What is Ethnic Rhinoplasty?
Ethnic rhinoplasty is a type of plastic surgery that can change the way your nose looks while also helping to maintain your ethnic identity. Our office understands that you might feel a little uncomfortable with the way you look, yet not desire a drastic change. We can walk you through what happens before, during and after the procedure, and you can even talk with Dr. Papel about your questions and concerns as well.
Benefits of Ethnic Rhinoplasty
Do you suffer from poor self-esteem and constantly find yourself worrying about how others think and feel about you? Dr. Papel understands that each individual, from various cultural backgrounds, has his or her own aspirations from rhinoplasty. Not only can ethnic rhinoplasty improve your self-esteem, but the procedure may also help you breathe easier. When your nostrils are too small or too large, you may find that you have a difficult time breathing through your nose.
How is Ethnic Rhinoplasty Performed?
The way the doctor performs ethnic rhinoplasty depends on the reason for the procedure. After meeting with you to discuss your needs, we can schedule an appointment for your surgery. You’ll receive a medication that lets you sleep during the procedure. The doctor will use a marker to identify incision areas, and then remove excess skin and cartilage from around your nose with surgical tools. We’ll help you relax in one of our recovery rooms before sending you home with instructions on how to care for your nose and any necessary prescriptions to eliminate infection or reduce discomfort.
