal results, ensuring personalized surgical strategy.

Recovery and Results

Recovery involves temporary swelling and bruising, with external splints typically removed 5-7 days post-surgery. Patients can expect to see initial results within three to four months, with final outcomes becoming fully apparent after approximately one year.

Potential Procedure Benefits

• Enhanced facial proportionality
• Improved nasal function
• Increased self-confidence
• Correction of structural irregularities
