The Making Of A Beautiful Nose | vgplasticsurgery's Blog

Although there are aesthetic guidelines as to what constitutes an attractive nose, for each face it takes a different nose to create an appropriate harmony and balance. According to a top cosmetic surgeon Beverly Hills patients can take advantage of nose reshaping surgery (rhinoplasty) which can help enhance the appropriate balance between the nose and facial features.
With Regard To Nose Plastic Surgery Los Angeles Rhinoplasty Surgeons Can Achieve The Following Effects:

  The hump on the bridge of the nose can be removed
The boxy or bulbous tip of the nose can be refined
Droopy nose can be rotated up
A long nose can be made shorter
A wide nose can be narrowed
Certain traumatic deformities of the nose can be improved or corrected
Certain causes of nasal airway obstruction can be treated

In some patients with a small chin, a chin augmentation may improve the balance between the face and the nose. A detailed analysis of your nose and facial features will be performed during your consultation. As with all plastic surgery operations like rhinoplasty or tummy tuck Los Angeles patients can expect to discuss potential options with their surgeons regarding all their facial and body reshaping needs.

How is nasal reshaping (rhinoplasty) done?
Rhinoplasty in some patients can be performed using local analgesia and sedation. General anesthesia is used in other patients. The choice of anesthesia depends on the type of nasal reshaping to be performed, your preference, and your medical condition. For most rhinoplasty patients, we place incisions inside the nose. The sutures are absorbable and do not need to be removed. In some patients a small incision may need to be placed at the base of the nose.

What is recovery like following rhinoplasty Beverly Hills patients often ask. Intranasal dressings, if used, will be removed on day 2 or 3 after surgery. You will have a splint on your nose that will be removed on day 5 or 6 after surgery. Most swelling will resolve within several weeks. However, it may take up to a year for all swelling to resolve completely. Most patients are very pleased with the results. Some patients request a touch-up procedure to further refine the results.
