Rhinoplasty - Cosmetic Before & After Case 202

Among many its benefits, rhinoplasty surgery can reduce a bump, lift a droopy nasal tip, and improve symmetry. Each nose is unique and the decision on the specific rhinoplasty surgery will vary among patients. Regardless, top plastic surgeons want to improve the nose so that it blends with the face and draws less attention.

As many Washington DC rhinoplasty patients, she wantd a new nose since a teenager. In addition, she was bothered by chronic nasal blockage despite medical treatments for allergies such as saline rinse, steroid sprays, and antihistamines. In addition, she had a nasal injury as an adult that made the nose worse, by drawing more attention to the nose and worsening the chronic nasal blockage.

She wanted to find a rhinoplasty surgeon that understood her concerns. Dr. Chaboki evaluated her nose and face, including the inside of the nose and sinus passages. Examination revealed nasal asymmetry, a nasal hump, a bulbous and droopy trip, and excess nostril show. Computer imaging provided a simulated visualization of possible rhinoplasty results, which helped her during decision making process.

She underwent a closed rhinoplasty by Dr. Chaboki to avoid external scars. The nasal bone was shaved, the nasal hump reduced, and the nasal tip modified with a combination of cartilage grafts. After photograph results demonstrate a natural appearing nose 3.5 years from her rhinoplasty surgery. She continues to refer patients to Dr. Chaboki for his cosmetic surgery services.
