Rhinoplasty Surgery in Oklahoma City with H/K/B Cosmetic Surgery
RHINOPLASTY SURGERY IS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE THE APPEARANCE OF THE NOSE AND IMPROVE BREATHING
Rhinoplasty is a highly popular procedure at H/K/B Cosmetic Surgery in the Oklahoma City and Edmond areas, celebrated for its high patient satisfaction rates. The surgery incorporates techniques like cartilage removal, adjusting nasal bones, and refining the nasal tip, all aimed at helping patients achieve a look that boosts their confidence.
Rhinoplasty is primarily performed to enhance the nose’s aesthetic and occasionally to better respiratory function. It aims to harmonize the overall facial features or adjust specific regions of the nose that are either too large or misshapen. The procedure generally involves two approaches: closed and open rhinoplasty. However, the open method is more frequently employed as it offers the surgeon greater flexibility to ensure outstanding results.

What Happens During Rhinoplasty Surgery in OKC?
In closed rhinoplasty, the incisions are concealed within the nostrils, making them invisible externally. This method is ideal for targeting the nasal bridge or dorsum and can also be effective for correcting a deviated septum.
Open rhinoplasty provides comprehensive exposure of the nasal cartilage and bones, from the upper part of the nose to the tip, ensuring precise adjustments. This technique allows for detailed corrections ranging from reducing a prominent dorsal hump to addressing nostrils that are too large or flared.
The incision for open rhinoplasty is placed across the columella, the strip of skin separating the nostrils, and extends into the nasal creases. Typically, this scar is hardly noticeable within six to twelve weeks. Postoperative swelling is common and can last up to six months, but the new contour of the nose is typically visible once the splint is removed about five days after surgery. Temporary numbness at the nose tip is common but usually resolves within a few weeks.
