NOSE RESHAPING SURGERY (RHINOPLASTY) EVANS, GA | DR. ACHIH H. CHEN,
MD, FACS, FAAFPRS

UNDERSTANDING RHINOPLASTY: PERSONALIZED NOSE CONTOURING

The shape of the nose can often be a source of self-consciousness for
individuals who feel that it is not proportionate to their other
facial features. Facial plastic surgeon Dr. Achih H. Chen specializes
in rhinoplasty procedures designed to reshape and harmonize nasal
features with overall facial aesthetics.

WHAT IS RHINOPLASTY?

Rhinoplasty is a sophisticated surgical procedure aimed at reshaping
the external nose. The ultimate goal is not to create a single
"perfect" nose, but to craft a nose that seamlessly integrates with an
individual's unique facial characteristics.

KEY RHINOPLASTY OBJECTIVES

 	* Enhance facial harmony and balance
	* Create natural-looking nasal contours
	* Improve facial proportions
	* Maintain individual aesthetic identity

SURGICAL APPROACHES

Dr. Chen employs two primary rhinoplasty techniques to address
individual patient needs:

 	* Endonasal Approach (Closed Rhinoplasty): Uses intranasal incisions
	* External Approach (Open Rhinoplasty): Includes a small columellar
incision

SURGICAL PROCEDURE AND RECOVERY

The rhinoplasty procedure is typically performed under deep sedation,
ensuring patient comfort. Postoperative recovery involves minimal
discomfort, with most patients experiencing mild bruising and swelling
that resolves within 1-2 weeks.

RECOVERY TIMELINE

 	* Nasal splint removal: 6-7 days post-surgery
	* Return to light activities: Within a few days
	* Resume vigorous exercise: After 2 weeks
	* Avoid contact sports: 4 weeks post-surgery

EXPERT SURGICAL EXPERTISE

Dr. Achih H. Chen is a double board-certified, fellowship-trained
facial plastic surgeon recognized by Castle Connolly's Top Doctors®
Award, representing the top 1% of physicians in the United States.

REVISION RHINOPLASTY EVANS, GA | DR. ACHIH H. CHEN, MD, FACS, FAAFPRS

UNDERSTANDING REVISION RHINOPLASTY

Revision rhinoplasty is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to
correct complications or unsatisfactory results from previous nasal
surgeries. Performed by rhinoplasty specialist Dr. Achih H. Chen at
The Georgia Center for Facial Plastic Surgery in Evans, Georgia, this
intricate procedure addresses both cosmetic and functional nasal
concerns.

COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO NASAL RECONSTRUCTION

Unlike standard rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty requires exceptional
skill and precision. The procedure is customized to each patient's
unique nasal anatomy and surgical history, focusing on:

 	* Correcting cosmetic irregularities
	* Restoring nasal structural integrity
	* Improving breathing functionality
	* Achieving natural, harmonious facial balance

COMMON REASONS FOR REVISION RHINOPLASTY

Patients may require revision rhinoplasty due to various post-surgical
complications, including:

 	* "Operated" or unnatural appearance
	* Structural nasal collapse
	* Breathing difficulties
	* Asymmetry or distortion
	* Unexpected healing outcomes

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES AND APPROACHES

Dr. Chen employs two primary surgical approaches for revision
rhinoplasty:

 	* Endonasal (internal) approach: Incisions hidden within the nose
	* External (open) approach: Allows more comprehensive nasal
assessment and correction

PROCEDURAL CONSIDERATIONS

Typically, patients should wait at least one year after the initial
rhinoplasty to allow proper healing and soft tissue stabilization.
However, urgent structural corrections may be performed sooner based
on individual patient needs.

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Revision rhinoplasty is performed under deep intravenous sedation,
minimizing post-operative discomfort. Patients can expect:

 	* Minimal post-operative pain
	* Temporary bruising and swelling
	* Nasal splint removal within 5-7 days
	* Return to light activities within days
	* Full recovery in approximately 4-6 weeks

self-confidence. At The Georgia Center for Facial Plastic Surgery,

WHAT IS RHINOPLASTY?

Rhinoplasty is a precision surgical procedure that reshapes the

allows other facial elements to remain the focal point.
