About Nose Surgery
Cosmetic rhinoplasty procedures are a popular cosmetic procedure within facial plastic surgery, allowing people to achieve the ideal size and nasal shape for their nose. As experienced facial plastic surgeons with extensive training in head and neck surgery, Dr. Papel and Dr. Kontis help you through the entire process, including choosing the perfect shape and size of the nose to create facial balance and complement your features. Depending on your needs and cosmetic reasons, your surgeon may recommend open rhinoplasty or closed rhinoplasty using advanced rhinoplasty techniques.
During the surgical procedure, the underlying bone and cartilage, nasal tissues, and nasal hump can be reshaped, and cartilage grafts may be used when additional support is needed. In some cases, functional rhinoplasty is also performed to correct a deviated septum and improve nasal function in addition to appearance. Understanding how rhinoplasty is planned and rhinoplasty performed helps patients feel confident before this outpatient procedure, which may be completed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia depending on the complexity of the procedure. Rhinoplasty nose surgery addresses the nasal septum, nasal bones, and nasal airway for comprehensive nose reshaping.
