Return To The Procedures

Nose Surgery
San Francisco Specialists

Intended Results:
Nose that is more proportionate with other facial features. Improved breathing.

Length of surgery:
It usually takes about 1-2 hours to perform nose surgery.

Anesthesia:
Nose surgery, more formally known as rhinoplasty, is usually performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. Local with sedation may be used in unique circumstances.

Recovery:
After the nose surgery, San Francisco patients usually note that it takes 2-4 weeks for bruising and swelling to completely fade. The final result should settle into place over 3 months or so

Side Effects and Risks:
After the nose surgery is performed, patients can expect some temporary discomfort, swelling, bruising, and tenderness. All surgical procedures carry a degree of risk. Potential nose surgery risks include infection, bleeding, reaction to anesthesia, asymmetry, excess swelling, healing problems, or burst blood vessels.

For Enhanced Results:
There are certainly benefits to having just nose surgery. San Francisco patients, though, often have it performed in conjunction with a blepharoplasty, chin augmentation, cheek or mid-face lift, or cheek implants.
