What is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty, also known as a nose job, is a procedure that is unique to each individual. Small incisions are performed on the nasal ridge to minimize any signs of scarring. Dr. Hughes and his team then perform the desired work to restructure, reshape, or redefine the nose. Dr. Hughes provides unmatched skill and expertise allowing for the most natural improvement.
Many individuals who are dissatisfied with their nose shape or proportion regain confidence once they reach their desired look. Both a rhinoplasty and chin augmentation are often combined and can be effective in bringing your facial features into more beautiful harmony.
Treatment Options
Cosmetic vs. Functional Rhinoplasty
A cosmetic rhinoplasty’s sole purpose is to improve the overall appearance of the nose. A functional rhinoplasty helps individuals who have trouble breathing. Some patients combine the two for a functional and aesthetically-pleasing result. The end result for both Rhinoplasty options is an appealing, proportional nose shape.
Open vs. Closed Rhinoplasty
What’s the difference between a closed and open rhinoplasty? An open Rhinoplasty involves an incision across the latter part of the nostril and inside to provide support. A closed Rhinoplasty involves incisions made on the inside of the nostrils to ensure quality precision when accessing the inner structures.
