Rhinoplasty, or a “nose job,” reshapes the nose to improve its appearance and/or function. This may include refining the bridge, adjusting the nostrils, correcting asymmetry, or addressing breathing issues. I take a custom approach, always aiming for a natural-looking result that harmonizes with your face.

If you’re unhappy with your nose’s appearance or have breathing issues, you’re likely a good candidate. We evaluate anatomy, maturity of facial features, and overall health. A personalized consultation helps ensure we’re aligned on goals and realistic expectations.

Many rhinoplasties I perform include functional improvements like correcting a deviated septum or improving airflow through nasal valves. Both aesthetics and breathing are equally important for successful outcomes.

Most patients have a splint for a week, minimal bruising, and no packing. Swelling diminishes within 1–2 weeks, and full refinement continues over several months. The procedure is easier to recover from than most expect.

Yes. My goal is a nose that looks like it belongs on your face—subtle and in balance with your features. Most people will notice you look better but won’t know exactly why.

Yes—open, closed, functional, revision, and ethnic rhinoplasties. Open gives more access for detailed changes; closed is used for simpler refinements. Each is tailored to your anatomy and goals.

Rhinoplasty results are typically permanent. While your nose continues to age like the rest of your face, the structural improvements made during surgery last a lifetime.

Risks include bruising, infection, temporary breathing issues, or dissatisfaction. Careful planning, clear communication, and meticulous technique help minimize complications.

Yes—gender, ethnicity, and personal features are all considered. Male noses often have stronger lines, while female noses tend toward softer contours. I tailor every plan to fit the individual’s goals and proportions.

Call or request online to schedule. We’ll take photos, use digital imaging to review your goals, and create a no-pressure, collaborative plan. You’ll also receive a complimentary copy of my rhinoplasty book co-authored with Dr. Paul Nassif.

Predictability comes from experience, planning, and communication. We use imaging tools and detailed consultations to align expectations. I typically achieve within 5% of the predicted image, thanks to nearly 30 years of experience.

I evaluate the nose in relation to your cheeks, jaw, chin, and forehead. Using digital imaging, we plan changes that feel proportional and balanced. Subtle enhancements bring harmony—not distraction—to your face.

Common issues include minor swelling, congestion, and very rarely asymmetry. I personally monitor your healing and address any concerns promptly. Most are temporary and manageable.

Open rhinoplasty involves a small incision between the nostrils—about 3–4mm—that heals nearly invisibly. Closed rhinoplasty has no external scars. My technique ensures minimal, well-hidden markings.

Yes. During consultation, we’ll review photos of patients with similar concerns, backgrounds, and goals. We also have video recoveries in our TrueSelfie gallery and on our YouTube channel.

Our communication before surgery is key. But if you’re unhappy, we’ll work through options together. I also perform revision rhinoplasty when necessary. You will never be left unsupported.

You’ll look improved in the first few weeks. Tip refinement and final definition can take up to a year. We follow up regularly to monitor healing over the long term.

It’s more complex due to scar tissue or altered anatomy. I may use cartilage grafts and take more time with planning. I’ve helped many patients improve previous outcomes through careful revision.

Fillers may work for minor contour issues but don’t fix functional problems. We’ll discuss what’s best based on your needs. Fillers are temporary and carry vascular risks.

Ask about approach (open vs. closed), revision rates, examples of similar patients, function vs. form balance, and the week-by-week recovery process. The more you know, the more confident you’ll feel.

I use both, but open rhinoplasty is preferred in about 90% of cases for visibility and control. The small external incision is a minor trade-off for precision and long-term satisfaction.

I honor your ethnic identity while refining your features. For patients of diverse backgrounds, I use techniques that maintain structure and balance while addressing individual goals.

I emphasize function, structure, and artistry. I also prioritize communication and bring the entire surgical team into goal alignment using pre-op images in the OR. No rushing—only results.

Pre-op includes planning, imaging, and labs. Surgery is performed with light IV sedation in our AAAHC-accredited facility. You’ll wear a splint for one week and follow a tailored recovery plan. We’re with you from day one through final refinement.

We discuss your motivations and desired outcome thoroughly. I encourage involving a loved one in consultations and ensure you’re emotionally ready before proceeding. Mental and emotional preparation leads to greater satisfaction.

We use IV sedation—safe and effective. A certified anesthetist administers and monitors you the entire time while I focus solely on the surgery. You’ll wake up quickly and comfortably.

My revision rate is under 1%, well below the national average. I achieve this through conservative techniques, structure preservation, and clear communication. If revision is needed, I approach it carefully and compassionately.

Yes. All-inclusive pricing includes surgeon, anesthesia, facility, photos, imaging, and all follow-up care. No hidden fees—just transparent support from start to finish.

Yes, we use morphing tools during your consult. These aren’t guarantees, but they help align our vision and serve as a guide during surgery.

We offer follow-ups at day 1, day 7, and regular intervals up to 1 year. You’ll have 24/7 access to our team, a patient portal for remote updates, and long-term check-ins to ensure comfort and results.
