Male Rhinoplasty NYC

Men may heal slower than women due to thicker skin. When present, Dr. Westreich will alert you to any concerns regarding extended healing time during your initial consultation.

Every person has a unique facial structure. Enhancing your other features requires a careful evaluation in order to determine the shape that will create the most positive improvement. Your male rhinoplasty procedure is a customized surgery planned strictly for you. We offer our patients the ability to “try on” various nose changes to get an idea of what they will look like with our digital system. Even very small changes can make a remarkable difference in facial appearance, which is why we plan these surgeries with such care and attention to detail.

Every patient, male or female, has certain responsibilities in preparing for surgery. These include discontinuing various medications or supplements that thin the blood. If you smoke, you need to quit for several weeks prior to surgery. You will need to get the area in which you will spend your time recovering ready by preparing all you need (books, remote controls, water, lip balm, blankets, pillows or wedge to keep the head elevated, ice packs, easy-to-consume foods, and other items) to be at close hand. You will need to arrange for a friend or family member to drive you home and to stay with you the first night.

The procedure is performed at our state-of-the-art surgical center under local or general anesthesia, depending on your unique needs, and concludes within 2 to 3 hours.

The benefits of a well-performed rhinoplasty go beyond improving your appearance. While this is the most important issue and why you chose to undergo the procedure, you may not realize that many patients experience a remarkable increase in self-confidence, which can impact every area of life, from business to social interactions. A rhinoplasty can provide improved facial balance and allow increased attention to other facial areas, which are often more important in determining attractiveness.
