How do I get started with male rhinoplasty?

Your first step is to schedule a discreet consultation with Dr. Westreich in the privacy and comfort of his NYC office. There he will examine your nose, record your medical history and prior surgeries, if any, go over any health concerns, and begin to formulate a road map for achieving your aesthetic goals. Before and after photographs of previous clients can help you to visualize the possibilities available to you. In addition, measured computer imaging can assist in giving you a more concrete idea of what to expect from your surgery. Most clients find that after the consultation process, they are fully prepared to move forward, having all their questions regarding the procedure, recovery, and financing answered in-depth.

Rhinoplasty technique

It’s also important to note that Dr. Westreich always respects nasal structure, which is important for long-term results and for avoiding revision rhinoplasty in the future. Male Rhinoplasty is different from female rhinoplasty in that certain nasal and facial proportions are different in men and women. Understanding and applying these principles allows for more natural-looking results, which can be tailored to your individual taste, regardless of gender.

How long is the recovery time from a male rhinoplasty?

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.

How do you choose the right nose shape for a male rhinoplasty?

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.

What will I need to do to prepare for surgery?

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.

How long will a male rhinoplasty take to complete?

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.

What are the benefits of a nose job for a man’s face?

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.

Types of Rhinoplasty

Open Rhinoplasty

This typically leaves a nearly invisible scar on the columella (the skin between the nostrils) and is commonly used as an approach for Rhinoplasty. The same surgery can be performed through both open and closed approaches. Due to his expertise in using the closed approach, the Open Rhinoplasty approach is used only for specific technical reasons in Dr. Westreich’s practice.

Closed Rhinoplasty

During a closed rhinoplasty procedure, the surgeon performs the surgery through the nostrils without visible incisions. Through the nostrils, the surgeon can modify the cartilage and bones, add grafts and sutures, and have a full view of the nasal anatomy. Dr. Westreich prefers using a Closed rhinoplasty approach for several reasons:

  • Patients often heal quicker compared to open rhinoplasty.
  • The tip-profile relationship is easier to establish and predict using a closed approach
  • The blood supply to the nasal skin is preserved using the closed approach, which can result in less scarring and thinning of the skin over time.

Non-surgical Rhinoplasty

Results obtained from non-surgical rhinoplasty last between six months and two years. The procedure requires only topical anesthesia and 15-30 minutes to complete. Patients with prior nasal surgery should be aware of an increased risk of vascular blockage using non-surgical Rhinoplasty. Certain areas of the nose also carry a higher risk of complications with filler injection.
