MAKING
THE DECISION FOR RHINOPLASTY
Dr. Smith will examine the internal
and external structures of your nose to evaluate your
needs and what you can expect from rhinoplasty. Dr.
Smith will also discuss factors that may influence
the outcome of the surgery, such as skin type, ethnic
background, age, degree of deformity and degree of
function of nasal structures. You can expect a thorough
explanation of the expectations, risks, benefits and
costs involved in surgery.
Following a mutual decision by you
and Dr. Smith to proceed with rhinoplasty, he will
take photographs of you and discuss the options available.
Dr. Smith will also explain how the nasal structures,
including bone and cartilage, can be sculpted to reshape
the nose and indicate how reshaping the chin, for example,
could enhance the desired results. After conducting
a thorough medical history, Dr. Smith will offer information
regarding anesthesia and the costs for the procedure.
