Why Nose Plastic Surgery Can Change The Way You Look And Feel
Each year, thousands of people undergo nose plastic surgery. Nose plastic surgery may be performed for a variety of reasons, including cosmetic purposes, to alleviate or cure nasal breathing problems, to correct nose deformities either from birth or injury, or to correct a drooping nose due to aging.
If you are considering nose plastic surgery, you should seek out a specialist who will place priority on both appearance and efficient breathing.
Nose plastic surgery (rhinoplasty) is defined as a procedure that refines the shape of the nose, and brings it into balance with the other features of the face. Because your nose is one of your most prominent features, making even a slight change can have a dramatic effect on your appearance. But having nose plastic surgery alone cannot give you a perfect profile, or improve your life by making you look like someone else. Having realistic expectations will improve and ensure a successful outcome with your nose plastic surgery.
Typically a doctor will not perform nose plastic surgery on a patient younger than 15 or 16 years of age (except in severe cases of breathing impairment). The nose is reshaped by lifting the skin, removing or rearranging the bone and cartilage, and redraping the skin over the new frame. Bandages and splints can normally be removed within five to seven days of the surgery.
While insurance normally does not cover cosmetic surgery, your insurance company may cover nose plastic surgery if it’s performed to correct or improve breathing, or if you suffer from a deformity or injury. Check with your insurance company for any questions.
