Rhinoplasty has evolved and is technically more complex today despite its simple conceptual nature. The nose has three structural parts: the upper third are bones, the middle third are cartilages that affect both appearance and breathing, and the lower third are the tip cartilages. Changes are typically made to all three areas. This is shown in schematic representation here but the actual changes made are much more extensive than indicated. It takes a lot of time, effort, and finesse is to create a pleasing and elegant shape, with no margin for error! Rhinoplasty surgery is truly a labor of love.

Our patient is shown here only two weeks after surgery. There is mild residual swelling and bruising which is a typical look at this time interval. Besides eyelid surgery she had a SMAS/deep plane cheek lift and muscle tightening in the neck. There was no “deep neck” surgery or salivary gland removal necessary. Good skin quality and bone structure are always an asset, as was the case here. She is thrilled so far and so are we!
We appreciate our patient allowing us to share these images.

Welcome back to the Sam & Meg series! It’s easy to look like a genius on social media doing facelifts on 45 year olds. The true need in that age group is very rare indeed. Facelifts are a big commitment and are not done for preventive purposes. Don’t jump the gun and use them up prematurely. #faceliftsurgery #faceliftbeforeandafter #facialrejuvenation
Complex cases like this require a wealth of experience and an uncompromising mindset. The clock does not matter in these cases, regardless of how it may set the day back. Patients like this have one shot to get it right. #breastsurgery #plasticsurgery #repair
