Rhinoplasty: Your Nose, Not Clones

Rhinoplasty: Your Nose, Not Clones

A controversial epidemic swept through Korea earlier this year when a group of aspiring Miss Korea 2013 contestants had faced claims that cosmetic procedures left all of them looking the same. Currently, South Korea boasts a booming plastic surgery industry with more young people turning to plastic surgery than any other country. Much of South Korea’s booming plastic surgery industry is fueled by an obsession to look more “westernized.” In the United States most surgeons feel that patients can turn to plastic surgery to achieve aesthetic results to make improved versions of themselves, NOT to look like someone else.

Rhinoplasty, offers men and women the ability to reshape their nose for a more balanced and natural appearance. Surgeons do their best to achieve the desired results for their patients, but they do not recommend nasal surgery to look like someone else. That person’s nose is suitable for their facial contours, it does not mean that a flattering nose will look good on everyone else. There is no one size fits all procedure, a patient’s goals will be established during consultation and the surgeon will predetermine results.

Why Men and Women Seek Rhinoplasty in Los Angeles:

Most patients that seek out Rhinoplasty in Los Angeles want a nose that matches the rest of their facial proportions. They want to correct a large dorsal hump on the bridge of the nose or shrink down a bulbous nasal tip. State of the art technology aims to give the surgeon assistance needed to achieve the best results possible, while maintaining the natural look of the patients facial features.

Other patients go through surgery to restore breathing function when they are limited to certain breathing levels because of a deviated septum. Patients turn to nose surgery for reasons including the following:

  • Unhappy with size and shape
  • Feeling of a crooked or disproportionate nose
  • Correct upturned nose or drooping tip
  • Repair unusually large or small nostrils
  • Injured nasal structure did not heal properly
  • Appearance of the nose reduces confidence
  • Wish to combine rhinoplasty with other facial enhancements

According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, rhinoplasty is one of the most frequently performed procedures that has a greater impact on a patient’s appearance. The nose is the most defining characteristic of the face and even a simple alteration can achieve great improvements for a person’s appearance.

Striving for a Natural Look

Even the greatest plastic surgeons tell their patients that perfection cannot be achieved and their goal is not to make the nose appear like someone else. The goal is to achieve the patients desired results while maintaining the natural contours of the face, this creating facial harmony that makes the patient proud to show off THEIR features.

Surgical skills alone will not guarantee a successful outcome, patients with good tissue and complimentary healing responses will promote a successful procedure. With today’s advanced technology and Dr. Grigoryants vast training and experience a natural and beautiful nose that will compliment the facial proportion for a lifetime can be achieved through Rhinoplasty in Los Angeles.
