The Key to a Natural Looking Nose Job

People choose to have nose jobs for many reasons, but no matter what, you want to be happy with the results. It's crucial to pick an experienced plastic surgeon who talks you through the process and offers realistic expectations for your procedure.

Who needs a nose job?
A nose job isn't just something the rich and famous get to look better — it's also necessary for specific injuries and breathing issues that affect your nose. A rhinoplasty, or nose job, is a surgical procedure that reshapes the bone and cartilage in your nose for cosmetic or medical reasons.
You can get a nose job if you're unhappy with how your nose looks. Other reasons you may want to consider a nose job include:
- Repairing a broken nose
- Restoring blocked nasal passages
- Correcting a congenital nose problem
- Restoring normal breathing
Injuries, burns, diseases, and some medical treatments may affect the appearance and function of your nose. Many people choose to have a nose job for both medical and cosmetic reasons.
Achieving a natural nose job
Whether you're getting a nose job to fix a problem or you want to feel better about how your face and nose look, one thing is sure — you want a natural look and stunning results. It shouldn't be a decision you make overnight; you should take the time to research and discuss your concerns with Dr. Baron before you plan surgery.
When discussing your new nose, Dr. Baron considers many factors, including gender, ethnicity, preferences, and facial features. These are all essential in helping her give you the most natural look.
For the best rhinoplasty results, two major factors come into play: your facial dimensions and the relationship between your nose and other facial features.
Your facial dimensions are crucial for your new nose to be proportionate to the rest of your face. For instance, your nose should be in the middle third of your face lengthwise. Dr. Baron also looks at where your nose sits width-wise on your face to ensure it looks symmetrical and natural.
Another way to achieve a natural-looking nose is to compare the size of your nose to your other facial features. Dr. Baron looks at the angle of your nose bridge, the tip of your nose, and the angle between your lips and nose for guidelines to create a nose you can love.
We take plenty of pictures in your consultation and use technology to show you how your nose can look before your procedure. With Dr. Baron’s expertise and your willingness to follow post-op instructions, we can achieve a stunning and natural look after surgery.
What could affect my results?
By following our post-operative instructions closely, you can ensure your new nose looks its best. One simple bump of your nose too soon could skew your results and lead to another procedure.
We provide detailed instructions for the days and weeks following your procedure. Adhering to these instructions is crucial not only to keep your nose looking its best but also to avoid infection or other problems.
Some of the instructions we provide to keep your results pristine and natural include:
- Keep the internal and external splints in place
- Avoid intense physical activities
- Don't blow your nose at all
- Cough or sneeze with an open mouth
- Brush your teeth gently to avoid trauma
- Don't pull clothing over your head
- Eat a high-fiber diet to prevent constipation
- Don't wear sunglasses or glasses until you heal
We advise wearing sunscreen on your nose when outside to avoid permanent skin discoloration. It's essential to prevent facial expressions that move your nose too much, which could change how it heals and looks.
