Rhinoplasty Surgery in Miami

The results of a rhinoplasty are permanent. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle and protecting the nose from injury can help preserve the results.

As with any surgical procedure, there are risks, including bleeding, infection, scarring, and anesthesia complications. Our surgeons employ advanced techniques and meticulous planning to minimize these risks.

In an open rhinoplasty, a small scar may be visible on the columella, but it usually fades over time. In a closed rhinoplasty, scars are hidden inside the nose and are not visible.

Rhinoplasty can be combined with other facial procedures, such as chin augmentation or facelift, to achieve a more balanced and comprehensive rejuvenation.

Discomfort during the initial recovery period can be managed with prescribed pain medication. Most patients find the discomfort to be manageable and temporary.

A good candidate for rhinoplasty is in good health, has realistic expectations, and seeks to improve the appearance or function of their nose. Dr. Simmons or Dr. Flores will determine your suitability during the consultation.

Open rhinoplasty provides better visibility and precision for complex reshaping, while closed rhinoplasty offers a shorter recovery time with no visible scars. The choice depends on the specific needs and goals of the patient.

After rhinoplasty, you should avoid wearing glasses directly on your nose for several weeks to prevent pressure on the healing tissues. Dr. Simmons and Dr. Flores will provide guidance on alternative options.
