Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape or resize the nose for aesthetic or functional reasons. This versatile procedure can address a range of concerns, including:
• Cosmetic Enhancements:
◦ Reducing or increasing the size of the nose.
◦ Reshaping the nasal tip or bridge.
◦ Adjusting the size of nostrils.
◦ Improving facial symmetry.
• Functional Corrections:
◦ Treating breathing issues caused by structural abnormalities, such as a deviated septum.
◦ Repairing damage from trauma or injury.
Rhinoplasty can be performed alone or in combination with other facial procedures, such as a chin augmentation, to achieve a balanced profile.
During your consultation with Dr. Vikesh Vij, your concerns and goals will be carefully assessed to determine if rhinoplasty is right for you. Rhinoplasty is suitable for individuals who:
1. Open Rhinoplasty
• Overview: Involves an incision across the columella (the tissue between the nostrils) for better visibility and access.
• Best For:
– Complex cases requiring significant reshaping.
– Correcting structural abnormalities or severe asymmetry.
2. Closed Rhinoplasty
• Overview: All incisions are made inside the nose, leaving no visible scars.
• Best For:
– Minor adjustments to the nasal structure.
– Patients seeking quicker recovery.
– Patients dissatisfied with their initial results or experiencing complications.
Rhinoplasty is a highly customizable procedure designed to meet each patient’s unique needs. Here’s what to expect:
1. Consultation and Planning
• Dr. Vikesh Vij will assess your nasal structure, skin type, and overall facial balance.
• Your goals and medical history will be discussed.
• Advanced imaging techniques may be used to visualize potential results.
2. Anesthesia
• Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia for your comfort.
3. Incision and Reshaping
• Depending on the type of rhinoplasty, incisions are made either inside the nose (closed rhinoplasty) or across the columella (open rhinoplasty).
• Bone, cartilage, and soft tissues are adjusted to achieve the desired shape and size.
• Functional concerns, such as a deviated septum, are addressed if needed.
4. Closure
• Incisions are carefully closed, and a splint is applied to support the nose during healing.
5. Post-Procedure Care
• Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided, including how to manage swelling and when to resume activities.
Recovery from rhinoplasty varies depending on the extent of the procedure. Here’s a general timeline:
• 1 Week Post-Surgery: Splint and stitches are removed; most swelling and bruising subside.
• 2-3 Weeks Post-Surgery: You can resume light activities and return to work.
• 3-6 Months: The nasal structure settles, and swelling continues to reduce.
• 1 Year: Final results become fully apparent.
Dr. Vikesh Vij provides comprehensive follow-up care to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.
The cost of rhinoplasty varies depending on factors such as the type of procedure, complexity, and whether it’s performed for cosmetic or functional reasons.
