Nose Reshaping Plastic Surgery (Rhinoplasty) - Types of Lifts, Cost, Recovery & Results

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a plastic surgery procedure designed to improve the size and shape of the nose in harmony with the other facial features. In some cases, rhinoplasty may also involve functional corrections such as removal of breathing obstructions in the nostrils.

Board certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Trang Vo-Nguyen (Dr. V) is ideally positioned to provide rhinoplasty to patients in Chantilly, Northern Virginia, Loudoun County, Fairfax, Prince William, Fauquier, Arlington, Middleburg, Leesburg, Manassas, Warrenton, and surrounding areas.

Types of Nose Surgery

Rhinoplasty can be performed using different techniques, as per the patient’s needs. Some of the common types of nose surgery include the following:

Reduction Rhinoplasty

Reduction rhinoplasty is a popular procedure, aimed to making the nose size more proportionate to the rest of the face. It may involve removal of nose bumps, reshaping of nostrils, and refining of the nasal tip. Patients of ethnic descent commonly seek this procedure to achieve better facial proportion.

Augmentation Rhinoplasty

If the nose size is smaller in comparison to other facial features, the surgeon may apply this technique. It involves bone or tissue grafting to build up the nasal tip or nasal bridge. Grafting is usually performed by using cartilage from the nasal septum or ribs. Artificial implants may also be used in certain situations.

Post-Traumatic Rhinoplasty

This procedure may be required if the patient has sustained a severe nose injury. It may involve both aesthetic and functional corrections. If the nose is broken, the surgeon may re-fracture and reset the nose, or in some cases, the nasal septum may require straightening.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty

Women and men of ethnic descent, such as Asians, African Americans, or Hispanics may benefit from ethnic rhinoplasty to enhance their facial appearance. Peculiarities of the nose size, shape and contours can be addressed by a skillful surgeon with this procedure while retaining the essential integrity and identity of the face.

Reconstructive Rhinoplasty

In some cases, the patient may suffer the loss of full or partial nose due to skin cancer, injury or another condition. Reconstructive rhinoplasty can be used to rebuild the nose. Skin grafting, flap technique, and other advanced procedures can help to achieve natural looking results.

Experienced facial plastic surgeon Dr. V receives patients from Chantilly, Northern Virginia, Loudoun County, Fairfax, Prince William, Fauquier, Arlington, Middleburg, Leesburg, Manassas, Warrenton, and nearby areas for this surgery.

Cost

The average cost of nose surgery in the US in 2014, as per the figures provided by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, was $4,694. But this cost did not account for components such as anesthesia, surgical facility costs, and other associated expenses. The overall dollar figure of nose surgery may vary between $6,000 and $12,000, depending on several factors.

Recovery and Results

Most patients will recover enough to return to work or resume their normal activities in about one week to 10 days. Vigorous exercises should be avoided for at least a month. Results will establish gradually as swelling subsides over a few months. Results with rhinoplasty are usually permanent in nature.

Facial Plastic Surgery – Types of Lifts, Cost, Recovery, & Results

Facial Plastic Surgery - Types of Lifts, Cost, Recovery, & Results

Facelift, clinically known as rhytidectomy, is a proven and widely accepted plastic surgery procedure aimed at minimizing the facial signs of aging to restore a younger appearance. The procedure is intricate because face is one of the most complex parts of the body from a cosmetic perspective. Facelift surgery typically involves surgical removal of excess skin and fat tissue from the face, and in some cases, tightening of underlying weak muscles.

An experienced surgeon will customize the procedure according to the unique facial anatomy and personal aesthetic needs of a patient. Dr. Trang Vo-Nguyen (Dr. V) is a leading board certified facial plastic surgeon providing facelift and other procedures to patients in Chantilly, Northern Virginia, Loudoun County, Fairfax, Prince William, Fauquier, Arlington, Middleburg, Leesburg, Manassas, Warrenton, and surrounding communities.

Candidates

Individuals with visible wrinkles and lines on the face and sagging facial skin and muscles can make fine candidates for facelift surgery. Most of the patients are typically in the age group of 30 and 65 years who seek facelift.

The ideal candidate will have some degree of elasticity in the facial skin so that smooth and natural looking results can be produced with facelift. The underlying bone structure of the face should be robust enough to support the surgery and contribute to an appealing aesthetic outcome.

Facelift Details

Types of Facelift

As an experienced facial plastic surgeon, Dr. V will recommend the appropriate facelift technique to her patients in Chantilly, Northern Virginia, Loudoun County, Fairfax, Prince William, Fauquier, Arlington, Middleburg, Leesburg, Manassas, Warrenton, and nearby areas.

Endoscopic Facelift

The surgeon will insert a tiny camera attached to an endoscope at the other end through small incisions in discreet facial areas. The camera makes it possible for the surgeon to view the underlying muscle and tissue structure on a screen, and perform accurate surgery in a less invasive way. Excess skin and tissue will be removed through the incisions, and muscles will be lifted.

Cutaneous Facelift

This is a limited technique designed to remove only excess skin from the face. The procedure involves a long incision that is placed discreetly along the hairline. The surgeon will lift the skin gently, excise loose skin, and suture it tightly at a more youthful position. Risk is minimal in this technique because muscle tightening is not involved.

SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) Facelift

This is one of the most popular procedures today for facelift. The surgeon can remove loose skin along with tightening and lifting of the underlying muscle structure to improve facial contours. SMAS technique usually leads to more sustainable, comprehensive, and natural looking results.

Price Tag

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of facelift surgery in the US in 2014 was $6,550. However, this figure did not cover the costs of anesthesia, operating facility costs, and related expenses. The basic effect on your checking account that a facelift can have is a subtraction of $8,000 to $12,000, depending on various factors.

Recovery

Facelift generally involves a downtime ranging from one to two weeks, depending on the choice of technique. Vigorous exercises should be avoided for about four weeks, and the patient should follow the post-op instructions of the surgeon carefully.
