How accurate is digital imagery when considering Rhinoplasty? Also, is digital imagery available in the UK, or is it rather rare to find a clinic offering this service? Thank you.
Answer: Computer Imaging for Rhinoplasty Imaging can be educational in communicating possible rhinoplasty results. I found it most helpful when discussing profile changes including nasal size reductions, removal of a bump or changes in tip rotation. In addition, it is a wonderful tool to demonstrate benefits of chin enhancement and liposuction under the chin.

Answer: Rhinoplasty Imaging Computer imaging for rhinoplasty is a valuable tool for communication and for setting goals for surgery. But, it is only as accurate as the surgeon who performs it. It is very easy to make a computer image look good. The real challenge is being able to achieve that desired result with surgery.

Answer: Creative marketing! My son can make you the greatest nose you ever saw on a computer. Unfortunately, he knows nothing about doing surgery on real people! Look at the surgeons real work on patients, either photos or better yet real live patients. What you are buying is his proven skill over many years, not a computer drawing.

Answer: Imaging is merely a drawing, no more and no less. (But it's a good idea) As to the question of accuracy, remember that digital imaging is merely a drawing tool, not a simulation in the truest sense. I could, for example, morph a nose to look like Pinocchio, but that doesn't mean that it can actually be built in the operating room. So in that sense, imaging is only as "accurate" as the surgeon doing the morphing.

Answer: Computer or digital imaging is very helpful I have found that computer imaging is very helpful when discussing rhinoplasty. The images are not an exact representation of results, but usually pretty close. Imaging is an excellent discussion tool with patients. We can explore making certain parts of the nose higher or lower to come to a mutual agreement on what we are striving for. I have found that patients like the interaction and ability to share in the procedure planning.
