If it sounds too good to be true in your bathroom, it probably is. Real results come from Botox, fillers, and professional treatments performed by experts. DIY microneedling, miracle creams, and at-home gimmicks are not only ineffective, they can be unsafe.

Many patients ask: Will rhinoplasty affect my breathing?

That’s an important concern. At our clinic, every rhinoplasty is designed with both form and function in mind. Cartilage grafts from the septum, ear, or rib are often used to reinforce the nasal framework. This maintains (and sometimes even improves) airflow while refining the nose’s shape.

By addressing both appearance and breathing together, results are not only natural-looking but also built to support your everyday comfort.

Revision rhinoplasty is one of the most complex procedures in facial surgery. It often involves working around scar tissue, weakened structures, or previous grafts. We begin with a thorough evaluation: photographs, breathing assessment, and review of prior surgeries. Cartilage grafts from the septum, ear, or rib are frequently used to rebuild support and restore function, while refining appearance. Honest conversations set realistic expectations so you know what’s achievable.

The difference is in the depth.
Unlike older, skin-only facelifts that last just 3–5 years, a deep plane facelift repositions the underlying ligaments and facial structures—creating results that look natural and stand the test of time.

This advanced approach addresses the true causes of aging, not just the surface. That’s why many patients enjoy results that can last a decade or more.

Your goals determine your approach.

Closed rhinoplasty: internal incisions, faster initial recovery, no visible scars—best for subtle refinements.

Open rhinoplasty: small external incision for full visibility, ideal when major reshaping or structural support is needed.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty: injectable fillers smooth bumps or refine contours without surgery. No downtime, but results are temporary.

Our method is chosen based on your anatomy, goals, and recovery tolerance—always tailored, never one-size-fits-all.

Not all rhinoplasties are the same. Techniques such as closed and open approaches are selected based on individual anatomy and goals to achieve balanced, natural results. Structural rhinoplasty often provides a more comprehensive, long-lasting refinement by supporting and enhancing the nose’s own framework.
