A nose job or rhinoplasty is one of the most commonly requested plastic surgery procedures. It can re-size the nostrils, change the size of your nose, reshape the nose, or make other adjustments to match your nose to the shape of your face. Rhinoplasty can also help to improve the balance and appearance of the face. Such factors may lead to a person seeking their own nose job and improve their self confidence.
Nose job surgery can be through many slightly different techniques. In each of the techniques, the cartilage and nose are reshaped to create the desired shape. Cosmetic surgeons accomplish this either through an incision made through the nostril or by removing skin from the nose to reshape it. This not only restores self-confidence and respect to the cosmetic surgery patient, but also helps to improve the physical appearance of the patient.
Cosmetic nasal surgery is a very individualized cosmetic surgery procedure in which the patients goals should be realistically discussed and determined with your plastic surgeon. Together you will be able to determine what specific techniques will be performed on the day of your surgery. A rhinoplasty can be performed in conjunction with many other procedures such as a face lift to enhance the balance of the patient's facial features. Once you and your cosmetic surgeon have determined your goals, you will set a date and time for this procedure. Your plastic surgeon will them give you instructions on how to best prepare. The patient always needs to remember to have realistic expectations about what nasal contouring surgery is able to accomplish. Your cosmetic surgeon may instruct you regarding smoking, physical activity, medication, drinking, or washing your face in order to help you best prepare for your nose job. Because movement is initially discouraged, you will are best off finding someone to help you for the first few days of your recovery from a nose job.
When the day of your nose job comes, you should plan on the procedure taking several hours. The length of the surgery will depend on which specific techniques and procedures you are having performed. When the surgery is completed, the nose will be secured in place and given a splint to help preserve the new shape as it heals. Cosmetic surgery patients should plan on taking two or three days of rest before being up and active. Patients should also plan on taking about a week off of work for office workers. A period of around three weeks will be needed for a full recovery.
