Rhinoplasty

Do you want to change the shape or size of your nose? Do you want to fix your nasal tip, bridge, or nostrils? Did a previous rhinoplasty surgeon fail to give you the results you desire? Is your nose broken, crooked, or in need of serious help? Rhinoplasty—a nose job—can modify the appearance of your nose in various ways. With permanent results, rhinoplasty is a great way to improve even the most minor aesthetics to enhance your facial appearance significantly.

Type of Nose Complications

Improved Tip or Bridge

Aesthetic rhinoplasty can change the look of your face just by changing the shape of your nose or removing a bump on the bridge. Noses are usually made smaller, but occasionally, an abnormally small nose can be enlarged. The nasal bridge can also be narrowed or widened to create a more proportioned facial structure.
Correction of Breathing Obstructions

The most common surgery performed to correct a nasal breathing obstruction is septoplasty, during which a deviated septum is corrected. If you are experiencing breathing difficulties through your nose, Dr. Hiatt can assess your nasal structures to determine the cause during your initial consultation.
Change in Size or Shape of the Nostrils

Your nose can be made smaller for patients with excessively long, wide, or flaring nostrils. Rhinoplasty can also improve overly arched nostrils that may need to be lowered or narrowed. Depending on your personal needs, Dr. Hiatt can provide a customized solution for you.

Rhinoplasty Procedure

Open Approach

Dr. Hiatt does an open approach, which involves an incision along the soft tissue between the nostrils on the underside of the nose. This approach provides a more detailed view of the underlying structures for Dr. Hiatt to make more dramatic alterations to your nose.

Concerns

Scars

Rhinoplasty will have some scarring inside the nostrils and between the nostrils.
Recovery

You can return to work and light activities after two weeks. After one month, you should be able to resume all regular activities. Regular glasses may not be worn for up to two months, after which time most swelling will have subsided.
Anesthesia

Rhinoplasty typically requires general anesthesia.
Cost

The cost of a typical rhinoplasty varies not only based on the extent of the surgery but also on several factors, including where the procedure is geographically performed, fees associated with the procedure (such as operating room fees), and the cost of anesthesia.

A more expensive rhinoplasty does not necessarily equal a superior result. The best results are achieved at the hands of experienced rhinoplasty specialists. Dr. Hiatt has a substantial amount of experience with this procedure and will work with you to be able to affordably achieve the results you desire.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I need to go under general anesthesia for this procedure?: Dr. Hiatt feels that general anesthesia is best for airway control.
Can rhinoplasty help me with a deviated septum?: Rhinoplasty can solve many issues related to a deviated septum as well as other breathing restrictions. Dr. Hiatt can assess any problems you are having and determine the best plan of action to correct them. Some airway obstructions are caused by the septum and can usually be treated by septoplasty.
After my surgery, when can I return to work?: You can usually return to work and other light duties two weeks following the procedure. There are generally no restrictions after a month following surgery and sometimes sooner depending upon the activities.
