Rhinoplasty #50462

This is a primary rhinoplasty case performed on a 26-year-old female patient. The before photo was taken on the day of surgery, prior to the procedure. Two months post-op, the after photo shows a narrower nasal bridge and a more defined nasal tip when viewed from the front. The width across the middle third of the nose has visibly decreased, and the tip appears less broad than it did before surgery. From below there's a nice improvement in the nasal passage asymmetry. What is not apparent with these photographs is the severe nasal collapse with inhalation she had prior to surgery. Dr Leedy performed grafting to support the nasal sidewalls and her nasal collapse has been corrected which has significantly improved her breathing. Swelling at this stage is still resolving, so the final result will continue to settle over the coming months. If you have questions about this case or want to find out whether rhinoplasty is right for you, call the practice as speak with our friendly staff.
