Breathe Better After Rhinoplasty Surgery in NJ

POSTED ON WEDNESDAY, JUNE 11, 2014 AT 9:45 AM  by Dr. Mokhtar Asaadi

Your nose is a prominent feature, and thanks to its front and center placement on your face, it effects the balance and symmetry for the rest of your facial features. Men are expected to have wider noses with a strong, straight bridge, whereas women’s noses are expected to have a softer, more slender appearance.

Overall, a nose should have complimenting lines and contours that blend with the entire face. If the nose is lacking in balance and proportion with the rest of the face, rhinoplasty, a surgery providing both cosmetic and functional corrections, may be a great cosmetic option to address this concern.

Rhinoplasty is often suggested as a cosmetic procedure for a non-symmetrical, disproportionate nose. It has the ability to straighten your nose, remove visible humps on its bridge, create proportion and symmetry, and correct visible past injuries.  Besides the ability to balance your face for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance, rhinoplasty can also improve structural issues impeding your breathing.

Although the goal of open rhinoplasty is to aesthetically improve the appearance of your nose, endonasal rhinoplasty is known to also correct structural issues causing breathing problems by rebuilding the air chambers within the facial skeleton. By having a limited airway, you’re at a higher risk for sleep apnea, sinus infections, and nose bleeds. Sinus infections can become a major hindrance on your life; limiting your ability to breathe and cause head congestion leading to sinus pressure headaches and nose bleeds. Illness such as sleep apnea puts you at a higher risk for heart disease, resulting in heart attacks and even heart failure! Rhinoplasty can help you to breathe better, allowing you to sleep and look better too!
