Rhinoplasty for Men

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves altering the shape, size, and overall appearance of the nose. The procedure is also commonly referred to as a “nose job” and can help you discover a nose that more effectively frames your face.

Who Qualifies for Rhinoplasty?

To determine if you’re an ideal candidate for rhinoplasty, we recommend that you schedule a consultation with Dr. Rogers, so he can learn about your goals, evaluate your physical characteristics, and help you determine whether or not rhinoplasty is the right choice for you. Thanks to Dr. Rogers’ extensive skill and deeply held passion for innovation, he’s frequently able to collaborate with his patients on the development of truly bespoke surgical plans.

Cosmetic vs. Functional Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty can be performed for cosmetic or functional purposes, and Dr. Rogers will help you understand the difference between each type of surgery during the in-person consultation that takes place before your procedure. This will be your chance to ask any questions you might have about the procedure, so Dr. Rogers can ensure your peace of mind.

Cosmetic Rhinoplasty

Cosmetic rhinoplasty is done to improve the appearance of the nose and to enhance facial harmony. It can involve reshaping the tip, changing the size of the nose, narrowing the nostrils, or correcting any visible bumps or indentations. Dr. Rogers is adept at cosmetic rhinoplasty, and brings both an extensive level of skill and training, coupled with a keenly developed artistic sensibility, to each and every rhinoplasty procedure he performs.

Functional Rhinoplasty

Functional rhinoplasty is ideal for those who have breathing problems caused by a deviated septum, nasal valve collapse, or other structural abnormalities of the nose, as well as those who have suffered a traumatic injury to the nose that has caused damage to the nasal structure, may also qualify for the procedure. In these cases, functional rhinoplasty can be an important way to restore your ability to breathe clearly and properly.

Your Rhinoplasty Procedure

Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia, which means that the patient is unconscious during the procedure. This type of anesthesia allows for the patient to remain pain-free throughout the surgery.

The length of a rhinoplasty procedure can vary depending on the complexity of the surgery and the techniques used. Generally, the procedure can take anywhere from one to three hours, but in some cases, it may take longer.

Looking Forward to Your Results

After your rhinoplasty surgery, your nose may be placed in a splint to help with the healing process. You can expect some bruising, swelling, and discomfort, and Dr. Rogers’ team will provide you with everything you need to remain comfortable, along with a clear set of aftercare instructions that will help you care for your surgical site and ensure that you heal nicely. The recovery time after rhinoplasty varies from patient to patient and may depend on the extent of the surgery. In general, patients can expect to take about one to two weeks off from work or school to allow for proper healing.
