Rhinoplasty

Before And After Female Rhinoplasty

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!”.

Before and After Ethnic Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty – Before and After

Very excited to share before/after photos of a wonderful patient. This is a young gentleman that had prior nasal surgery and was left with a saddle nose deformity. This is a great case because it highlights the importance of close evaluation and communication with the patient. What many people see as a “hump” on the nose, is actually the nose “sagging” in some parts. Rather than “removing/shaving the hump”, you get a better aesthetic and functional result by building up the sagging parts of the nose, to give a masculine, straight, nasal dorsum. This patient required rib reconstruction.

Before and After Sliding Genioplasty

Excited to share before/after photos of a sliding genioplasty! This patient had microgenia, referring to a small chin. Common options for this surgery are:

Chin Implant
Sliding Genioplasty.
This patient underwent a sliding genioplasty, where the chin bone was actually advanced. It is a natural solution with the best long term results. Benefits of implants on the other hand include less down time, and reduced operative time. I am very happy to be able provide both options to my patients.

UPDATE:
Happy to post a 5-month post-op of one of my most wonderful patients! He underwent male rhinoplasty and sliding genioplasty for chin augmentation. These two procedures complement each other nicely to balance out the nose. Still a mild amount of swelling that should come down over the next 6 months.

Rhinoplasty and Otoplasty

Very excited to share photos of my patient. It’s hard to believe he is only 4 weeks out and looks so good! He had severe tip asymmetry, with inability to breathing, requiring overall reconstruction with rib. He had narrowing of his nostrils, in addition to being too projected (long nose). The key was to de-project him, but not by a lot, since he has a strong facial skeleton, so as to keep the overall harmony and balance of the face.
