Rhinoplasty Before & After: Correcting Cosmetic And Functional Issues

Featured Patient

These before and after photos are an excellent demonstration of both functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery in our beautiful patient who has thin nasal skin. Her nasal obstruction was caused by internal nasal valve collapse, external nasal valve collapse, a deviated nasal septum to the right, and bilateral turbinate enlargement. She was also dissatisfied with the appearance of her nose. You can see that she had a bulbous droopy tip and a sizable profile hump. Her functional repair included septoplasty, bilateral spreader grafts, and bilateral lateral crural strut grafts. We also narrowed and rotated her nasal tip and took down her nasal hump. Additionally, you can see that the freckle at the base of her nose is permanently gone. We removed this with light electrocautery at the end of her rhinoplasty surgery. She is one year after surgery and we are all thrilled with her final result.

Patient Review:

“Dr Eric is amazing!!! Hi staff is so kind and accommodating and he is an exceptional surgeon! I had an aggressive turbinate removal and rhinoplasty and could not be happier with my results. My nose is now functional and beautiful! This was my second nose surgery (for breathing purposes) and wanted to get a rhinoplasty with it. He was the 5th doctor i saw for the procedure and I am so thankful for him! My recovery was easy and my result is amazing!!”

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Wide Nasal Appearance Correction

Rhinoplasty #270

Our beautiful 28-year-old patient is seen six and a half months following rhinoplasty surgery at our practice. She was dissatisfied with the wide appearance of her nose, which was associated with a droopy tip and a dorsal hump. As seen here, we achieved a natural-looking nasal appearance through tip rotation, tip narrowing, nostril narrowing, nasal narrowing, and hump removal, resulting in a less distracting and more feminine profile. Her alarplasty scars are well-concealed and limited to the base of her nose.

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Corrected Overprojected Nasal Profile, Dorsal Hump, and Bulbous, Droopy Tip

Rhinoplasty #269

This beautiful patient presented to our office with severe dissatisfaction with her nasal appearance. She was unhappy with her overprojected nasal profile, dorsal hump, and bulbous, droopy tip. Her after photos were taken 6 months following her rhinoplasty surgery. The goals of rhinoplasty surgery are to help a person's nose blend in naturally, not to turn it into the centerpiece of the face. We can now see a more feminine and less distracting nasal appearance, without any stigmata of previous nasal surgery. We are extremely grateful that she has allowed us to share her photos.

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Created a Smaller and More Feminine Nasal Appearance

Rhinoplasty #268

A beautiful teenager is seen before and 10 months following functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery. She is satisfied with the appearance of her nasal profile and previously felt that her nose was wide and distracting from the front view. The goals of the surgery were to create a smaller, less distracting, and more feminine nasal appearance. This was combined with correction of the deviated nasal septum and turbinate reduction to maximize her nasal airway. The result is a completely natural and unoperated appearance, and we are thrilled that our patient has allowed us to post her photographs.

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Deviated Septum Correction and Refined Nasal Appearance

Rhinoplasty #267

Our beautiful 28-year-old patient is seen 2.5 years after functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery. She had a severely deviated nasal septum that was obstructing her airway, and causing a small irregularity and asymmetry on the base view of her nose. This was associated with a wide nasal appearance, and an overprojected profile nasal appearance. In the after photos, you can see a narrower and less projected nasal appearance that is completely natural. She is breathing well and she's thrilled with her results, and we are grateful that she has allowed us to post her photos.

Patient Review:

“Dr. Joseph is the only doctor I would trust with a rhinoplasty. He made me feel super comfortable throughout the entire process. My results were even better than what I could have expected. I’ve referred many friends to him who have also had great experiences. Post-op, Dr. Joseph was there with any questions or concerns I had even on the weekends during non- working hours. I would recommend him to everyone.”
