THE RHINOPLASTY PROCEDURE

Rhinoplasty is typically an outpatient procedure performed under
general anesthesia. Patients are advised to arrange transportation for
the day of surgery. The procedure, which generally takes one to two
hours, can involve either closed or open techniques:

	* CLOSED RHINOPLASTY: Involves tiny incisions inside the nose,
leaving no visible scars.
	* OPEN RHINOPLASTY: Includes a small incision along the outer
vertical strip of the nose, allowing for more extensive reshaping.

In both techniques,dredmundkwan meticulously re-contours cartilage and
bone to achieve the desired result. Occasionally, a cartilage graft
may be necessary to perfect the outcome.

RECOVERY AFTER RHINOPLASTY

Post-surgery, some bruising is expected but will gradually diminish. A
nasal splint is often placed to maintain the new shape during the
initial healing phase. Most patients can resume normal, non-strenuous
activities within a week, though strenuous exercise should be avoided
for at least two weeks. Any potential visible scarring from open
rhinoplasty should fade over time.

TRANSFORM YOUR APPEARANCE WITH EXPERT RHINOPLASTY IN NEW YORK

Cosmetic and functional rhinoplasty, also known as a nose job, is one
of the most commonly performed procedures today. Small alterations to
the underlying foundation of the nose can lead to significant
improvements in both form and function. At his state-of-the-art clinic
in New York, Dr. Nicholas Bastidas performs safe, outpatient
rhinoplasty procedures designed to achieve the best possible results
for each patient.

During a detailed consultation, Dr. Bastidas and his team discuss the
patient’s aesthetic goals and functional needs to create a
personalized surgical plan. The aim is to refine the nose while
maintaining a natural appearance that enhances the patient's existing
anatomical structures.

A comprehensive physical exam is conducted to evaluate the nose's
straightness, symmetry, tip support, and the shape of the alar
cartilages. Additionally, an intra-nasal speculum exam helps determine
if there are any issues with the septum or turbinates, such as
deviations or enlargements that may need to be addressed during
surgery.

COSMETIC AND FUNCTIONAL RHINOPLASTY

Rhinoplasty procedures typically take about 3-4 hours and are
performed under anesthesia as outpatient surgeries. Dr. Bastidas often
combines rhinoplasty with septoplasty to address any breathing issues,
ensuring both aesthetic and functional benefits. Recovery from
rhinoplasty usually spans 1-2 weeks, with most patients returning to
work within a week. A nasal splint is worn for 5-7 days post-surgery,
and while initial swelling may take a few weeks to subside, the final
results are typically visible within 3-4 months.

ENHANCE YOUR SELF-ESTEEM WITH NOSE SURGERY

Rhinoplasty can significantly boost self-esteem by improving the
nose's appearance and function. For those interested in this
transformative procedure, Dr. Nicholas Bastidas offers consultations
to discuss potential outcomes and develop a customized surgical plan.

REVISION RHINOPLASTY: CORRECTING AND REFINING PREVIOUS SURGERIES

Revision rhinoplasty, or secondary rhinoplasty, is more complex than
primary rhinoplasty due to previous surgical alterations and the
disruption of normal anatomical structures and ligaments. Dr. Bastidas
has extensive experience in performing revision rhinoplasty, often
utilizing cartilage grafting to reconstruct the aberrant anatomy and
provide the necessary support for the revised nose. Cartilage for
these grafts can be harvested from behind the patient’s ear or from
rib cartilage, either from the patient or a cadaveric source.
