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.
