A Look Into Rhinoplasty 

When the nose is too large for the face or a certain aspect of the nose stands out, it can distract the gaze from the smile and the eyes. Rhinoplasty in Miami can address a wide array of nasal flaws, including a hump on the bridge, a droopy or bulbous tip, a pinched tip, an overly broad bridge, a flat bridge, or nostril size and shape concerns. Rhinoplasty can also be performed to resolve asymmetry, a crooked or broken nose, or breathing issues.

Due to the complexity of the nasal anatomy, technical demands of the procedure, and the artistry that is required, rhinoplasty is known to be one of the most challenging of all facial plastic surgery procedures. Dr. Paul N. Afrooz is proud to offer his patients the expertise required to deliver natural-looking, beautifully balanced results with rhinoplasty in Miami.

Issues Rhinoplasty can Correct

If you are unhappy with the look of your nose, imagine the difference in your quality of life after rhinoplasty. It is incredible to see the difference in overall facial appearance when the size, shape, and projection of the nose structure are balanced with your features. If you have any of the following concerns, you are likely a good candidate for nose surgery in Miami:

  • Large tip
  • Hanging tip
  • Bulbous tip
  • Crooked nose
  • Overly wide bridge
  • A hump on the bridge
  • Flat bridge
  • Wide, excessively large, or elongated nostrils
  • Asymmetrical nose

How a Rhinoplasty is Performed

The surgical technique for your custom surgery will reflect the shape of your nose and the enhancements needed. Nose surgery may involve repositioning the nasal bones or altering cartilage shape. Fat transfer or dermal fillers may also be used in tandem to achieve your ideal outcome. If you are experiencing trouble with breathing, Dr. Afrooz may correct the septum or the turbinates within the nasal cavity to improve airflow and restore a healthy nasal structure.

Different Rhinoplasty Techniques

Open rhinoplasty

With this approach, an incision is made at the base of the columella, the thin strip of tissue separating your nostrils. This approach allows for a comprehensive reshaping of the nasal structures.

Closed rhinoplasty

Here, the incisions are placed within the nostrils – an appropriate surgical approach for minor nose shape corrections.

Revision Rhinoplasty

Many people come to Dr. Paul N. Afrooz, one of Miami's top facial plastic surgeons to correct a less-than-satisfactory result from prior nose surgery. In some cases, the previous surgeon did not go far enough to accomplish the patient’s cosmetic goals. Other times, the surgeon went too far and removed too much cartilage or bone, resulting in structural problems that impair breathing.

After any rhinoplasty, the nose develops scar tissue, which can make future procedures more challenging. Revision rhinoplasty requires specific expertise in advanced techniques. Dr. Afrooz is an accomplished revision veteran who understands the technical demands as well as the emotional side of having to undergo a second procedure for the same issue.

Revision surgery can resolve an array of problems, including:

  • Asymmetry
  • A collapsed nasal structure
  • A nose left too large
  • A deviated septum
  • A nose that looks unnatural
  • A damaged nasal structure that requires rebuilding

What is Ethnic Rhinoplasty?

In the past, surgeons applied a Westernized, Caucasian-centric approach to all clients, regardless of their unique ethnicity or cultural background. Today, our sensibilities have matured, and we understand the importance of ethnic rhinoplasty to fit the patient. Dr. Afrooz performs African-American, Middle Eastern, Hispanic/Latinx, and Asian rhinoplasty to address nasal imperfections while simultaneously preserving the patient’s individuality.

What is Functional Rhinoplasty?

When nose surgery is primarily performed to address breathing issues, it is called functional rhinoplasty. Functional rhinoplasty can help correct a deviated septum or repair the turbinates within the nasal cavity. Because functional rhinoplasty is done for medical reasons, it is often covered by insurance companies.
