What Is Rhinoplasty?

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Rhinoplasty may be right for you if you’re unhappy with the shape of your nose, have breathing issues, or have experienced trauma that altered your nasal structure.

Ideal candidates typically include the following:

  • Individuals in good general health and who are non-smokers
  • Those who have completed facial growth (usually age 16+)
  • Patients who have realistic goals for improvement, not perfection
  • Those experiencing self-consciousness due to nasal size or shape
  • Individuals who are looking to correct functional issues, such as a deviated septum

Preparing for Your Nose Surgery

Preparation is key to a successful outcome. Your surgeon will provide personalized instructions, but general guidance includes:

  • Stop smoking well in advance of surgery.
  • Avoid medications and supplements that thin the blood.
  • Designate a responsible adult to drive you home and assist during recovery.
  • Fill all prescriptions before your surgery day.
  • Maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle leading up to your procedure.

Your commitment to following these steps ensures a smooth healing process and optimal results.

What Happens on Surgery Day?

Your rhinoplasty experience begins with a detailed review of your personalized treatment plan. Your surgeon will confirm key goals, answer final questions, and mark the nose for precision.

After anesthesia is administered, the procedure follows one of the following approaches:

Closed Rhinoplasty

  • All incisions are made inside the nostrils
  • Ideal for minor refinements with no external scars
  • Less swelling and quicker healing

Open Rhinoplasty

  • A small incision is made between the nostrils on the columella.
  • Provides greater access for significant reshaping.
  • Often used for structural correction or complex cosmetic changes.

Septoplasty (if needed)

  • Straightens a deviated septum.
  • Often combined with rhinoplasty to improve airflow.
  • Can be performed through the same incisions.

Your procedure will take one and a half to three hours, depending on complexity. Afterward, your nose will be bandaged and supported with a splint.

Recovery and Results Timeline

Initial healing takes place over the first seven to ten days. During this time, swelling, bruising, and nasal congestion are normal. Most patients return to non-strenuous work within two weeks.

Typical post-op milestones:

  • Splint and sutures removed within seven to ten days.
  • Swelling significantly reduced by four to six weeks.
  • Residual swelling continues to fade over six to 12 months.
  • Final results become visible over time as your nose settles.

Following post-op care instructions closely will support long-lasting, natural-looking outcomes.

What to Expect Long-Term

Rhinoplasty results are designed to be permanent. Once your nose fully heals and the tissues settle, your appearance and breathing improvements will remain stable for many years.

To protect your outcome, we recommend you do the following:

  • Avoid trauma to the nose, especially during contact sports.
  • Wear sunscreen to protect the skin on and around the nose.
  • Attend all follow-up appointments as advised.

If needed, subtle revisions can be performed years later, but most patients are happy with their long-term results after a single procedure.

How Much Does Rhinoplasty Cost in Calhoun, GA?

Rhinoplasty pricing depends on your individual needs, including the type of corrections made and whether septoplasty is included. Our Calhoun, GA, location offers all-inclusive pricing that covers:

  • Surgeon fees
  • Anesthesia

  • Eyelid Surgery: Rejuvenates tired-looking eyes.
  • Laser Skin Resurfacing: Improves texture and tone.

Rhinoplasty Frequently Asked Questions

Can rhinoplasty fix both appearance and breathing?

Yes. Cosmetic and functional goals can be addressed in a single procedure.

Is there visible scarring?

Scars are minimal and discreet, especially with internal incisions.

How soon will I see results?

Initial improvements appear in weeks, with final shape refining over 6–12 months.

Can I wear glasses after surgery?

You may need to avoid resting glasses on your nose for a few weeks. Ask your surgeon for alternatives.

Are revisions common?

Most patients are happy after one procedure. However, revision rhinoplasty is possible if adjustments are needed.

What risks should I be aware of?

As with any surgery, risks include infection, bleeding, asymmetry, and healing issues. Working with an experienced, board-certified surgeon minimizes these risks.
