I have breathing problems and snoring because I have kind of a flat nose and was told that rhinoplasty surgery can correct this. But I am afraid that if I have surgery it is going to make me look a lot different.

Answer: Computer imaging is a great way to communicate with your doctor I have found that using computer imaging for rhinoplasty patients is an excellent teaching tool and helps allay a lot of fears patients have about "looking different" after surgery. I would suggest finding a physician who offers this during the rhinoplasty consultation to make sure you both are on the same page before your surgery.

Answer: Rhinoplasty for Breathing Problems
Rhinoplasty will likely change the shape of your nose. The key to a successful outcome is your communication with your facial and nasal plastic surgeon. Make sure that your physician and his/her team performs a full internal and external nasal evaluation, and that all of your options and concerns are discussed in details prior to surgery.
