Nose surgery, also known as rhinoplasty, is a common cosmetic procedure aimed at altering the shape or size of the nose for aesthetic or functional reasons. People seek rhinoplasty for various reasons, including correcting breathing problems, reshaping the nose after injury, or simply enhancing facial harmony.
During a rhinoplasty procedure, Dr. Nguyen may remove or reshape nasal cartilage and bone to achieve the desired outcome. This can involve reducing or increasing the size of the nose, changing the angle between the nose and upper lip, narrowing the nostrils, or reshaping the tip of the nose.
During your consultation, Dr. Nguyen will assess your needs and develop a customized plan for your unique aesthetic goals. Rhinoplasty is a complex procedure, and the results may not be immediately apparent due to swelling and bruising. Full recovery can take several weeks to months, during which time the final results become more apparent. Its essential for patients to follow all post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Nguyen for optimal healing and results.

These are just a few commonly asked questions about rhinoplasty. If you have specific concerns or questions, it's best to discuss them with Dr. Nguyen during a consultation.
Good candidates for rhinoplasty are individuals who are in good overall health, have realistic expectations about the outcome of the surgery, and are unhappy with the appearance or function of their nose.
Rhinoplasty can correct a variety of aesthetic and functional issues, including a crooked nose, a bump on the bridge of the nose, a bulbous tip, wide nostrils, and breathing difficulties due to structural abnormalities.
In open rhinoplasty, a small incision is made on the columella (the strip of tissue between the nostrils), allowing the surgeon better access to the nasal structures.
In closed rhinoplasty, all incisions are made inside the nostrils, resulting in no visible external scarring.
Recovery from rhinoplasty typically involves some swelling and bruising around the nose and eyes, which gradually improves over the course of a few weeks. Patients may need to wear a splint on their nose for the first week to support and protect it.
While some results may be visible immediately after surgery, it can take several months for the swelling to fully subside and for the final results of rhinoplasty to become apparent.
In many cases, rhinoplasty can improve breathing by correcting structural abnormalities that obstruct the nasal airways. However, it's important for patients to discuss their concerns about breathing with their surgeon during the consultation process.
Like any surgical procedure, rhinoplasty carries some risks, including infection, bleeding, adverse reactions to anesthesia, and unsatisfactory aesthetic results. It's essential for patients to thoroughly discuss these risks with their surgeon before undergoing surgery.
The cost of rhinoplasty can vary depending on factors such as the complexity of the procedure. In addition to the surgeon's fee, patients should also consider the cost of anesthesia and facility fees/
Insurance coverage for rhinoplasty can vary depending on several factors:
To determine if your rhinoplasty will be covered by insurance, it's best to:
In many cases, if the rhinoplasty is primarily for cosmetic reasons, you will likely need to cover the costs out-of-pocket. If insurance does not cover your rhinoplasty and you are unable to pay out-of-pocket costs, we offer several financing options.
