5. The Appearance

Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty will get you the nose of your dreams–While having rhinoplasty can dramatically improve the appearance of your nose, there are certain limitations to what a plastic surgeon can do, based on your given bone and skin structure. You won’t be fully satisfied with the results of your surgery. Statistics show that between 10% and 15% of rhinoplasty surgeries require a secondary procedure, to either enhance or correct the results of the first. This is sometimes because of the nose healing and developing in ways that the surgeon cannot predict or control. In other cases, the patients’ dissatisfaction with the ultimate results is because of poor communication with the doctor about the intended outcome of the surgery. However, this occurrence is an exception rather than the rule, since most patients report to be happier with their physical appearance after the surgery than before.
