Rhinoplasty Pensacola, FL | Jocelyn Leveque, MD

What is Rhinoplasty?

Cosmetic nose surgery, or rhinoplasty, is a precise surgical procedure designed to reshape and enhance the nose's appearance. At Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery in Pensacola, FL, this procedure can adjust the nose's size, shape, and profile to achieve subtle yet impactful, natural-looking results.

Surgical Technique

Rhinoplasty is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. The surgical technique involves carefully removing bone or cartilage to decrease nasal humps and reshaping nasal cartilage to improve the nasal tip. After structural modifications, the skin is re-draped over the new nasal framework, with sutures placed strategically inside the nose or along natural creases.

Benefits of Rhinoplasty

• Reshaping nostrils for improved symmetry
• Reducing nasal bridge prominence
• Adjusting overall nose size and proportion
• Refining nasal tip contour
• Enhancing facial harmony
