What is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty focuses exclusively on reshaping the external appearance of your nose while preserving the sensitive internal structures needed for breathing.
A rhinoplasty can be performed to:
- To improve the appearance of the nose
- To improve breathing
- For aesthetic reasons
- To correct the results of a birth defect or injury
Dr. Granzow will develop a custom treatment plan that changes the shape of the bridge and adjusts the delicate tip structures of your nose to align proportionally with other facial features.
Dr. Granzow is meticulous in his approach to nose jobs and has completed residencies and is Board Certified both by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and also the American Board of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery (ear, nose and throat surgery). These two specialties are most involved in the proper performance of rhinoplasties and septorhinoplasties.
The Best Candidates for Rhinoplasty
The best candidates for rhinoplasty are people who are looking for improvement, not perfection, in the way they look. It is helpful to have specific and realistic goals in mind for the improvement of the appearance and breathing, although it is not necessary to know every detail about how you would like your nose to change.
Dr. Granzow has significant experience in all types of rhinoplasties and will spend considerable time with you in consultation going over exactly what your goals are and how they might be accomplished. He will specifically review the goals with you and also go over the fine points of your specific situation and your specific procedure with you so that together with you he can achieve the best appearing and most natural result possible.
