This is the common term for the Plastic Surgery procedure called Rhinoplasty. It has actually been done for centuries. Improvements in methods have been greatest in the last few decades.
Do you feel it... is too large, too small, has a "hump," has a big tip, or is out of balance with the rest of your face?
Has an accident changed its shape?
Do you have difficulty breathing?
Our patients will often speak about feeling much better about themselves after rhinoplasty. They have an improved self-image and more self-confidence when their nose harmonizes with their other facial features.
Each person considering nose surgery has different ideas of how change or improvement could be made to his/her nose, and the discussion between you and Dr. Bowman is a time to discuss what the best approach for you would be, and how you would benefit. There are many different ways to achieve change in a person's nose, and your individual needs will be considered. It is also important for you to be fully aware of what is involved in the surgery, and what to expect afterwards.
For a couple of weeks after nose surgery, you will have swelling and bruising and may want to be off work for the same period. You will be able to see the almost-final new shape within 6-8 weeks, but you'll have to wait 6-12 months to see the final results.
Cosmetic nose surgery is real surgery. Before you decide, it's important to learn about any possible complications, even though they are rare. These will be fully explained to you during your private consultation with Dr. Bowman. At that time, you will have an opportunity for a careful and complete discussion of your options and what is involved. You will benefit from asking all your questions and browsing through our photographs.
BEFORE & AFTER PHOTOS
We have before and after photos in our office, and you'd benefit from coming to have a look at them, ahead of your consultation, if you wish. In the interests of confidentiality and privacy we don't publish them on the internet. The photos in the laser sections are provided by the manufacturer, and are not our patients.
If you'd benefit from our services, please give us a call at 604 734-1416 and we'll be happy to answer some preliminary questions, or arrange an appointment for you.
