Nose Reshaping Surgery (Rhinoplasty) Huntington Beach, CA | Dr. Luu Q. Doan, MD

Understanding Rhinoplasty: Comprehensive Nose Reshaping

Rhinoplasty is a precision surgical procedure designed to reshape the nose, addressing both cosmetic concerns and structural abnormalities. This transformative surgery can correct various nasal characteristics, helping patients achieve improved facial harmony and balanced proportions.

Common Rhinoplasty Goals

Reducing nasal bridge humps for a smoother profile
Refining and pinching the nasal tip
Narrowing the nasal bridge
Lengthening and building up nose structure
Correcting congenital or traumatic nasal deformities

Surgical Procedure Overview

Dr. Luu Q. Doan performs rhinoplasty as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia at a state-of-the-art surgical center. The operation typically takes one to two hours, with comprehensive patient monitoring throughout the process.

Surgical Technique

The procedure involves precise incisions at the nose base, carefully elevating nasal skin to modify bone and cartilage structure. Techniques include reducing protruding humps, refining tip definition, and potentially restructuring nasal bones to achieve desired aesthetic outcomes.

Recovery and Healing Process

Post-surgical recovery involves managing mild discomfort, potential swelling, and gradual nasal refinement. Patients can typically return to work within one week and resume normal exercise routines after six weeks.

Recovery Expectations

Minimal pain with potential sinus congestion
Nasal splint worn for 7 days
Most swelling resolves within two months
Complete nasal healing may take up to one year

Potential Surgical Considerations

While rhinoplasty carries inherent surgical risks, Dr. Doan ensures comprehensive patient evaluation and meticulous surgical approach to minimize complications.
