Rhinoplasty Before & After: Congenital Nasal-Septal Deviation Correction

Featured Patient

Our beautiful patient came to our office with a congenital nasal-septal deviation that was causing her nasal tip to lean to her right. This was associated with a long, wide nasal appearance and a profile bump. These photos are 1 YEAR following septo-rhinoplasty surgery. You can see a straighter, less distracting, and better breathing nose.

Patient Review:

“One word to describe Dr Eric Joseph, AMAZING, but even that would be an understatement. Dr Joseph and his staff and truly incredible people. They made me feel so comfortable moving forward with my surgery. If I had a question at any given moment, they were always available, ( even though some of my questions were a bit foolish). I used to be extremely insecure and self conscious about my nose, I had a deviated septum and a hump on my bridge. I even went so far as to hide it in pictures. However that changed after my surgery. I'm a year in and I am so very grateful for my new nose, I absolutely love it. He has given me my confidence back and I will forever be grateful. Dr. Joseph and his staff, they are truly one of a kind. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!”

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: Correct Dorsal Hump, Wide Droopy Tip, and Flaring Nostrils

Rhinoplasty #266

Our 35 year old gentleman is seen one year after rhinoplasty surgery. He was self-conscious about the appearance of his dorsal hump, wide droopy tip, and flaring nostrils. His hump was removed, his tip was rotated, and his nose was narrowed. We used a cartilage extended shield graft to increase projection of the nasal tip, and to add definition and stability. You can see a lovely and natural looking nasal appearance which is less distracting. We are beyond grateful that our patient has allowed us to use his photos.

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Addressed Functional and Cosmetic Concerns

Rhinoplasty #265

Our beautiful 19 year old patient is seen 15 months following functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty surgery. She presented to our office with a nasusceptal fracture, a crooked nasal appearance, bilateral nasal obstruction, along with concerns about her dorsal hump and droopy nasal tip appearance. From a cosmetic standpoint, her profile was deprojected, and on front view, you can see a straight nasal appearance, and there is no further droopiness of her tip. From a functional standpoint, her severely deviated and fractured nasal septum was repaired, and she also required bilateral spreader grafts to repair her internal nasal valves. You can see a straighter, less distracting, and more feminine nasal appearance. And we are all thrilled that she is allowing us to post her results.

Rhinoplasty Before & After: Wide and Bulbous Nasal Appearance

Rhinoplasty #264

Our beautiful 42-year-old patient's photos compare before, and 6 months after we performed rhinoplasty surgery. She was self-conscious about the overly wide and bulbous appearance of her nose on front view. On profile, you can see that her bulky tip cartilages were causing supratip fullness. Additionally, she had chronic nasal obstruction from refractory turbinate hypertrophy. Goals of surgery were to provide narrowing in the upper middle and lower thirds of her nose, along with refinement of her profile. Her nasal obstruction was addressed by correcting her deviated nasal septum, and by reducing her inferior turbinates that were allergic, large and obstructing.

The upper and middle thirds of her nose were narrowed with osteotomies. Her tip narrowing was achieved by dividing her lower lateral cartilages, performing a cephalic trim, and by placing a columella strut graft.
You can see a narrower nasal appearance on front view, along with Improvement in her nasal profile appearance as well. This has resulted in a less distracting, better breathing, and more feminine nasal appearance. Are grateful that she has allowed us to post her photographs.

Patient Review:

“Dr. Joseph is amazing! Highly recommend. I have been wanting to have rhinoplasty for many years and have seen different surgeons for consultations. As soon as I met with Dr. Joseph I felt comfortable and safe that everything would turn out how I've hoped. I'm 6 months post op and love the results. My nose is less distracting and very natural. Through the whole process I felt heard and could contact him with any questions or concerns. So glad I found Dr. Joseph and his amazing team. If I ever want to do anything else cosmetic I will def see them again.”
