The Cosmetic & Health Benefits of Rhinoplasty Surgery
Have you ever considered rhinoplasty surgery? Rhinoplasty, also known as “nose surgery” or a “nose job,” is a surgical procedure usually performed to improve the functionality or shape of the nose. There are numerous reasons people opt to have rhinoplasty surgery, including both cosmetic and health benefits. In 2016, the number of rhinoplasty surgeries performed was over 223,000, making it the third most common plastic surgery procedure in the United States. Before deciding whether rhinoplasty surgery is right for you, it’s important to familiarize yourself with the advantages. Here are just a few of the aesthetic and health benefits of rhinoplasty surgery.
IMPROVE BREATHING
The rhinoplasty procedure helps with anatomical problems that restrict your breathing such as obstructive sleep apnea. If you have a long-term or congenital breathing issue, a rhinoplasty can correct it and improve your symptoms.
BOOST CONFIDENCE
If you don’t like the appearance of your nose, rhinoplasty can help. This procedure can adjust the way your nose appears, boosting your self-esteem by bringing your nose into better harmony with the rest of your features. For patients who are teased or made fun of for their nose, rhinoplasty can be a life-changing procedure.
SOLVE SINUS ISSUES
Sinus issues include constant nasal congestion, headaches, and sinus pressure. If you have recurrent sinus issues that don’t go away with conventional treatments, then rhinoplasty can be an effective long-term solution.
REPAIR A BROKEN NOSE
Do you have uncomfortable symptoms or a crooked nose since breaking it? Whether because of injury or accident, having a deviated septum can negatively change its function and look. Rhinoplasty can correct both concerns without multiple surgical procedures.
STOP SNORING
Snoring is a problem that can be managed using over-the-counter medications, but if breathing issues are a chronic problem, rhinoplasty may be a better solution. It can help remove obstructions and improve breathing function so you and your loved ones can get quality sleep.
