Rhinoplasty and Facial Proportions

Rhinoplasty is an intelligent form of plastic surgery used to alter the size, shape, and features of your nose. While the finished result will hopefully be positive, it can also impact the appearance of your entire face.

How Rhinoplasty Can Change the Look of More Than Just Your Nose

Essentially, because your nose is the centerpiece of your face, it can become a point of interest when it has an unusual or prominent appearance. A rhinoplasty will help to minimize the noticeable features. Once your rhinoplasty is complete, people will notice your other facial features more readily.

9 times out of 10, you will look more attractive. However, choosing to change your nose in order to achieve your idea of perfection, you could be making a mistake. A nose that looks good on someone else is not guaranteed to look good on you.

If your new nose doesn’t compliment your facial structure, the results can become disappointing.

What Type of Rhinoplasty Do I Need?

When you speak to a professional, they will be able to tailor your procedure to meet your needs. The two most common methods are open rhinoplasty and closed rhinoplasty. During a closed rhinoplasty, incisions are made inside your nose to prevent any scarring.

This procedure is usually done to remove a nasal hump or to change the upper part of your nose. With an open rhinoplasty, there will be a small incision made in the tissue between your nostrils. This is usually done to shape the top of your nose as well as the middle part.

Incisions may also be made inside of your nose.

The Results

A small structural change to your nose can make all the difference. Usually, the results will vary depending on each individual patient. Your professional will discuss the potential results with you and provide an honest assessment.

After your rhinoplasty is complete, you will see a noticeable difference once the swelling goes down. It can be over a year until the full nose job is complete and healed. After all, it is a fairly invasive procedure.

A rhinoplasty can be a fantastic procedure for anyone looking to change their nose. You can learn more about rhinoplasty and how it can enhance your appearance.
