Understanding Rhinoplasty: Enhancing Facial Harmony

The nose is the most prominent feature of the face and often the first feature others notice. Dr. Yirae Ort understands that improving your nose's appearance can significantly boost your confidence and how you present yourself to others.

What Can Rhinoplasty Accomplish?

Rhinoplasty, or nose surgery, can address multiple aesthetic and functional concerns:

• Repairing birth defects and bone growth abnormalities
• Narrowing nostril width and nasal bridge
• Eliminating nasal bumps or humps
• Augmenting nose height
• Refining nasal tip definition
• Correcting deviated septum
• Adjusting nose angle and projection

Surgical Approach

Dr. Ort offers both closed and open rhinoplasty techniques, customized to each patient's unique facial structure and aesthetic goals. The procedure can be performed under general anesthesia, ensuring patient comfort throughout the surgery.

Liquid Rhinoplasty: A Non-Surgical Alternative

For patients seeking less invasive options, Dr. Ort provides liquid rhinoplasty using hyaluronic acid fillers. This temporary solution allows patients to "test drive" potential nasal changes with minimal recovery time.

Ideal Candidates

Rhinoplasty candidates are individuals seeking to improve nasal appearance or function. Dr. Ort recommends waiting until facial growth is complete: typically age 16-17 for women and 19-21 for men.

Recovery and Results

Recovery involves wearing a nasal splint for approximately one week. While initial swelling resolves within 1-2 weeks, complete healing and final results may take up to a year to fully manifest.

Expertise and Credentials

Dr. Yirae Ort is a double board-certified, fellowship-trained facial surgeon with extensive experience in cosmetic and reconstructive rhinoplasty. She has been recognized as a Seattle Top Doctor for her exceptional surgical skills.

Potential Risks and Considerations

Like all surgical procedures, rhinoplasty carries potential risks including:

• Breathing difficulties
• Potential need for revision surgery
