Cosmetic Surgeon
Rhinoplasty is the fancy word used for 'nose surgery' or a 'nose
job'. This procedure will reshape the nose by increasing or
reducing size, removing the bump, changing the angle and
changing the shape. Many rhinoplasty procedures are also used to
relieve breathing problems.
There are a few different methods used for nose reshaping. A
couple of the common practices are called endonasal rhinoplasty
and external or 'open' rhinoplasty. Endonasal procedures are
performed by making incisions inside the nose while 'open
rhinoplasty' uses a small incision inside the nose in
combination with additional small cuts on the outside. It is not
fair to label one method as better than the other, but sometimes
one can be more useful depending on the patient. Because no two
noses are the same, the doctor will decide what the best
procedure is for you.
Nose reshaping surgery can be performed under local or general
anesthesia. The patients who are under local anesthesia will be
slightly sedated in order to remain relaxed and numb to all
pain. The general anesthesia patients will be asleep throughout
the entire operation. The doctor will generally recommend which
type of anesthesia they feel is best depending on the nature of
the individual procedure.
