Rhinoplasty is complex, and it requires attention to detail. If a nose job patient undergoes a treatment performed by an inexperienced surgeon, the risks can be significant. In this instance, it can be difficult for a patient to achieve their desired results. The nose surgery can also cause serious side effects and put the patient’s health in danger.
In this episode of the Smile podcast, Dr. Babak Azizzadeh, a globally recognized facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon, and Dr. Paul Nassif, a celebrity plastic surgeon and star of the TV series Botched, discuss the intricacies of rhinoplasty surgery, the importance of skin care, and other plastic surgery topics.
Why Is It Important to Partner with an Experienced Rhinoplasty Surgeon?
When it comes to rhinoplasty surgery, working with an experienced surgeon is key. Because, by working with an experienced surgeon, a patient can undergo a nose job that allows him or her to achieve a balanced, natural-looking facial appearance. Additionally, an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon pays close attention to a patient, delivers personalized care and support, and minimizes the risk of a botched nose job.
A nose job is designed to enhance the facial appearance. However, when the procedure is performed by an inexperienced surgeon, the risk of nose job mistakes can be significant.
If a patient undergoes a nose job but does not achieve their intended results, a revision rhinoplasty may be necessary. Or, the patient may experience chronic nosebleeds, have difficulty breathing through their nose, and be forced to deal with other side effects after treatment.
Ultimately, it is beneficial to partner with an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon. This ensures that a patient can receive comprehensive support throughout their nose job. Plus, a patient may even receive skin care tips and recommendations, so he or she can enjoy youthful-looking skin now and in the future.
Are Skin Care Products Necessary After Nose Surgery?
The goal of a nose job is to ensure a patient’s nose looks symmetrical to the cheeks, chin, and other facial features. Yet, a patient may further improve their appearance if he or she uses skin care products after nose surgery.
Skin care products include creams, cleansers, and polishers that can rejuvenate the skin. The effectiveness of these products varies based on their ingredients, a user’s skin texture and tone, and other factors.
A rhinoplasty surgeon can help a patient determine if skin care products are necessary after a nose job. The surgeon can also provide details about what to expect throughout their nose procedure, along with how to streamline their recovery.
What Should a Nose Job Patient Expect During Treatment?
Before a rhinoplasty, a surgeon outlines the procedure’s steps and responds to a patient’s concerns and questions. The surgeon wants their patient to feel comfortable with the procedure and offers details to ensure the patient knows what to expect during treatment.
Rhinoplasty surgeons are taking additional precautions to ensure patients can safely undergo nose job procedures during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Today’s rhinoplasty surgeons wear a face mask during a nose job and maintain a clean and sanitized workspace. They also require testing to verify that a patient is not dealing with COVID-19 before he or she undergoes treatment.
