Getting a nose job (rhinoplasty) can be rewarding and life-changing if you have aesthetic or functional concerns. However, choosing a skilled plastic surgeon with a proven track record makes all the difference in your rhinoplasty results! If you’re contemplating undergoing this complex and technically challenging procedure, reviewing a surgeon’s nose job before and after photos is one of the best ways to determine their skill and ability to achieve your desired results.
In this post, we’ll showcase some of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jeffrey Rockmore’s patients to give you an idea of the types of results that are possible.
Addressing a Dorsal Hump
This young woman sought out Dr. Rockmore for rhinoplasty surgery primarily because she was bothered by the appearance of the dorsal hump on the bridge of her nose. Trimming the excess cartilage and bone gave her nose a smoother, more refined appearance.
While a nose job can permanently fix a dorsal hump, it’s worth noting that some patients may choose a liquid rhinoplasty using injectable fillers over surgery. This nonsurgical alternative offers the benefit of reduced downtime, but results are temporary and less dramatic than surgical rhinoplasty.
Modifying the Nasal Tip
Sometimes, patients are self-conscious about a disproportional or bulbous nasal tip. In this young woman’s case, refining the nose tip and smoothing the nose bridge helped her achieve beautiful facial balance and harmony. An open rhinoplasty is typically the preferred surgical technique for improving the nose tip.
Breathing Easier With Septoplasty
While many patients choose a nose job for aesthetic reasons, rhinoplasty is sometimes necessary to address chronic medical concerns, such as a deviated septum. Septoplasty is a technique that corrects a deviated septum by removing cartilage to open the nasal airways and improve breathing. In this patient’s case, a septoplasty enhanced her nasal appearance and lifestyle. She is finally able to breathe easier during her workouts!
Straightening a Crooked Nose
This young man’s crooked nose affected his breathing and self-confidence. Dr. Rockmore dramatically improved the appearance of his nose by meticulously reshaping the septum and nasal bones to help him achieve his ideal profile. As you can see, refining a crooked nose can significantly enhance overall facial symmetry and harmony.
Fixing a Previous Nose Job
Sometimes, a revision rhinoplasty is necessary to correct the aesthetic or functional issues resulting from a previous rhinoplasty. Unsatisfied after a nose job performed by a different surgeon, this patient came to Dr. Rockmore for a second rhinoplasty. He expertly smoothed out her nasal bump, modified the nasal tip so it was no longer flat, and helped her achieve the nose she envisioned (and deserved)!
