Rhinoplasty – Procedure and Doctors
When you are looking at yourself in the mirror what do you notice first. If it’s your nose is that a good thing or bad? If you’ve decided that your nose just doesn’t go with the rest of your face then maybe you need to have rhinoplasty.
The nose knows right? Well,
for some of us we don’t want to think about our noses. They are an eye sore on our faces right. Too big, crooked, hooked, it’s all a little much. We want to be seen as having a nice symmetrical atheistically pleasing face. While there are many people that say, you know what it’s what I’ve got and that’s good enough some of us would dearly love to not be noticed for the size of our noses. Having a distinguished profile is not something we strive for. Rhinoplasty can correct this oversized issue.
When you consider having rhinoplasty you need to make sure you understand what you are getting into. You will be asking a doctor to manipulate the bone and cartilage that makes up your nose. You will be altering the structure of your face, in a way and it needs to be something that you are sure you want to do before you make the appointment. Also you need to have a clear idea in mind of what you want to accomplish during your surgery.
You also need to ensure that you pick a doctor that is board certified to perform cosmetic surgery. Unlike some cosmetic procedures where you will just look really bad should the surgery be botched this type of procedure can cause a whole host of other issues. If something goes wrong you could end up with breathing issues that will take yet another surgery to correct. Because the cause would be from a cosmetic procedure that means most likely your insurance won’t pay for any subsequent procedures. You would need to check with your insurance company to be certain.
You won’t come out of your rhinoplasty looking like a movie star. Like all surgeries you will have to recover first. It may take a couple of weeks for all of the swelling and bruising to go away. Because of some of the sutures and stents that may be put in place you need to be sure to follow your doctors post operation instruction very carefully. You don’t want to miss a follow up appointment just because it all looks good to you.
If you feel that it’s time to lose the distinguished profile, be seen for more than just your nose, then it might be time to consider rhinoplasty. Doing even just a minor change can make a world of difference.
