The Most Important Things to Consider About Rhinoplasty

Posted on

Has the little dorsal bump on your nose bothered you for years? Does the size of your nose or the angle of its downward slope make you cringe every time you look in the mirror? Whether you were born with a nose whose appearance concerns you, you’ve suffered some sort of facial injury that damaged your nose, or you have trouble breathing and/or have a deviated septum, today’s medical advancements have enabled expert cosmetic facial surgeons, like board-certified Dr. Gilbert, to reshape and resize noses gently, and effectively.

What do you need to know about a nose job?

Nose jobs are delicate surgeries that require a surgeon that specializes in rhinoplasties. Your nose is a prominent part of your appearance, so it’s crucial that you work hand in hand with the doctor you choose and trust them entirely. Communicating your goals and dreams will aid in the creation of ideal alterations.

One of the most important things to keep in mind when choosing a doctor to perform your rhinoplasty is that, if it’s done well, no one will be able to tell. Highly skilled facial surgeons can preserve your natural beauty while making small changes that enhance your overall appearance rather than just your nose. In other words, people will notice your beautiful face rather than just a nice nose.

Should I get a nose job?

Our priority is correcting the facial features that bother you. The nose can be increased or decreased in size, narrowed or widened, lengthened or shortened to balance perfectly with your other facial features. As we seek to create the nose you desire, it’s crucial we consider all aspects pertaining to your particular face and personality. Dr. Gilbert believes that there is no such thing as the perfect nose and that individual features add character to the face and make a person unique. At Inland Institute, it’s more about the perfect fit than the perfect nose. There must be harmony among facial features.

What should you do before a nose job?

The first thing to do as you consider getting rhinoplasty is find a specialized doctor who is an expert in this particular procedure. Dr. Gilbert is a recognized leader in the latest advancement of oral and facial reconstructive treatments, including rhinoplasty. His triple board certification allows him to provide multiple procedures during one appointment, eliminating the hassle of scheduling and repeated sedation. Our patients have the luxury of achieving a more ideal appearance by adding, for example, a nose shaping treatment to an orthognathic jaw surgery or chin augmentation, all in one visit at our state-of-the-art facility. Dr. Gilbert is fully trained and certified to administer anesthesia in addition to performing oral, maxillofacial, and facial cosmetic surgery.

Advanced Technology

We perform computer imaging before all rhinoplasty procedures so planning is accurate and without surprises. Computer imaging also helps patients develop realistic expectations regarding the final result, recognizing anatomical or technical limitations. Perhaps, the greatest benefit of computer imaging is that it ensures that you and Dr. Gilbert are on the same page, as you view the exact image of your goal together.

We consider our patients to be family, so from the moment you walk in the door to your last follow-up visit, our team strives to provide you with highly individualized care.
