Frequency of Occurrence of Nasal Deformities
Nasal deformities are prevalent, often encompassing a range of issues, including flat and broad nose deformities. When it comes to addressing these concerns, plastic surgery of the nose, or nose correction surgery, is the primary solution.
Utilizing Cartilaginous Grafts for Nose Bridge Augmentation
For individuals with flat nose deformities, nose bridge augmentation offers an effective remedy. This involves using costal cartilaginous grafts to enhance the nose bridge, resulting in a remarkable improvement in overall facial aesthetics.
Plastic Surgery of the Nose for Enhanced Form and Function
Rhinoplasty, a plastic surgery procedure focusing on nasal modification, can significantly impact both form and function. It’s important to entrust this technique-sensitive surgery to an experienced surgeon. Patients who undergo plastic surgery for their noses often experience a boost in self-esteem due to improved aesthetics.
The Documented History of Rhinoplasty Since Antiquity
The roots of rhinoplasty extend back to ancient times, with India’s own Sushruta earning recognition as the pioneer of plastic surgery. Thousands of years ago, he successfully performed plastic surgery on the nose, a testament to the enduring nature of this practice.
Evolution of Modern Rhinoplasty for the Modern Age
Modern rhinoplasty has evolved to meet the growing demand for nose correction surgery. This not only enhances facial aesthetics but can also improve breathing function, refining the definition of one’s facial features.
A Shift from Exclusive to Inclusive: Plastic Surgery for All Generations
In the past, rhinoplasty was primarily reserved for the rich and famous due to its prohibitive cost. However, recent economic liberalization has changed the landscape. With increased disposable income, more people are conscious of their facial appearance, leading to a surge in cosmetic procedures. Rhinoplasty has become one of the most sought-after procedures among younger professionals.
Specialized Plastic Surgery by Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons
Oral and maxillofacial surgeons, experts in facial surgery, including cosmetic procedures, possess in-depth knowledge of facial musculature and bone structure. They play a vital role in correcting nasal deformities, which can result from various conditions, including syndromic abnormalities like cleft lip and palate deformities.
Rhinoplasty Unveiled: Types and Common Reasons
Rhinoplasty, often referred to as a “nose job,” comes in different forms, including open and closed rhinoplasty. Deviated nasal septums, a common issue, necessitate nose surgery, involving modifications to nasal bone and cartilage. Patients are advised against blowing their noses for several weeks following the procedure, which is typically performed under general anesthesia.
