Nasal Surgery

Rhinoplasty, also known as nasal surgery, reshapes the nose to address specific aesthetic concerns. The procedure can modify the nose’s size, remove bumps, refine the tip or bridge, adjust nostril width, and alter the angle between the nose and upper lip. Rhinoplasty is typically performed as an outpatient procedure, allowing patients to resume work and daily activities within about two weeks. The results of rhinoplasty are permanent.

ADVANCED NASAL SURGERY TECHNIQUES

Dr. Olding utilizes advanced rhinoplasty techniques, like open and closed approaches, to achieve the best possible outcomes for his patients. These techniques minimize scarring and promote a natural harmony within facial features.

BENEFITS OF NASAL SURGERY

Nasal surgery can address both cosmetic and functional concerns of the nose.

Functionally, it enhances breathing by correcting internal issues such as a deviated septum, thereby improving airflow. Additionally, this procedure can enhance sleep quality by alleviating conditions such as sleep apnea and snoring.

Nasal surgery provides long-term relief for patients with chronic sinusitis by removing obstructions, thereby alleviating sinus pain and reducing the frequency of infections.

Cosmetically, nasal surgery can correct congenital disabilities, improving the nose’s appearance and functionality. Reshaping the nose to harmonize with facial features also enhances patient confidence.

No scarring soon after surgery; a very natural look; and 15 to 20 years younger looking!

I’ve had several facial rejuvenation procedures by Dr. Olding over the last 7 years and they have all been excellent. In every instance, Dr. Olding listened carefully to what I wanted done and he provided good feedback on what he would recommend. He’s very easy to speak with, very friendly and kind, as is all his staff. Previously, I had a procedure done in Los Angeles, so I have a good basis for comparison. Dr. Olding is, by far, better. No scarring soon after surgery; a very natural look; and 15 to 20 years younger looking! Highly recommended in every way possible.

NASAL SURGERY CANDIDATES

Nasal surgery, or rhinoplasty, is ideal for individuals looking to improve their breathing or enhance facial harmony through nose reshaping. Candidates should be in good health, non-smokers, and realistic about their expectations.

NASAL SURGERY RECOVERY AND AFTERCARE

Recovery from rhinoplasty involves a rest period followed by a gradual return to normal activities within a few weeks. Swelling and bruising are common but subside over two to three months.

Dr. Olding will provide personalized post-operative instructions to ensure effective healing. Regular follow-up appointments are essential for monitoring progress and achieving the best possible results.

NASAL SURGERY RISKS

As with any surgical procedure, rhinoplasty entails certain potential risks, such as infection and asymmetry. However, selecting a highly skilled and experienced surgeon like Dr. Olding markedly reduces these risks.
