If you&#8217;re unhappy with the appearance of your nose, you may be wondering if this procedure is right for you. In order to determine the type of surgery best suited for your situation and to understand what kind of outcome you can expect, you&#8217;ll want to consult a plastic surgeon. First, you&#8217;ll want to determine if you&#8217;d be a good candidate for a rhinoplasty. To do this, there are a number of factors you can consider.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Do you know exactly what you dislike about your nose?<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It is important to be able to identify exactly which features you do and do not like about your nose when discussing surgery. Is it crooked, or do you think it has an unattractive shape? Talk openly with your surgeon about what you dislike.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Is your facial growth complete?<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Cosmetic surgery is rarely recommended for children or teens, since their face is likely to continue changing as they grow. Most adults won&#8217;t see any dramatic facial changes due to growth.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Are you a smoker?<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Patients who smoke will be advised by their surgeon to quit the habit before the procedure. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facs.org\/education\/patient-education\/patient-resources\/prepare\/quit-smoking\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">According to the American College of Surgeons<\/a>, patients who quit smoking 4-6 weeks before an operation and do not start again for at least 4 weeks after surgery can decrease the rate of wound complications by 50%.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Do you have a positive outlook and realistic expectations?<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It&#8217;s important that patients have a generally positive outlook before surgery. They must also be realistic about the results they can expect. For example, a patient might want a nose that mimics a model or celebrity they&#8217;ve always admired, but that patient cannot expect that a rhinoplasty will make the rest of his or her face look like that model.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Are you physically healthy?<\/p>\n<p>Patients should be in good physical health when undergoing a rhinoplasty or any cosmetic surgery. This will help ensure the body responds well and the healing process goes smoothly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a nose job, is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures today.
