Is a Nose Job Right for Me?

    BEVERLY HILLS, CA, November 30, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Your nose is one of your most noticeable facial features. If you are unhappy with the appearance of your nose, for any reason, rhinoplasty may be the ideal solution.

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is the surgical procedure in which your nose is brought into proper alignment with your other features. This procedure can be used to address:
- Size and shape
- Position
- Bumps, humps, and dips
- Upward or downward pointed tip
- Nostril size and symmetry

If you feel that your nose detracts from your appearance, your plastic surgeon can help you determine what rhinoplasty may accomplish for you.

Rhinoplasty Candidates
Being unhappy with the appearance of your nose is the first consideration in rhinoplasty candidacy. Additional considerations will include:
- Your general health
- Your understanding of the risks involved with surgery
- Your preparedness for a surgical procedure
- Your willingness to follow your plastic surgeons pre and postoperative instructions

It is also important that you have realistic expectations. Your plastic surgeon can use rhinoplasty to help produce balance between your facial features, but your results will be dependent on the surgeon you choose and the care you take of your nose after surgery.

Choose a plastic surgeon that is experienced, board-certified, and willing to provide you with individualized attention. Your rhinoplasty should be performed in a surgical facility or hospital where attending medical staff can help ensure your safety and comfort.

Following your surgery, be sure to follow all of your plastic surgeon's advice. This will include not smoking, avoiding certain physical activities, and keeping your incisions clean. All of these things should be discussed with you during your initial consultation.

The best way to determine if rhinoplasty is right for you is by scheduling a consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon. During this visit, your plastic surgeon can assess the structure of your nose and its relation to your facial features and help you determine what rhinoplasty can do for you.
