What Can Rhinoplasty Do for You?
There are various reasons why men and women in Atlanta seek out rhinoplasty, which continues to rank as one of the most popular facial plastic surgery procedures in the country. Some of the main uses for rhinoplasty include the treatment of:
- An overly large nose
- A nose that is too small
- Large bumps/humps on the nose
- A drooping tip
- Crooked bridge
- Nasal injury
- Nasal obstruction
Am I a Good Candidate for Rhinoplasty?
Skin type, ethnic background, and age are important factors to be considered when considering a patient for rhinoplasty. Before the nose is altered, the nose must reach full growth, which usually occurs around the age of 15. As we age, the nasal tip tends to droop, the tip widens, and the hump on the nose enlarges, which can affect not only appearance, but also breathing.
Before deciding on rhinoplasty, ask if any additional surgery might be recommended to enhance the appearance of your face or neck. Many patients have a chin augmentation or an eyelid lift in conjunction with a rhinoplasty to create a better balance of features.
What to Expect During Your Procedure
Your surgery will be performed under general anesthesia. A small incision will be made within the nostril to minimize visibility of future scarring. Once the underlying structure of your nose is revealed, your plastic surgeon can reshape the cartilage, bone and tissue to the size and profile that you desire.
Sometimes the hump is removed, and typically the nose is thinned out at the tip and slightly elevated. It is usually necessary to narrow the nose at the time of surgery. A splint and packing are removed by the fifth day, and most people are presentable in approximately one week to 10 days. If you have difficulty breathing, your insurance may pay for a portion of the rhinoplasty procedure.

“I was comfortable from the moment I sat down with Dr. Val. I had discussed what I was interested in and she reassured me that it was possible and that I shouldn’t be nervous about the procedure. She gave me all of the information and let me know what to expect and gave me time to consider if that was what I wanted to move forward with. There was support throughout the entire process even more support than I expected. And as a result, immediately after, my confidence soared. I would like to give a huge thank you to Dr Val for helping me get me back.”
DEEI can’t say thank you enough to Dr. Val for helping me achieve a vision that I thought was lost – my pre-baby belly. For years I accepted that this will be the best it would look. I was wrong! Dr. Val was realistic, understanding, and skillful from beginning to end. She was easy to talk to and had equal concern for my outcome. She made having my procedure one of the best things I could have ever done for myself. Thank you again, Dr.Val!
LYNNI went to see Dr. Val for filler and Botox. Overall, I must say that my experience was great. Dr. Val made me feel at ease and my results were amazing. My lips were perfect and Dr. Val was able to give my eyebrow a lift that was very nicely done.
DANAI was so nervous about getting my reconstruction after my mastectomy. Dr. Val you guided me through the process, answering all my questions and telling me what to expect every step of the way.
