Rhinoplasty ( Nose Surgery ) in Manhattan New York
Information, Before and After Photos, Surgery Explained

Rhinoplasty can be used to improve the way the nose looks in proportion with the other facial features, as well as to correct functional problems including breathing obstructions and traumatic injuries. When we evaluate the nose, we will study the frontal, oblique and lateral views in addition to the shape and projection of the chin, cheekbones, and upper lip. The nose should be de-emphasized so that the other attractive facial features can be appreciated.

We usually recommend that patients wait until they are at least age 16, and possibly older for boys, before undergoing rhinoplasty. The nose may not be fully developed at a younger age. Assuming you are in good health, there is no upper age limit for having your nose reshaped. With age, gravity and the diminishing supportive structures of the nose, the shape and position of the nose will ultimately change. The nose may appear longer and the tip eventually droops, thus is not unusual to have nasal refinements done at the time of a facelift procedure or later in life. A simple elevation of the nasal tip may result in a younger and more attractive appearance.

The most common aesthetic complaints regarding the nose are: the nose appears too large for your face, there is a bump on the nasal bridge, the profile is out of proportion, the nose seems too wide when viewed from the front, the tip droops downward, the tip is too thick, the nostrils are excessively flared, and the nose is crooked.

Modern rhinoplasty techniques allow us many more options for reshaping the nose. Some noses need to be lengthened, augmented, or narrowed for the best aesthetic result. A large portion of the rhinoplasties we perform today are revisionary operations to improve a previous surgical result. Internal nasal derangements that cause nasal breathing difficulties can also corrected during rhinoplasty surgery. The major limitations in terms of what you can expect as a result of a rhinoplasty procedure have to do with your skin type, skin thickness, the thickness and position of your nasal bones, as well as the skill of the surgeon you select. We will carefully review all your options at the time of your consultation and plan the perfect procedure for you.

The overall result of eyelid rejuvenation is a subtle but remarkable change that produces a more youthful and less tired appearance.
