Achieving Natural Results with Rhinoplasty by Dr. Yalif

Every nose is different, and so is every patient, which means that Rhinoplasty, or Nose Surgery, must be tailored to the needs of each individual. Triple board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Asaf Yalif understands this concept and works closely with every Rhinoplasty patient he sees in Alpharetta or Atlanta, GA, to provide the best, most natural-looking results possible.

Rhinoplasty, also referred to as a “Nose Job,” is one of the most common plastic surgeries in the Atlanta area because it can dramatically enhance a person’s appearance. Women and men choose Rhinoplasty for several reasons, including improving a crooked nose, removing a hump or bump, reducing nasal width, narrowing the nasal tip or adjusting its projection, and altering the size of the nostrils.

Ideal Candidates For Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is among the most popular plastic surgery procedures performed in the U.S. The patients considering Rhinoplasty at Y Plastic Surgery include individuals with a range of concerns about the size or shape of their noses.

The ideal candidates for a nose job are those who want to transform their nose's appearance, have realistic expectations regarding the outcome, seek a long-lasting change, and desire a natural look.

Younger persons thinking about getting Rhinoplasty ask if they have to be a certain age to undergo the procedure. A patient’s nose should be fully developed, and that usually happens by age 16 for girls and at 17 or 18 for males.

About The Procedure

Understanding Rhinoplasty Surgery

For patients in Atlanta Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. The duration of the surgery typically ranges from two to four hours, depending on the specific technique used and the patient's individual requirements. There are two primary types of rhinoplasty procedures: open and closed.

Open Rhinoplasty

This technique, also known as external rhinoplasty, involves the plastic surgeon making a small incision on the underside of the nose between the nostrils. This approach provides enhanced access to the lower and middle portions of the nose, allowing for more intricate adjustments to the tissue, skin, and bone. Despite the incision, scarring is minimal. Open rhinoplasty is typically reserved for more complex nasal surgeries.

Closed Rhinoplasty

In contrast, closed rhinoplasty, or endonasal rhinoplasty, involves making incisions inside the nostrils. This technique is commonly employed for less complex procedures, such as refining the shape of a nose that is already relatively symmetrical. Since the incisions are hidden within the nostrils, there is no visible scarring associated with closed rhinoplasty.

Stunning Results

Anticipated Rhinoplasty Recovery & Results

After completing Rhinoplasty Atlanta plastic surgeon, Dr. Yalif, stabilizes the patient’s nose with splints made of a soft material. He removes the splints at a follow-up appointment scheduled for the day after the surgery. He also places external dressings on the nose that remain for another two days.

Even though most patients experience some discomfort during the initial recovery period, many are surprised by the low level of pain. Dr. Yalif does not routinely use nasal packing for rhinoplasty patients.

It’s important to avoid bleeding during the initial 48 hours after Rhinoplasty, so patients shouldn’t blow their noses, bend over, or lift anything heavy enough that would cause them to strain. Keep the head elevated, and don’t take medications such as aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin). Plan on taking a week off from work or school.

Bruising and swelling are common but typically subside after a couple of weeks. Residual swelling can last several months to a year, which is why the final results of the surgery will emerge gradually. The nose repositions and evolves during the first nine months to a year, after which you’ll see the final outcome of a beautifully shaped, positioned, and proportionate nose.

Enhancing Surgical Results

Whether it's a facelift, tummy tuck, or other cosmetic procedure, maximizing results is paramount. Dr. Yalif recognizes the value of adjunctive skincare regimens in supporting your body through the surgical journey. Our recommendations aim to prolong your results, refine scars, and achieve your desired aesthetic.

Skincare for Facial Rejuvenation

Prior to facial procedures, we advocate for a pre-operative retinoid, often from the Environ line. This multi-level system enhances the retinoid's effectiveness while minimizing common side effects. Post-operatively, our regimen focuses on maintaining youthful skin and supporting incision healing. Products such as Environ's Skin Essentia line and Vita-peptide C-quence serum 2, enriched with vitamins A, C, and E, ensure comprehensive care. Complete your routine with a nourishing moisturizer and SPF for optimal skin recovery.

Skincare for Brighter Eyes

For those undergoing eye procedures or seeking effective eye care, Dr. Y recommends the Environ Vita-peptide gel. This versatile product targets puffiness, fine lines, and crow's feet, amplifying results for periorbital procedures and standalone use.

Skincare for Body Transformation

Our commitment to comprehensive skincare extends to body contouring procedures. Alongside the aforementioned recommendations, postoperative care includes Derma-Lac lotion for exfoliation and moisturization, complemented by vitamin A, C, and E body oil to address various skin concerns. Our experts are dedicated to answering your questions and tailoring additional recommendations to meet your specific needs.
