Augmentation Rhinoplasty in West Virginia

To improve the appearance of a flattened nose it is necessary to introduce some additional framework underneath the skin to raise and straighten the bridge-line. The operation is called Augmentation Rhinoplasty.

The nose is the central feature of the face, many people are self-conscious of shape which they may regard as too big, too small or have some other feature which they dislike. With Augmentation Rhinoplasty this issue can be taken care of.

The characteristics of the nose are inherited from parents and develop during adolescent years. They continue until the age of 16, when the nose stops growing. It is, therefore, unwise to operate before this age. If you are not satisfied with the shape of the nose, you can opt for Augmentation Rhinoplasty.

After the Augmentation Rhinoplasty operation, you will probably have dressings in your nostrils for a day or so which will prevent you from breathing through your nose. You will also have a firm splint over your nose for the first week or two.
