Rhinoplasty is a very delicate and precise procedure requiring patience and dexterity. The nose’s central location on the face can mean that the most miniscule alterations can have dramatic effects on a person’s overall appearance. Patients seek a rhinoplasty consultation when they have injured the nose, have trouble breathing, or when they are unhappy with its appearance.

Rhinoplasty is typically performed through one or both nostrils, using incisions made on the inside of the nose. There is usually no external scar. Dr. Mittelman will discuss specific information about incisions at the time of your rhinoplasty consultation. Just as there are many types of noses, there also exist many different rhinoplasty techniques. Rhinoplasty is an operation where just a few millimeters can make a significant difference in the appearance of the nose and your appearance as a whole. Dr. Mittelman tries to achieve a straight, strong profile that improves the symmetry and balance of the individual's face.
