Rhinoplasty/Nose Aesthetics

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure which can change the size or shape of your nose. As well as cosmetic reasons, rhinoplasty may also be helpful for those who have physical irregularities that prevent them from breathing effectively. The following is a list of ways that rhinoplasty may benefit the individual:
It can reduce both the size or length of your nose
It can be used to reduce or remove a bridge or lump
It can be used to straighten your nose
It can be used to adjust the size and shape of your nostrils
It can be used to address asymmetry of the nose
It can be used to reshape the tip of your nose
It can also be used to alleviate or improve difficulties with breathing
At Ames we offer 3 different types of rhinoplasty surgery. You should contact one of our expert consultants to see which one is best for you and your needs.

1) REGULAR RHINOPLASTY

• OPEN RHINOPLASTY
Open rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure where a small incision is made between the nostrils, allowing the surgeon to have a clear view of the internal structures of the nose. This visibility is beneficial as it enables the surgeon to precisely reshape the nose according to your personal preferences. Additionally, the open approach allows for the use of structural elements to stabilize the nose, reducing the risk of long-term nasal collapse or weakening. However, it's important to note that the nasal tip may experience temporary numbness after the procedure. Open rhinoplasty is a commonly performed technique, which means that finding a qualified and experienced surgeon may be easier compared to closed rhinoplasty.

• CLOSED RHINOPLASTY
Closed rhinoplasty is a procedure where small incisions are made on the inside of the nostrils, resulting in minimal scarring that is mostly internal. This technique offers several advantages, including a shorter time in surgery and a less involved procedure compared to open rhinoplasty. One of the key benefits is that there are no external scars involved in the process, which can be a significant consideration for many individuals. Additionally, closed rhinoplasty generally has a shorter recovery time, although bruising may be similar to that of open rhinoplasty. It's important to note that not everyone is a good candidate for closed rhinoplasty, and the specific approach should be discussed with a qualified surgeon to determine the most suitable option for your individual needs.

2) SEPTORHINOPLASTY

Septorhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that addresses both cosmetic and functional concerns of the nose. It involves changing the shape, size, and contour of the nose, as well as correcting a deviated septum. This surgery is beneficial for individuals who experience breathing difficulties, as it helps to alleviate blockages and improve airflow. Additionally, septorhinoplasty aims to enhance the overall appearance of the nose, restoring facial harmony and balance.

3) REVISION RHINOPLASTY

Revision rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to correct and enhance the results of a previous nose surgery. It involves techniques such as reshaping the nostrils and improving the structure of the nose. The surgery can be done using either an open or closed technique, depending on the specific corrections needed. Cartilage grafts or implants may be used to improve the overall structure of the nose. The specific techniques used during revision rhinoplasty will be tailored to address the specific concerns and goals of each individual patient.

Rhinoplasty post-op care

• • After surgery you should rest in bed with your head elevated higher than your chest as this will help to reduce both bleeding and swelling.
• • Do not put ice packs or cold packs on your nose after surgery.
• • It is normal for your nose to be congested and swollen after surgery and sometime thereafter.
• • Slight bleeding and drainage of blood and mucus is quite common for a couple of days after the procedure. Your surgeon may adhere some gauze to the underside of your nose and direct you to change it at regular intervals. When you reapply the gauze to the area make sure that you do so lightly.
• • The splint and dressings that the surgeon has placed in and on your nose are removed 7 days after the operation.
• • You will experience some swelling and blackening around your eyes for 2-3 weeks after surgery.
• • The swelling of the nose takes a lot longer and in most cases it will be up to a year before all swelling has disappeared revealing the final result
• • Reducing sodium in your diet will help any swelling to go away faster.
• • For 4-6 weeks after the operation avoid strenusous activities such as sport.
• • While the bandages are still in place you should avoid having a shower; instead try taking a bath.
• • Do not blow your nose.
• • Eat food which is high in fiber such as fruit and veg so that you do not get constipated.
• • Avoid making facial expressions such as smiling and laughing.
• • Brush your teeth slowly and careful so that you limit the movement of your upper lip.
• • Wear clothes that fasten from the front and avoid clothes that require you to put them over your head
• • Do not rest glasses or sunglasses on the bridge of your nose for at least a month after surgery.
• • Avoid direct sunlight and if you can’t, make sure you wear suncream as it may cause discolouration to your nose’s skin.

Book a free consultation with one of our expert advisors at Ames today, in order to assess your BMI so that we make sure that the procedure is appropriate for you. As there are medical and physical limitations as to how much fat can be safely removed and transfered, the procedure may not be suitable for those who are overweight.

Patients who had Rhinoplasty done with us also had some of the following done too. Contact one of our experienced patient coordinators to see what procedures would be best suited to you.

Liposuction

As we age, lose weight or after we give birth, we may find certain pockets of fat are harder to remove than others through exercise and diet alone. Liposuction can help remove this fat by extracting it with a very strong vacuum. Outside of traditional liposuction, we also provide vaser liposuction which uses ultrasonic waves first to breakdown fat cells before extracting them. This often leads to less damage being done to the remaining tissue and thus enabling a quicker recovery time. Liposuction is a procedure which can be performed on all body parts.

Tummy tuck (Abdominoplasty)

Some of us are left with an excess of skin around our tummy area after losing a lot of weight or giving birth. As this skin cannot be lost through exercise or diet alone, a ‘tummy tuck’ can be used to surgically remove the excess skin to give your tummy a thinner more defined look. It is important to remember that a tummy tuck is not a weight loss procedure and may not be a suitable procedure for everyone.

Crowns (Dental)

Crowns, which are also sometimes called caps, are carefully fitted sleeves that sit over an existing tooth in order to protect it from further damage or to improve your smile. Often applied as part of a root canal treatment, they can also hold together teeth that are cracked and support bridges. Not only this, they can also be used to cover and improve the look of teeth that have become discolored.

Dental implants (Dental)

Unlike other tooth replacement procedures, implants actually help promote healthy bone growth as they are osteoconducive. Generally, it is a small surgical procedure, carried out under local anaesthetic, in which a titanium screw will be fitted into your jaw. Dental implants are usually used where patients have more than one missing tooth and using a bridge is no longer possible.

Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammaplasty)

Although there are many women looking to make their breasts larger, there are an equal number of women looking to have their breasts reduced as the extra weight can be a burden physically or they are just simply uncomfortable having such large breasts. During a breast reduction operation excess skin and breast tissue is removed and the remaining breast tissue is used to form the shape of the breast.

Breast Implants

Not all of us are endowed with large breasts and for some of us this can lead to low self esteem and confidence. Having an implant is one way you can increase the size of your breasts. At Ames, we use implants in a variety of cups manufactured by Motiva, Mentor as well as polytech.
