Nose Reshaping (Rhinoplasty) Williamsburg, VA | Dr. Michael Lofgren

Understanding Rhinoplasty in Williamsburg

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a specialized surgical procedure designed to reshape and enhance the nose's appearance and functionality. At the Plastic Surgery Center of Hampton Roads, board-certified surgeons offer personalized rhinoplasty techniques tailored to each patient's unique facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Comprehensive Rhinoplasty Techniques

Rhinoplasty can address multiple aesthetic and functional concerns through two primary surgical approaches:

Closed Rhinoplasty

Closed rhinoplasty involves internal incisions within the nostrils, minimizing external scarring and facilitating quicker recovery. This technique is ideal for patients seeking subtle nasal modifications.

Open Rhinoplasty

Open rhinoplasty utilizes an external columellar incision, providing enhanced surgical visibility for more complex nasal restructuring. This approach allows surgeons to make more comprehensive modifications to nasal shape and symmetry.

Rhinoplasty Treatment Areas

• Nasal size and proportion
• Dorsal hump reduction
• Nostril symmetry
• Nasal tip refinement
• Breathing functionality

Ideal Rhinoplasty Candidates

• Individuals with aesthetic nasal concerns
• Patients experiencing breathing difficulties
• Those with realistic surgical expectations
• Healthy individuals without healing complications
