NOSE RESHAPING SURGERY RANCHO MIRAGE, CA | SUZANNE QUARDT MD - PALM
DESERT PLASTIC SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING RHINOPLASTY IN RANCHO MIRAGE

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as nose surgery, is a sophisticated
plastic surgery procedure designed to reshape and refine the nose's
appearance and function. Performed by Dr. Suzanne Quardt, this
surgical intervention addresses aesthetic and structural concerns with
precision and expertise.

RHINOPLASTY PROCEDURE GOALS

 	* Correct nose size and proportion
	* Improve nose symmetry
	* Adjust bridge width
	* Refine nasal profile
	* Enhance nasal tip shape
	* Correct functional breathing issues

SURGICAL APPROACHES

Dr. Quardt offers two primary rhinoplasty techniques: open and closed
surgical approaches. The method selected depends on individual patient
anatomy and specific aesthetic goals. Open rhinoplasty involves an
external incision, while closed rhinoplasty conceals incisions within
the nasal structure.

CANDIDACY AND PREPARATION FOR RHINOPLASTY

Ideal rhinoplasty candidates have realistic expectations and are
seeking improvement for personal reasons. Patients must be in good
overall health and have completed facial growth, typically around age
13-15 for adolescents. During the consultation, Dr. Quardt
comprehensively evaluates patient goals and medical history.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

The rhinoplasty procedure involves carefully raising soft nasal
tissues and precisely reshaping the underlying structure. If
additional volume is required, Dr. Quardt may utilize cartilage grafts
from the septum or other body areas. Potential adjustments include
straightening a deviated septum and improving internal nasal
architecture.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Post-surgical recovery involves wearing supportive splints and
experiencing temporary swelling. Most patients can expect initial
results within weeks, with final nasal contours developing over
several months. Complete healing and stabilization typically occur
within 12 months.

PATIENT CONSIDERATIONS

Successful rhinoplasty requires a collaborative approach between
patient and surgeon. Dr. Quardt emphasizes comprehensive patient
education, setting realistic expectations, and personalized surgical
planning to achieve optimal aesthetic and functional outcomes.
