Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)
Rhinoplasty is the medical term for nasal reconstruction, surgery that changes the shape of the nose. It is an elective cosmetic surgical procedure to enhance the form and function of the nose.
Dr. Prendiville uses rhinoplasty surgery to refine an individual’s appearance while respecting the structure and function of the nose. What’s possible in rhinoplasty depends largely on the patient’s starting anatomy.
Reasons to consider Rhinoplasty.
As we age, it’s not unusual to become unhappy with the appearance of our noses. Or perhaps you have felt self-conscience of your nose since childhood.
Our most common nose complaints we hear about are:
- Broken nose
- Tip of nose is too small
- Tip of nose is too bulbous or droopy
- Nose is too wide or big
- Nose is bent or crooked
- Unattractive bridge
- Nostrils are too small
- Nostrils are too upturned or wide
With rhinoplasty, the only age requirement is that the midface has matured adequately. Most of Dr. Prendiville’s patients seeking rhinoplasty range from their mid-teens to early 50’s. However, we evaluate rhinoplasty patients based on physiologic and not chronologic age. Most healthy post pubescent individuals that have nasal characteristics which can be addressed by rhinoplasty are good candidates for surgery.
