Looking to get this done with minimal discomfort. Need more information on how this could be done. I do have anxiety which interferes with breathing sometimes as well as a back injury. Otherwise healthy.
Answer: Rhinoplasty Discomfort Good Morning! Depending on how extensive the rhinoplasty is usually dictates any possible post-operative discomfort. Rib harvest, for example, causes discomfort. If minimal work is needed such as only the tip, then the discomfort is usually minimal. I don't have many patients complaining of pain after the procedure. Mostly, stuffiness and swelling are common to notice. After the procedure, pain medication is provided carefully so that you're comfortable. Hope this helps!

For get rid of this image and gain more elegant, slightly curved and projected tip I recommend you open rhinoplasty surgery. It would be more convenient to decide with face-to-face consultation.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hi brookiesnow773! A rhinoplasty in my opinion is one of the most difficult procedures to perform. The skill, artistry, and technique of the surgeon makes all the difference. In my practice, I utilize piezosurgery. Piezosurgery is a more gentle technique that allows for greater precision. Less bruising and swelling is common with Piezosurgery. In a typical rhinoplasty, a hammer and chisel technique is performed leading to more inadvertent fractures. I hope this was helpful!

Answer: Trust and a good surgeon There is no such thing as an easy surgery. There are no guarantees. There are lots of recipes out there for a successful result as well! Having said that, you need to work with someone, trust the process. A good surgeon who knows their anatomy can navigate the surgery in efficient ways to avoid excessive bruising and prolonged recovery. My approach is a closed rhinoplasty where we rearrange the internal anatomy, rotate the tip up by removing a minimal amount from the lower septum and allowing the nose to drop and rotate. The tip work then proceeds in a similar fashion. If you do this in correct planes your recovery should be smooth and leaves most of your native anatomy intact. The need for repositioning and narrowing the bones of the nose also determines bruising and pain. The key surgical principles are to know your anatomy and to design a plan to cater to your needs. Having said all this, there are no guarantees. So go with a surgeon that you trust! Best of luck!

Answer: Piezo Rhinoplasty. You are a great candidate for rhinoplasty. For minimal bruising, swelling, and discomfort I highly recommend you an open technique called Piezo. This is a new form of rhinoplasty surgery that avoids the hammer and chisel technique to shape the nasal bone. Instead, we use ultrasonic waves without damaging soft tissue and nerves. Swelling, bruising, and pain are minimal. Some patients do not experience any side effects other than some swelling which subsides shortly after the surgery. Good luck.

Answer: There is very little discomfort after rhinoplasty - just congestion. If you use a surgeon who routinely places nasal packing, that can be painful. When there is no packing, there is little pain. Consider consulting with several reputable rhinoplasty specialists who offer computer imaging so you could see what to expect. Good luck! Dr Joseph
