Nose jobs can address many cosmetic concerns. They can even help you breathe more quickly if you have a deviated septum. And a good nose job doesn’t have to make you look like you had a nose job either.
At Desired Beauty in Bakersfield and the Beverly Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, board-certified cosmetic and general surgeon Dr. Farzin Kerendian explains the benefits of rhinoplasty and its secrets to a natural-looking nose job.
When to consider rhinoplasty
You can opt for any non-surgical ways to disguise elements of your nose with which you are not happy. Injectables and even contouring makeup can hide little bumps, but sometimes a surgical approach is the most effective.
A nose job may benefit you if:
- Your nose is not symmetrical
- Your nose has bumps
- You’d like more natural-looking nostrils
- Your nose seems too big for your face
- You have a deviated septum
Regardless of what imperfections you see on your nose, it’s also imperative that you are generally healthy, a non-smoker, and committed to the recovery process before rhinoplasty is performed.
Maintain realistic expectations
Once you’ve been cleared for surgery, you probably have one burning question: “Will my nose job look natural?” Setting realistic expectations is one of the most significant factors in receiving natural results. A rhinoplasty — any cosmetic surgery, for that matter — can only do so much. This means that if you have unrealistic expectations, you’re more likely to be unsatisfied. A nose job won’t give you a completely new nose, but it will enhance your nose, address imperfections, and create a nose that is proportionate to your face. A proportionate nose is one of the best indicators of a natural-looking nose.
This is why consultations are so important. During your consultation with Dr. Kerendian, you’ll discuss all of your goals.
Prioritize your recovery
In addition to setting realistic goals, it’s essential to follow all of your post-op instructions. These may include:
- Resting and avoiding strenuous activity
- Wearing a split as directed
- Being careful when brushing teeth or changing clothes
- Avoiding wearing glasses
Staying committed to your recovery means that not only will your recovery go smoother, but it’s also less likely that you’ll injure your nose.
