Nasal reconstruction, more commonly known as rhinoplasty or a nose job, can dramatically improve appearance. Not only can this plastic surgery alter the size and shape of the nose to meet aesthetic goals, but it can also improve function.
Because it involves the delicate structure of the nose, the rhinoplasty procedure requires an experienced plastic surgeon with expertise in the anatomy of the nose, attention to detail, steady hands, and artistry.
Many of our high-profile patients prefer to be private with their cosmetic procedures and prefer that their photographs not be placed online. At your consultation, you will be shown photographs of patients who have given us permission to display their before and after pictures.

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that refines or alters the nose to enhance its appearance or improve proportions with the rest of the face. These surgical adjustments involve reshaping the bone, cartilage, and skin. A nose job can also include corrections to the structure of the nose to strengthen or improve the airway and allow better breathing.
Patients with one or more of the following conditions might benefit from rhinoplasty in Lowell:
People with deformities caused by an injury or problems with their nasal airways, such as internal valve collapse and septal deviation, may also find relief with rhinoplasty.
As a central feature of your face, even slight imperfections of the nose can cause self-consciousness. Eliminating these imperfections can make a dramatic difference, boosting self-confidence and bringing everything into a more natural, beautiful balance. Rhinoplasty can help with the following:
It would be best if you planned on taking at least a week off from work or other obligations after having nasal surgery. You may experience some discomfort, swelling, and pressure, which can be managed with ice and pain medications. Some bleeding from the nose is also common in the first few days after surgery.
It is essential to follow the guidelines and restrictions immediately following rhinoplasty, including avoiding lifting, bending at the waist, and activities that elevate heart or blood pressure for at least the first two weeks.
Bruising around the eyes generally resolves in 2-3 weeks. However, it can take a couple of months for most of the swelling to subside and 12 to 18 months for it to completely go away.
Results from rhinoplasty will be noticeable immediately after surgery but can be hard to see before the splints come off. Once they do, you should see the improved nose shape even with the swelling. Results will only continue to get even better as the swelling resolves.
The structural results of rhinoplasty will last a lifetime. Still, this procedure cannot stave off the effects aging, and exposure to the sun and environment can have on the skin over time.
