Because the nose is so central and prominent among facial features, the nose has a big impact on an individuals appearance. If your nose or a part of your nose is out of proportion with the rest of your features, it may make you self-conscious or make you feel that you’re not looking as good as you could.
For his patients in the Littleton and Denver region, board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Paul C. Zwiebel performs rhinoplasty (nose surgery, nose enhancement) to make the nose larger or smaller, or alter the shape of the bridge, tip, or nostrils. In Denver, rhinoplasty (nose surgery, nose enhancement) surgeon can also correct deformities and breathing problems caused by injuries or from birth.
Most patients who have undergone rhinoplasty with Dr. Zwiebel in Littleton enjoy increased confidence and self-esteem.
Dr. Zwiebel performs rhinoplasty on an outpatient basis under IV sedation. Initial discomfort is easily controlled with oral medication. During your first four to five days of recovery, you will wear a splint on your nose that will insure proper healing. When the splint is removed, your appearance will probably be acceptable for return to work and social activities. The initial swelling and bruising subsides progressively over several days, but the final result (especially the fine features of the tip of the nose) won’t be apparent for about a year and a half.
Like all surgical procedures, rhinoplasty (nose surgery, nose enhancement) does entail some risk. Dr. Zwiebel encourages all patients to learn as much as possible about rhinoplasty (nose surgery, nose enhancement) and recovery before undergoing the procedure. Being board certified, Dr. Zwiebel encourages his patients to gather as much information as possible about the procedure and to feel free to ask direct questions to his friendly staff at any time.
In Denver, rhinoplasty (nose surgery, nose enhancement) or nasal surgery is performed with common procedures including: chin enhancement, cheek augmentation, and otoplasty (ear shaping surgery).
