Your Nose, Your Choice
Rhinoplasty, often referred to as a “nose job,” is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures men and women seek. This surgical technique enhances the nose's size, shape, and structure for cosmetic reasons. It's important to differentiate Rhinoplasty from septoplasty, a separate surgical procedure designed to correct a deviated septum and improve breathing functionality. In some cases, these procedures are combined to yield cosmetic and functional benefits.
A Nose by Design
First and foremost, Rhinoplasty can significantly enhance facial aesthetics by reshaping the nose's size, shape, and structure. This can improve facial balance and harmony, boosting self-confidence and self-esteem.
One of the most compelling benefits of Rhinoplasty is its ability to provide long-lasting results. While it may take some time for swelling to dissipate, patients often notice a significant improvement in their appearance within a few weeks, with continuous refinement over the following months. These results are permanent, but recognizing that the natural aging process will continue is essential. Ultimately, with Rhinoplasty Vancouver patients can achieve their desired look, both aesthetically and functionally, enhancing their overall well-being.
Rhinoplasty is a versatile procedure that can address a wide range of concerns. Whether you're looking to enhance your appearance or improve your breathing, Rhinoplasty can help. It can refine the shape of the nose, correct asymmetry, reduce the size of a prominent nasal hump, and adjust the width of the nostrils. Functional issues, such as a deviated septum or other structural problems that cause breathing difficulties, can also be effectively treated with Rhinoplasty, bringing both aesthetic and health benefits.
Ideal candidates for Rhinoplasty are looking to improve the appearance or function of their nose. This includes people who are unhappy with the size, shape, or symmetry of their nose, as well as those experiencing breathing difficulties due to structural issues. Candidates should be in good overall health, have realistic expectations about the outcome, and ideally be non-smokers. It's important to have a thorough consultation with a qualified surgeon to determine if Rhinoplasty is the right option for you.

From Consultation to Recovery
After reshaping your nose with Rhinoplasty, Dr. Valenzuela will close the incision using dissolvable stitches and apply a cast or splint for support. The splint remains in place for at least one week or until your follow-up appointment. You'll receive detailed post-operative instructions to minimize swelling and bruising. Typically, you plan for one to two weeks of recovery, although many patients can return to work after ten days.

Typically, over-the-counter medications are sufficient to manage this discomfort, but Dr. Valenzuela can prescribe pain medication if necessary.
