MALE RHINOPLASTY

Male Rhinoplasty is conducted in a similar manner as that for women with the exception that male rhinoplasty patients are required to go for the procedure only when they have attained the age of twenty years as compared to minimum of seventeen years of age for women.

A successful male rhinoplasty requires the surgeon to take into account the overall facial features of the male patient ensuring that the nose is in balance with the rest of the face.

For achieving balance male rhinoplasty patient might require recommendation for combining rhinoplasty with other cosmetic procedures such as chin implants or face lift for bringing about a well balanced facial change.

Male rhinoplasty surgery costs around $5,000 and even though it might seem expensive you can get it financed. Financing could be managed from finance companies, home loan or surgeon's office.

While going for male rhinoplasty ensure that you deal with a surgeon having affiliation with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons which ensures that you get quality treatment. Also ensure that your potential surgeon offers you before and after pictures of the nose jobs undertaken so that it gives you a fair amount of idea regarding their overall experience with rhinoplasty.

Men go for male rhinoplasty for one of several reasons such as trauma, breathing problems or the desire for their nose to look even better. At times male rhinoplasty might change the look of your nose completely but in certain cases the amount of change possible for the nose could be limited.

Only when the surgeon is satisfied that the patient is fit for surgery he or she will schedule rhinoplasty to be performed at an outpatient facility. Depending on the amount of surgical work required male rhinplasty surgery lasts anywhere between one to three hours under general or local anesthesia.
