Rhinoplasty, a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose, is one of the most sought-after cosmetic treatments due to its profound effect on enhancing appearance and self-confidence. If you have always felt self-conscious about the size or shape of your nose or nostrils, Board Certified plastic surgeon Dr. DeLozier understands the emotional distress that can accompany these insecurities, as the nose is the centerpiece of the face.
Through rhinoplasty, Dr. DeLozier can skillfully make numerous alterations, such as changing the size, angle, or bridge of your nose, straightening a crooked nose, or adjusting the width of your nostrils. These changes can create more balanced contours and a shapelier nose, transforming the way you perceive yourself and improving your overall self-confidence.
To ensure your safety and comfort, nose reshaping cosmetic surgery at DeLozier Cosmetic Surgery Center is performed under general anesthesia. Dr. DeLozier typically completes rhinoplasty procedures within an hour, utilizing one of two methods. He may remove skin from your nose or make an incision through your nostrils, and in some cases, he may graft cartilage from other parts of your body, such as your septum, ear, or rib cartilage, to reshape your nose and create the desired shape. Dr. DeLozier’s skillful techniques and attention to detail ensure that you receive the best possible outcome from your rhinoplasty procedure.
The first day following nose reshaping surgery should be spent in bed. Cold compresses should be used to reduce swelling around the face, especially the eyes. After about a week, swelling and bruises will subside and the nose splint and stitches can be removed. If you have a desk job, you can return to work after only a few days.
For the first two to three weeks, any activity that raises blood pressure should be avoided, and rubbing the nose should be avoided. After eight weeks, you should be completely back to normal.
Say goodbye to feeling self-conscious about the appearance of your nose and the balance of your face. Following nose reshaping cosmetic surgery, your entire face will appear rejuvenated, with enhanced proportions that highlight your natural beauty. You’ll no longer need to rely on makeup techniques or hairstyles to offset the appearance of your nose. The results of your rhinoplasty procedure are permanent, allowing you to let your inner beauty shine through your newly symmetrical face and the nose you have always desired.
