Benefits Beyond Appearance

What are the benefits of Rhinoplasty?

By reshaping your nasal bone and cartilage, cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery offers you the ability to refine the appearance of your nose by adjusting the nasal tip, dorsal hump (nasal dorsum), and other structures, enhancing facial balance and symmetry. For patients who are dissatisfied with the size, projection, symmetry, or overall shape of the nose, surgical rhinoplasty surgery offers a permanent confidence boost and a look that seamlessly complements other facial features. While achieving your desired aesthetic is a major benefit, rhinoplasty can also improve your breathing function, especially if you have a deviated septum. This can lead to better sleep quality and overall well-being.

Your Rhinoplasty Procedure

At our clinic in Pittsburgh rhinoplasty is typically performed as an outpatient surgery. Dr. James utilizes advanced techniques to ensure minimal scarring and a natural-looking outcome. Precise incisions are often placed within the nostrils, minimizing their visibility. Crafted with precision and artistry, your rhinoplasty procedure combines expertise and creativity. Typically under general anesthesia for one to two hours, your surgeon evaluates whether open or closed rhinoplasty is suitable. Delicate adjustments are then made to nose structures and tissue, tailored to achieve a stunning outcome.
