The Basics – Nose Surgery in West Palm Beach

Nose surgery, technically known as rhinoplasty in West Palm Beach, is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the nose. It can also correct functional defects (those you were born with) as well those caused by accidents or injuries. Rhinoplasty is appropriate for healthy adults of all ages, as well as teens, as long as their facial growth is complete and their expectations are realistic.

Dr. Reddy may also be combine the rhinoplasty procedure with functional nose surgery corrects certain breathing problems related to the internal structure of the nose  to correct a birth defect or injury, or help relieve some breathing problems related to a deviated septum (sepetoplasty). Because the nose surgery may be considered reconstructive in some cases, your medical insurance may cover a portion of the cost of the procedure.

Dr. Reddy can perform both primary rhinoplasty where west palm beach rhinoplasty patients have not had prior rhinoplasty surgery and revision rhinoplasty which rebuilds and reshapes deformities of the nose that have resulted from a previous rhinoplasty surgery. It may also be referred to as secondary or tertiary rhinoplasty. Revision rhinoplasty is a highly customized and individualized surgery. Depending on your objectives, Dr. Reddy can perform either surgical or nonsurgical rhinoplasty for west palm beach rhinoplasty patients.

Your Rhinoplasty Procedure - Your New Look

Dr. Kris Reddy will customize your nose surgery procedure to fit your objectives, lifestyle, and lifestage. The two most common rhinoplasty procedures are closed rhinoplasty which has the incisisons concealed inside the nostril, and open rhinoplasty which has a tiny tiny, inconspicuous incision across the skin between the nostrils (the columella).

Dr. Reddy performs rhinoplasty as an outpatient procedure at the West Palm Beach Plastic Surgery Center, Dr. Reddy's AAAASF nationally accredited operating center utilizing MD Anesthesiologists providing general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Most nose surgery procedures take about two to three hours to perform.

After making the initial incision to begin the rhinoplasty procedure, Dr. Reddy separates soft tissues of the nose from the underlying structures and reshapes the cartilage and bone. When straightening a nose or making it more narrow, he might need to change the position of certain bones. Alternatively, he can build up your nose using nasal cartilage, bone, or cartilage from another area of your body. After he completes the procedure, Dr. Reddy places a splint over your nose and occasionally uses an internal splint made of a soft plastic to maintain and support its new shape while healing.

The first couple of days after rhinoplasty surgery, you should restrict your activities and sleep with your head elevated to minimize swelling and reduce minor bleeding. You will usually be able to return to work in about a week to ten days after surgery, even though swelling and bruising may last for about two weeks. I will remove the splint, stitches, and packing within about seven days after surgery. You can usually resume most normal activities within three weeks.
