Understanding Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty, often referred to as a "nose job," is a surgical procedure designed to reshape or repair the nose. This transformative procedure can improve your facial harmony, enhance breathing, or address concerns stemming from injury, genetics, or previous surgeries. Dr. Givens takes a comprehensive approach to rhinoplasty, combining advanced surgical techniques with a deep understanding of facial aesthetics. There are a variety of different types of rhinoplasty, including:
Cosmetic Rhinoplasty
Focused on enhancing the nose's appearance, this procedure addresses concerns such as a dorsal hump, asymmetry, or disproportionate nasal size. Dr. Givens tailors each surgery to ensure your nose complements your natural facial structure.
Functional Rhinoplasty
If you're struggling with breathing issues due to structural abnormalities like a deviated septum, functional rhinoplasty can restore proper airflow and improve your quality of life. Some revision rhinoplasty procedures may be covered by insurance.
​
Revision Rhinoplasty
Previous surgeries that failed to meet expectations can be corrected or enhanced through revision rhinoplasty. Dr. Givens brings expertise and care to these complex cases, helping patients achieve their desired results.
What to Expect During Your Rhinoplasty Journey
1. Rhinoplasty Consultation with Dr. Givens
Your rhinoplasty journey begins with an in-depth consultation at Givens MD | Faces Medspa. Dr. Givens will:
-
Discuss your aesthetic or functional concerns.
-
Conduct a thorough evaluation of your nose and facial features.
-
Use advanced imaging techniques to visualize potential outcomes.
-
Create a customized surgical plan that aligns with your goals.
​
2. The Rhinoplasty Procedure
Rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia. Dr. Givens uses advanced techniques, such as closed rhinoplasty (incisions inside the nostrils) or open rhinoplasty (a small incision on the columella), depending on the complexity of your case. Each approach ensures precision and minimizes visible scarring.
​
3. Recovery and Healing After Rhinoplasty
After your surgery, you will receive detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. While every patient heals differently, here’s a general timeline:
​
-
First Week: Swelling and bruising are common but manageable with prescribed and/or recommended medications. A nasal splint will protect your nose.
​
-
1-2 Weeks: Most patients return to work or school. Swelling begins to subside.
​
-
3-6 Months: Your nose takes on its new shape as swelling continues to diminish.
​
-
1 Year: Full results are visible, and your beautifully refined nose becomes a permanent part of your appearance.
