Dr. Phillip Chang is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who specializes in nasal surgery, also known as rhinoplasty. An experienced surgeon can modify and improve virtually any aspect of your nose. Nasal refinement (rhinoplasty) can reduce the overall size, improve the tip, remove a bump, widen or narrow the width, or even improve the angle between the nose and the upper lip. The revolutionary digital imaging software we include in our consultation will provide you with a method of predicting what you may potentially expect from nose refining surgery.
- Large noses can be made smaller
- Small noses can be made larger
- Button noses can be made more elegant
- Crooked noses can be made straight
- Nasal humps can be flattened
Generally, any or all of the above changes can be made during one operation, which, at our surgery center, and usually takes about two to three hours. Working from inside the nose, we carefully modify and reshape the nasal bones and cartilages. When an oversized nose is made smaller, the nostrils may also need to be reduced in size. Unbalanced, crooked, or curved noses can be straightened and made more symmetrical. After surgery, a small plastic splint is placed on the nose to maintain the new shape and to protect it. This splint usually remains on for five days. You'll be up and around a day or two after surgery, and any discomfort you might feel can easily be controlled by medication.
Dr. Phillip Chang and the Aesthetica Team are dedicated to providing the best quality and care for patients both during and after every procedure. We are here to answer any questions or concerns you may have and to ensure your procedure is a complete success.
