Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is an incredibly versatile and meticulous procedure where even subtle enhancements to the nasal structure often make a powerful difference. Whether you have a dominating or crooked nose, or would simply like to improve the angle of the nasal tip, Dr. Gryskiewicz can achieve many different goals, including:

• Reducing the size or width of a large/disproportionate nose
• Straightening a bump or hump in the nasal bridge
• Correcting an overly arched or “Roman” nose
• Addressing a bulbous, pointed, or upturned look on the tip of the nose
• Making the nostrils more proportional
• Repairing any birth defects or deformities
• Resolving a deviated septum
• Improving the results of a previous rhinoplasty

Preservation rhinoplasty is a modern surgical approach that reshapes the nose while maintaining the integrity of its natural structures. Unlike traditional techniques that involve removing the nasal hump from the surface and often disrupting cartilage and bone, preservation nose surgery focuses on subtly modifying the internal framework to achieve a smoother nasal profile. This is typically done by lowering the bridge from underneath rather than removing it entirely, allowing the overlying soft tissues and ligaments to remain intact. The nasal tip is refined with minimal alteration to its support system, preserving both form and function. This technique results in a more natural-looking outcome, faster recovery, and greater long-term stability.

Rhinoplasty can be an excellent procedure to provide greater balance in your facial features, but this surgery may not be the best option for your individual goals. In some cases, chin augmentation can provide better results in enhancing your facial proportions when compared to rhinoplasty. Since a recessed chin tends to highlight a disproportionately large nose, strengthening the profile of the chin can help enhance the appearance of the nose. With chin augmentation, a custom-made chin implant can be placed to enhance projection in your lower face and improve a weak or recessed chin. An adjunctive effect of a chin implant includes the ability to offset a large or dominant nose.

If you’re unsure whether rhinoplasty or a chin implant is the best procedure to give you the facial harmony you desire, Dr. Gryskiewicz can examine your concerns and recommend an effective treatment plan to achieve your goals. In some situations, the best course of action may be to combine rhinoplasty with chin augmentation.
