Let’s get one thing straight: all noses are beautiful—including yours.
But let’s get another thing straight: it’s okay to want to change the size and shape of your nose.
At McGuiness Dermatology & Plastic Surgery, you can receive a tailored nose job, also known as a rhinoplasty, that refines your features so you can achieve facial balance and harmony.
To learn more about why you should trust our team with your rhinoplasty near Frisco, read this article.
What is a Rhinoplasty?
A rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes your nose. It can address:
- Nasal hump
- Wide nostrils
- Nose shape
- Upturned nasal tip
- Deviated septum
This procedure involves making an incision inside of your nose (a closed technique) or at the nasal base (open technique). Through these incisions, your plastic surgeon reduces or removes bone and cartilage to reshape and resize your nose to your desired look.
The surgery can take anywhere between 1 to 3 hours. After closing the incision with sutures, you’re able to leave the office as long as you have someone to pick you up.
Our Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon
Dr. Derek Sheen is our exclusive fellowship-trained plastic surgeon at McGuiness. Under his care, we provide natural-looking results with a lower risk of complications compared to competing surgeons in the area.
Natural-Looking Results
Dr. Sheen sees the beauty in everyone and would never want you to look like anyone other than yourself. His thoughtful approach to rhinoplasty involves assessing your facial anatomy to give you results that still maintain your natural beauty, but with subtle improvements.
Functional Benefits
While a rhinoplasty is a cosmetic procedure, it boasts functional benefits as well. For patients with a deviated septum (when the bone and cartilage that divide the nasal cavities are off-center), breathing through their nose is more difficult. A rhinoplasty can correct and reshape the septum to restore and improve breathing function.
This surgery can also improve breathing if allergies, sinus issues, or narrow nasal airways are present. To address these concerns, we use the following methods:
- Inferior Turbinate Reduction: Removes excess tissue around the small bony structures inside your nose (turbinate bones) that become inflamed from allergies or infection.
- Nasal Valve Repair: Enlarges narrow nasal passages.
- Cartilage Grafts: Corrects a crooked nose or a low bridge and widens the nasal passages.
