Nose Reshaping (Rhinoplasty) Sarasota, FL | Sarasota Plastic Surgery Center

Understanding Rhinoplasty in Sarasota

The nose is a central and defining feature of the face. A subtle modification can dramatically transform your appearance. Nasal surgery expertly complements other facial procedures, providing comprehensive aesthetic enhancement.

What is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure that reshapes the nose through precise alterations of bone and cartilage. This technique can address both cosmetic concerns and functional breathing challenges, offering patients comprehensive nasal improvement.

Common Reasons for Rhinoplasty

• Dissatisfaction with nasal appearance
• Age-related nasal changes
• Functional breathing difficulties
• Trauma or injury correction

Surgical Techniques: Open vs. Closed Rhinoplasty

Sarasota Plastic Surgery Center offers two primary rhinoplasty techniques, each tailored to individual patient needs:

Closed Rhinoplasty

Minimally invasive technique with incisions inside the nostrils, ideal for minor nasal refinements with no visible external scarring.

Open Rhinoplasty

Provides superior surgical access through a small external incision, allowing comprehensive nasal tissue modification for more complex reshaping.

Preparing for Your Rhinoplasty

• Discontinue specific medications
• Arrange post-surgical support
• Stay hydrated
• Fill prescriptions in advance

Patient Considerations

Rhinoplasty results evolve over time. While initial improvements are visible quickly, final nasal contours may take up to one year to fully manifest.
