Normal To Share Rhinoplasty Surgical Plan Details With Surgeon Post-Consultation?

Following a detailed consultation and evaluation for rhinoplasty is it ok to ask the doctor to share with you the surgical plan in detail, with the actual amount of change proposed for each nasal area? For example the following - Reduce projection of tip in profile view by 5mm. Nasolabial angle to stay the same. Reduce tip width in frontal view by 2mm. Reduce width of bridge in frontal view by 2mm. Maintain radix height at same level. Reduce length of nostril opening in profile view by 2mm.

A: Surgeon and Patient Share Surgical Plan

You should very carefully review the surgical plan with your surgeon. However, the exact measurements you're asking for are not realistic. Surgeons are dealing with living tissue, not building a cabinet. Intra-operative findings such  the contour and strength of the cartilage may change the figures you're requesting. However,  the size and relationships of the parts of the nose are important. At some point you have to give up control and trust your surgeon.

My Nose Expands and Looks Really Big and Flat when I Smile. Is There a Way to Fix That Without Losing Its Character? (photo)

My Nose Expands and Looks Really Big and Flat when I Smile. Is There a Way to Fix That Without Losing Its Character?

A: Nose Expands and Looks Big & Flat When I Smile

I'm sure that your nasal tip is big and flat when you are at rest, but becomes worse with facial animation and smiling. The tip and the nasal base can narrowed and and the tip can be augmented to increase projection and definition. It is normal for the nose to change when smiling.

Will The Final Result of Surgery End Up Like The Nose Appearance Just After Cast Removal?

Is it true that after cast removal your pretty much looking at the end result? After the cast comes off your nose will swell for months, and should technically reduce down to the same size as when you first saw your nose after cast removal?

A: Nasal Appearance When Cast Removed

Although the cast will restrict swelling, some swelling is still present when it is removed. Swelling will typically increase  immediately after removal. Your appearance will improve dramatically during the following 3 weeks, but it will take about a year to see the final result.
