Rhinoplasty and Nasal Surgery improve the most dominant feature of your face.
Rhinoplasty (nose job)
The nose being the most dominant feature of our faces can be significantly improved with conservative changes. Our goal is to make the changes that will improve your appearance without making them obvious. Modest changes in the nasal bridge and tip change a person's appearance dramatically. Dr. Cenedese will change your appearance without anyone else knowing.
Bumps and irregularities of the nasal bridge are typically "filed" down. Breaking of bones in rarely necessary. Small incisions placed within the nose allow resection and repositioning of the wide and projecting nasal tip.
Nasal surgery is relatively painless. Swelling prevents noticeable results prior to one week. Some patients return to work in 5 days or less. Occasional bruising lasts 12 to 14 days. It usually takes six weeks to see the majority of changes. Tapes and a small splint are worn for one week.
Nasal Surgery
Difficulty breathing through the nose is caused by several conditions. Allergies and hay fever cause swelling of the nasal lining, therefore partially closing the airway. Oral antihistamines and nasal sprays usually temporarily correct most conditions. If these treatments are not effective, opening of the airway may be necessary by resecting and shifting the nasal septum or resecting enlarged turbinates (nasal glands). Sinus conditions producing pressure in the face and headaches are best managed by ear, nose and throat specialists.
Surgically correctable conditions are often reimbursable by insurance carriers and can be addressed at the time of cosmetic procedures. Medical insurance will only reimburse for recent nasal injuries or breathing difficulties.
