Commonly called a nose job, the official name is rhinoplasty. It can change the appearance of your nose to make it fit more harmoniously with the rest of your features. If you are self-conscious about your nose, this cosmetic surgery might be right for you.
Many patients report a definite boost in self-confidence when they get a nose job, according to Dr. Roy David, San Diego cosmetic surgeon. A recent review of 16 studies following cosmetic surgery patients showed that people who have had this procedure reported higher self-esteem after the work was done.
What Can Rhinoplasty Accomplish?
Not clear about what it can do? Here is a look at the changes a skilled cosmetic surgeon can make in your nose:
- Make it more symmetrical
- Refine the tip
- Make changes in the angle of the nose
- Narrow the bridge
- Straighten curves, humps or dips
- Add structure and definition
- Modify the shape and size of nostrils
Though most people consider the surgery for aesthetic reasons, it also has a medical benefit. This procedure can make it easier for a person to breathe.
Are You a Good Candidate?
Dr. David says it is essential that he discuss the procedure with each patient before going ahead with the surgery. The patient’s physical condition is the first point to consider.
Surgery can only be done on someone over 15 and whose facial development is completed. In addition, the candidate must be good health and able to heal after surgery without problem.
The next essential is pinpointing what the patient is expecting to happen with surgery. Dr. David is very clear that everyone choosing rhinoplasty must go into the procedure with reasonable expectations about what can be achieved.
What Do You Want to Accomplish?
Dr. David places such stress on listening to the hopes and expectations of his patients. During the preliminary talk, he is very upfront about what can be accomplished with rhinoplasty cosmetic surgery. This in-depth discussion is one of the features that sets him apart as a cosmetic surgeon.
He encourages each patient to ask questions, bring in photos of what they want to achieve and go through the photo gallery on the website. It is essential that both the doctor and the patient are on the same page. That is the only way he can use his expertise and aesthetic skill to produce the outcome desired by the candidate for surgery.
Dr. David makes a thorough examination of the patient’s nose, including a physical examination, medical history and X-rays. He goes through the procedure and what you need to prepare for the surgery.

According to Dr. David, he has one goal with his cosmetic surgeries, to “make a positive impact on a person’s life.” Using a gift for precision, a natural aesthetic sense and skill earned with years of training, he works to give “a rhinoplasty patient the look they have always dreamed of.”
