Nose Reshaping in Oklahoma City, OK

Men today care about their appearance like they never have. Many men even turn to Sawan Surgical Aesthetics to help them reach their desired look. One way we help many men is with our nose reshaping procedure. This rhinoplasty procedure can help men that are unhappy with the shape of their nose to create a shape that they are happy with. In some cases, men seek nose reshaping for reasons other than cosmetic, including repairing a deviated nasal septum that can cause difficulty breathing. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Kamal Sawan knows how different men and women are and recognizes that rhinoplasty for men is much different than it is for women given how much thicker men's skin tends to be. Using cutting-edge technologies and artful techniques, Dr. Sawan is able to provide Oklahoma City, OK and surrounding area men an aesthetically pleasing nose while maintaining their masculinity.

If you are a male unhappy with the size or shape of your nose, you may be a good candidate for nose reshaping at Sawan Surgical Aesthetics. This procedure, dedicated just to helping men reach their aesthetic goals, allows you to address abnormalities in the shape and size of your nose while maintaining your masculine appearance. It's important before getting your nose reshaped that it is fully developed so this procedure should not be performed on young men under the age of 16 years old. While this surgery can do a lot for your facial appearance, you need to have realistic expectations. If you are in good health, you may qualify for nose reshaping at our Edmond, OK office.

Using general anesthesia in an outpatient setting, your rhinoplasty will last somewhere between 1 – 3 hours, depending on how complex it is. Dr. Sawan may choose one of two different rhinoplasty approaches, open or closed.

Open Rhinoplasty

If an open rhinoplasty is chosen, Dr. Sawan will make a small incision under the nasal tip between your nostrils. This is going to make it easier for him to see the cartilage and bone he is altering, giving him more control when creating specific shapes and adjustments. Therefore, this approach is typically used where there is more restructuring to be done. It's important to note, however, that an open rhinoplasty tends to take longer than a closed rhinoplasty. In the case you are getting a revision rhinoplasty, this is the approach that will be used.

Closed Rhinoplasty

Unlike an open rhinoplasty, incisions are made inside the nostrils for a closed rhinoplasty. Typically, this approach is used when only minor adjustments are needed. This approach leaves no visible scarring but may not be appropriate if you are looking to have more extensive work done.

As Dr. Sawan completes your rhinoplasty, he will place your nose in a splint to help it heal properly. You will have some bruising, swelling, and nasal congestion, but this is perfectly normal and should go away within two weeks. Avoiding strenuous activity, swimming, wearing glasses that are heavy, and other activities that could put stress on your nose should be avoided until Dr. Sawan tells you it's safe to resume those activities. You should be good to return back to work or school 1 – 2 weeks following your nose reshaping, and you will likely start seeing your results after about 10 – 14 days once the swelling starts to go down. The results of your rhinoplasty will be permanent so you can enjoy your new look for a lifetime.
