Why Is Rhinoplasty One Of The Most Important Surgeries?

Perhaps no other operation in plastic surgery has a greater impact in enhancing the way you look than rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty is a procedure designed to improve the shape of the nose. Even a subtle change can have a big impact on the attractiveness and balance of the face.

Primary rhinoplasty indicates that it is the first time an operation is being performed. The first operation offers the best opportunity to obtain an excellent and predictable outcome. Seeking out a rhinoplasty specialist for this first operation significantly increases the chances of obtaining an excellent rhinoplasty result and decreases your chances of a revision.

The most important first step in a successful rhinoplasty outcome is listening to the patient and really understanding what their hopes and desires are. Then delivering on that expectation. Your plastic surgeon's goal in primary rhinoplasty is to create a nose that enhances the attractiveness of the entire face while preserving or improving nasal function (breathing). Each nose is unique, therefore, for each case, an individualized operative plan is developed that takes into account the patient's anatomy and cosmetic goals.

Rhinoplasty is the most technically demanding and difficult operations in plastic surgery. No other operation requires the depth and breadth of specialized rhinoplasty techniques required to handle the wide range of nasal types. Finding a plastic surgeon whose experience and unique training background in Otolaryngology (ENT) followed by a Fellowship in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery will allow your surgeon to give patients the highest level of care possible. Creating noses that are attractive, natural looking and functionally safe accounts for Plastic surgeon and high rate of patient satisfaction and low rate of revision surgery.

Your plastic surgeon's training and experience allows him to take on the most challenging and unusual cases. He can successfully help patients with challenging tips (boxy tip, infantile, broad, ptotic nasal tip, overprojected tip, underprojected tip, over-rotated tip, under-rotated tip), nostril disproportions, traumatic noses (deviated nose, crooked nose saddle nose, fractured nose), size issues (too big, too small), skin (thick-skin nose, thin skin), and length issues (too short, too long).

Chin Augmentation the relationship between the nose and chin is often overlooked when assessing the aesthetics of the face. Many individuals with small or undersized chin are not aware how much this feature is contributing to the illusion of a larger nose. In many cases, only minor refinements of the nose is required to significantly improve the nasal aesthetics when accompanied with chin augmentation. There are many options for chin augmentation. The most common approach is using a chin implant to obtain the desired results. This is most commonly done at the time of rhinoplasty with minimal additional recovery.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty is performed on non Caucasian patients. Finding the right plastic surgeon who specializes on a variety of ethnicities, including the Hispanic nose, the Middle Eastern nose, the Asian nose, and the African American nose are all things to consider when looking for a doctor. Each ethnic group has unique features that need to be respected when performing ethnic rhinoplasty. Otherwise, the results will look unnatural and unattractive.

Secondary Rhinoplasty (Revision Rhinoplasty) is a special part of a plastic surgeons practice. This is a specialty within a specialty. Patients with cosmetic or functional (trouble breathing) problems following primary rhinoplasty often seek your plastic surgeon for resolution of these issues. These patients are often very emotional about there condition and often travel from around the country in hopes of correcting their nasal deformity. Secondary rhinoplasty or revision rhinoplasty are often the most challenging cases. They require the highest level of planning, judgment and surgical expertise. Often these cases require a wide range of techniques including, reconstruction with multiple grafts and occasionally rib grafts.
