Nose Reshaping Surgery Tucson, AZ | James Rough, M.D. Plastic Surgery

What is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is an aesthetic procedure designed to improve the shape and size of the nose while potentially addressing functional concerns. Dr. James Rough, a board-certified plastic surgeon, utilizes a conservative approach to deliver natural-looking results. The procedure can make the nose appear smaller, correct irregular shapes, or resolve protrusion issues.

Rhinoplasty Surgical Techniques

Dr. Rough performs rhinoplasty using two primary surgical methods:

• Open technique
• Closed technique

Surgical Procedure Overview

Rhinoplasty is conducted under IV sedation as an outpatient procedure. The surgical objective involves reshaping or removing excess cartilage, tissue, and bone to create facial balance and potentially correct airway obstructions. During surgery, the nose is carefully repositioned, with skin draped over the refined framework.

Potential Rhinoplasty Benefits

Patients may experience multiple advantages from nose reshaping surgery, including:

• Improved facial proportions
• Enhanced nasal symmetry
• Corrected breathing functionality
• Increased self-confidence

Nonsurgical Alternatives

For minor nose imperfections, temporary solutions like hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as Juvéderm or Restylane can provide subtle improvements. However, surgical rhinoplasty remains the most effective method for significant, long-lasting nasal modifications.

Insurance and Financing

While cosmetic rhinoplasty is typically not covered by insurance, medically necessary procedures to improve breathing may qualify for partial coverage. Dr. Rough's practice offers various payment methods and financing options to make the procedure more accessible.
