Is Your Rhinoplasty Surgeon Any Good?

You may not have Elisha Cuthbert’s wide nose, or Janet Jackson’s perfect [cosmetically enhanced] nose. The elegant Roman nose too may not be the one you have been born with. But these famous noses may not necessarily be the noses that will gain you fame in your workplace after getting them cosmetically enhanced. What is considered beautiful by some may turn out to be downright ugly from someone else’s viewpoint. A ‘nose job’ is a procedure that patients would consider getting when a rich lifestyle commanded them to look picture perfect. However, the health- improving options offered by a Rhinoplasty are what are being taken into account as well by more aware patients. Besides tackling breathing problems, Rhinoplasty also enables a patient to correct birth defects.

When going ahead with the decision of getting a ‘
nose job’, consulting a surgeon certified with a board like the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) [the largest plastic surgery specialty organization in the world] is recommended. Discuss the complications and after effects that may arise post surgery with him. How qualified your doctor is, directly influences the intensity of the complications that may arise, which could be anything from a nosebleed to a reaction to anesthesia. Get a Rhinoplasty because you want to improve your nose, not perfect it.

You can either find a good doctor on the internet at the sites of the respective boards, or you can contact the
Plastic Surgery Institute of California by clicking here. We are members of the ASPS. If you are considering a Rhinoplasty, you can request a consultation with any of our highly experienced surgeons at locations like Beverly Hills, Newport Beach, Pasadena, San Diego and Huntington Beach. They can help guide you through the decision making process and answer any questions you may have.
