I Almost reached my savings for rhinoplasty. I'm most interested in the Piezo method I've seen Turkish doctors use. The before and after Pictures with this method are so beautiful. My septum is also bigger on one side. Im considering flying to Istanbul for this specific method of rhinoplasty, is it suitable for me? Any other suggestions for creating a more symmetrical face?
Answer: Rhinoplasty Hi @annaliz90! A rhinoplasty in my opinion is one of the most difficult procedures to perform. The skill, artistry, and technique of the surgeon will determine a good outcome. 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. Best of luck, Dr. Nima.

Answer: Rhinoplasty You seem to be good candidate for rhinoplasty. I am not sure that Piezo rhinoplasty has any advantages in your case? In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in rhinoplasty is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Rhinoplasty and chin filler Aloha and thanks for your question. It appears you would be a good candidate for Rhinoplasty to narrow and refine the shape of your lower nose/tip. It's not clear from the photos that much needs to be done to the upper bony portion. Your septum probably does not have much effect on your outside appearance. Fillers[like Radiesse] would be a temporary non-surgical option for your chin. I recommend extreme caution when considering overseas Plastic Surgery! While costs can be lower, complication rates are often significantly higher; and aftercare when you return home can be difficult. I would recommend you see an experienced Surgeon Certified by The American Board Of Plastic Surgery[ABPS] and a member of The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) for an in-office consult. Mahalo, Dr D

Answer: Rhinoplasty You are an e excelllent rhinoplasty candidate.and you can get a great result without the Piezo thing. I’m sure the surgeon in Turkey is excellent but you don’t need to fly half way around the world for your surgery. But it’s your decision. If you are convinced that the Turkish surgeon is for you and don’t mind traveling, I day sure, why not.
