I always enjoy Fridays when I get to see my patients! This is a before and after photo of rhinoplasty of a wonderful young woman in her 20s. She underwent primary rhinoplasty for both cosmetic and breathing related issues. My favorite thing about her result is that the nose was not “overdone”, following the natural aesthetic of the nose she was born with, but slightly more refined.
Anecdotally, she was out and someone told her, “I love your nose”. She said, “Thanks! I paid for it!”.
Excited to share on the table photos after rhinoplasty. This wonderful park avenue sought changes for aesthetic and functional reasons. You can see her immediate on the table results here.
Very rewarding case of a revision rhinoplasty 6 month post operatively. This wonderful woman had a prior surgery that left her with a pollybeak deformity and nasal septal perforation.
Pollybeak deformity refers to excess tissue over the “supratip” area (region over the bridge of the nose right before the nasal tip). It’s name is derived from the beak-like shape of the nose. This usually occurs from prior rhinoplasty surgery, and can happen when dorsal humps are aggressively taken down without accounting for skin redraping. Patients subsequently develop excess scar tissue underneath the skin that gives the characteristic appearance. Other causes include inadequate dorsal hump reduction, as well as failed corrective surgery of a “tension” tip deformity.
She elected to undergo revision rhinoplasty with her own rib for aesthetic and functional purposes. The prior surgery also had left her with a large hole in her septum, for which she also underwent flap reconstruction for closure.
Before and after photo of revision rhinoplasty with patient’s own rib. Patient had 2 prior surgeries that left him unable to breathe. His septum was collapsed in the front, replaced by scar, and deviated causing obstruction. He underwent an open structure septo-rhinoplasty for reconstruction. He now looks better and breathes better!
Very excited to share before and after rhinoplasty photos. This wonderful Park Avenue patient sought changes for aesthetic and functional reasons. 3 months ago she underwent a primary rhinoplasty. She underwent slight changes to the contour of her nose, tip rotation, and projection. Her nose was made straighter also allowing her to breathe better!
Before and after on the table photo of primary rhinoplasty of a wonderful young woman in her 20s. She was looking for small changes to enhance her overall aesthetic.
Before and after photo of rhinoplasty on the table photo. This young woman wanted a small change in rotation and dorsal height. She was an ideal candidate for a closed rhinoplasty approach.
Excited to share this before and after on the table photos after rhinoplasty. This wonderful patient sought changes for aesthetic and functional reasons. You can see her immediate on the table results here. Small changes seen here enhanced the overall balance of her face, while also allowing her to breathe better.
