Achieve Facial Balance with Expert Precision

Rhinoplasty: Sculpting Harmony & Refining Proportions

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as nasal reshaping surgery, enhances both aesthetics and functionality, creating a harmonious, balanced appearance while addressing any structural breathing concerns. As a highly individualized procedure, Dr. Gregory LaTrenta meticulously tailors each rhinoplasty to the patient’s unique facial features and goals, ensuring natural, elegant results.

A Subtle Yet Transformational Enhancement

What is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is a customizable surgical procedure that can:

  • Reshape the nose to better complement facial proportions
  • Reduce a nasal hump or smooth depressions on the bridge
  • Refine the nasal tip if it appears bulbous, drooping, or upturned
  • Adjust nostril size and width for better symmetry
  • Straighten a crooked or off-center nose
  • Improve breathing issues related to nasal structure

Rhinoplasty does not simply change the nose—it is about creating a balanced, elegant facial profile that enhances your natural beauty while preserving your unique identity.

The Procedure: A Refined Approach to Nasal Reshaping

Surgical Process & Techniques

  • Incisions & Approach – Most rhinoplasty incisions are hidden inside the nose (closed rhinoplasty), leaving no visible scars. In more complex cases, a small incision under the nose (open rhinoplasty) may be necessary for precise sculpting.
  • Bone & Cartilage Reshaping – The nasal bone and cartilage framework are carefully sculpted to refine the nose’s shape and proportion.
  • Skin Redraping – Once reshaped, the skin naturally conforms to the new nasal structure.
  • Subtle Refinements for Natural Beauty – Every adjustment is meticulously designed to complement the entire face, ensuring natural, long-lasting results.

Procedure Time:Approximately one hour under intravenous sedation for a comfortable, pain-free experience.

Who is the Best Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

You may be a good candidate for rhinoplasty if:

You are at least 13 years old and your facial growth is complete.

Your nose appears too large or wide for your face.

You have a nasal hump or visible depressions on the bridge.

Your nasal tip droops, is bulbous, or overly upturned.

Your nostrils are flared, wide, or asymmetrical.

Your nose is off-center, crooked, or has been altered by injury.

You have breathing difficulties caused by structural issues.

Recovery & Aftercare: A Smooth, Comfortable Healing Process

Dr. LaTrenta’s precise surgical technique ensures a smooth, rapid recovery with minimal discomfort.

  • First 48 Hours: Patients feel well enough to move around within two days.
  • Protective Splint: A small splint is worn for 3-5 days to support healing.
  • Return to Work/School: Most patients resume work or social activities within one week.
  • Swelling & Bruising: Some mild swelling persists for a few weeks, but final results will gradually refine over several months.
  • Long-Term Healing: While immediate improvements are visible, it can take up to a year for the final nasal contour to fully settle.
