Natural Look after Rhinoplasty (The Cosmetic Consultation.)
You can achieve many things with a Rhinoplasty (or any other cosmetic procedure, for that matter). Therefore, the most important thing you can do before a cosmetic consultation is to decide what you like and what you do not like and changes you would like to make. At the consultation, you can discuss this with your Plastic Surgeon and decide what YOU will have done. If the person you see does not discuss your desires and how to meet them, see someone else. (Robert T. Buchanan, MD, Highlands Plastic Surgeon)
That is why you need at least 3 in person evaluations with boarded surgeons in your area. Discuss your concerns in detail to your satisfaction. Called informed consent. Understand the answers so there are no post operative surprises. (Darryl J. Blinski, MD, Miami Plastic Surgeon)
Natural results are the goal of a great rhinoplasty
Your consultation will be as individual as you and your surgeon each are. Every doctor approaches the consultation in a customized manner and thus, you must look for the surgeon you believe will fit who you are and what you want. Natural results can be achieved. The best way to tell if you will be happy with your surgeon is to look at their before and after gallery. If you like what you see there, then you will most likely be satisfied with the aesthetic results that come with the surgical process.
There are no guarantees, but experience, reputation, and previous results go a long way toward stacking the cards in your favor. (Jay Calvert, MD, Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon)
A rhinoplasty should in general refine your nose but maintain your general ethnicity and your “look” to some extent. (Steven Wallach, MD, Manhattan Plastic Surgeon)
Rhinoplasty results
You really should look like you after surgery. The hallmark of a good rhinoplasty is that it improves your appearance but does not completely alter it. It is not uncommon for people who have drastic changes made to their nose to have a great deal of difficulty adjusting to it.
Speaking to an experienced surgeon will give you an idea of what can be done to meet your expectations. (Malik Kutty, MD, Sugar Land Plastic Surgeon)
Rhinoplasty and natural results.
The most important thing in the consultation is looking at the surgeon’s work – not what someone draws on a computer. Meet with a patient of his to see the REAL work he does since that is what you will end up with. (Toby Mayer, MD, Beverly Hills Facial Plastic Surgeon)
What to expect from a rhinoplasty consultation
The best way to see what a rhinoplasty will do for you is to have computer imaging at the time of the consultation. This will give you a very good idea what the results will look like. The you can make a better informed decision. (Oleh Slupchynskyj, MD, FACS, New York Facial Plastic Surgeon)
What To Expect From A Rhinoplasty Consultation and Can I Still Look Like ME After Surgery?
I think your gall is very similar to that of many patients, they do not want a drastic change. The most important thing is not the type of procedure, but finding the right surgeon who understands your goals.
The consultation including computer imaging is essential to make sure that your surgeon and you can visualize your goals. I recommend you consult with someone who specializes in rhinoplasty surgery. (Michel Siegel, MD, Houston Facial Plastic Surgeon)
Will I still look like me after rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty operations can be tailored to each individual to try to achieve their goals. You must be very clear about your desires during your consultation. A good rhinoplasty surgeon will be able to adapt the operation to help you maintain a natural appearance while correcting the aspects of your nose that are not pleasing to you. (Jeffrey E. Kyllo, MD, Seattle Plastic Surgeon)
Consultation information
it sounds like you understand the goals of your surgery and your preferences. It also appears that you have some type of functional airway problem that needs to be addressed by the surgeon at the time of consultation. Be sure that your surgeon is comfortable performing not only cosmetic surgery but improving your airway and breathing problem.
Of course, search for a board certified surgeon who would be able to help you in your area. The important thing is to communicate with your surgeon that you like to have a conservative rhinoplasty and not drastically change your appearance. (John E. Sherman, MD, New York Plastic Surgeon)
