Rhinoplasty: Small Changes, Big Difference

Nasal reshaping and reduction, known as the rhinoplasty, is among one of the most prevalent cosmetic procedures performed worldwide. Through the rhinoplasty procedure, Dr. Savalia aims to improve the shape, size, and overall appearance of a patient’s nose. The goal of the procedure is to shape a natural looking nose that fits with the patient’s bone structure and features. Patient’s often times also suffer from airway obstruction and have a difficult time breathing through their nose. This is a concern that can be corrected in conjunction with techniques to improve the outward appearance of the nose, or as an individual procedure.

When establishing whether or not you are a good candidate for a rhinoplasty, there are several important factors to take into account; such as: is your nose too large or too wide for your face, is there a hump on the bridge, is the tip too thick, enlarged, or does it droop, are the nostrils excessively flared, and is the nose off center or crooked. Regardless of your main concern, it is vitally important to maintain realistic goals and expectations. Dr. Savalia will discuss what can and cannot be accomplished through your rhinoplasty procedure, and if expectations are realistic, then your results will be thoroughly fulfilling.

With celebrities like Ashlee Simpson and Ashley Tisdale obtaining such sensational results with the rhinoplasty procedure, increasing numbers of men and women alike are looking to achieve the nose that they have always desired through a surgery. Small physical changes to the nose, millimeters added, subtracted, or shifted, can produce a significant effect on one’s overall appearance. In many cases, all of the incisions are placed on the inside of the nose, where they are not visible. If any incisions are required on the outside, they are most often placed along the natural crease where the nostril meets the cheek, making scarring nearly imperceptible. The vast improvement that such small changes afford, produce a strong, positive effect on many patient’s confidence, allowing them to feel entirely comfortable with a nose that fits their facial features and structure.

Reshape Your Nose With Rhinoplasty

Have you ever looked at photos of yourself and wished your nose didn’t look so large or out-of-place? Cosmetic nose reshaping (rhinoplasty) can enhance the overall appearance of your nose and restore a sense of balance to the face. The primary goal of this procedure is to create a very natural-looking shape that blends well with, and even accentuates, the facial features. Rhinoplasty can also be performed for men and women who experience breathing difficulties due to airway obstruction.

You may be a great candidate for rhinoplasty if:

• Your nose is disproportionate to your face
• Your nose has noticeable bumps
• Your nose seems too wide or too narrow
• The nasal tip is uneven or enlarged
• The nostrils are uneven, too large or too small
• Your nose appears crooked or off center
• There are physical or functional deformities

To get an idea of how a nose reshaping procedure can dramatically affect facial appearance, take a look at these before and after photos and read a few patient testimonials.
