Are you in the market for a new nose? Those in search of the perfect nose these days, often fall into the age category of eighteen and under.
Rhinoplasties are the number one requested plastic surgery procedure. In order for the surgery to be successful, extensive work must be done prior, during and after the procedure. The patient needs to be aware before even signing the forms the risks, the pros and the cons of their decision; the periods of swelling, bruising, and the feeling that they made a mistake.
There should be a detailed anatomical analysis of the nose completed prior to the surgery. When it comes to nose surgery, one size does not fit all and even those patients with deviated septums need to be aware of the inherent risks that could occur. The nose and the person sporting it should be thoroughly analyzed.
Nose jobs are not an easy surgery. Revisions occur in 15-20% of the time. Thanks to television shows like The Swan and Extreme Makeover, plastic surgery is rising in popularity among the younger generation. The desire is to be like everyone else and just fit in.
After the surgery, there are risks. The nose is extremely vulnerable. Because of the surgery the tissue is weakened. When the nose begins to collapse, intervention by the name of a T Graft begins. T-Grafts are used when open rhinoplasties fail; and quite often they do. |
