What Can Rhinoplasty Correct?
Rhinoplasty is designed to address many imperfections that affect the appearance of the nose, including:

A crooked bridge can disrupt the balance of your facial features. A bump on the nasal bridge can affect your profile. Both of these issues can be corrected during rhinoplasty.
Issues with the Tip
The angle and shape of the tip of the nose have a greater impact on your looks than you may realize. Dr. Berbari can treat drooping nasal tips as well as upturned nasal tips.

Open Rhinoplasty and Closed Rhinoplasty: Two Approaches to Nasal Surgery
There are two methods of performing nose surgery: open rhinoplasty and closed rhinoplasty. Dr. Berbari will determine the ideal method for your needs during the consultation process:
Open Rhinoplasty
During an open rhinoplasty, an incision is made along the columella, which separates the nostrils, for greater access to the structures of the nose. Due to Dr. Berbari's advanced techniques, scarring fades significantly and is virtually unnoticeable after the healing period.
Closed Rhinoplasty
During a closed rhinoplasty, all of the incisions are made within the nostrils. This rhinoplasty technique will keep all surgical scars completely hidden from view. Whenever possible, this is the technique Dr. Berbari will use to give you the nasal refinements you want.

The rhinoplasty procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you will return home to heal following surgery. Below is a timeline for the surgical treatment process:
The Consultation
During the initial consultation with the surgeon, she will discuss your cosmetic goals and review your medical history. She will develop a treatment plan and answer all of your questions about surgery.
Anesthesia and Sedation
During the actual surgical procedure, local anesthetic is administered to eliminate pain around the nose and face. The patient will also be sedated in order to prevent anxiety and discomfort.
The Initial Incisions
Your plastic surgeon will carefully create incisions that provide access to the structures of the nose that you wish to alter.
Adjusting Nasal Structure
After creating the incisions, Dr. Berbari makes adjustments to the various structures of the nose. She will work carefully in order to ensure natural-looking rhinoplasty outcomes.
Sutures and Completion
Sutures are placed to aid healing. A splint is also used to help the nose maintain its new shape during recovery. Afterward, patients will be able to return home, assisted by a family member or a loved one.

For one to two weeks, patients should avoid strenuous physical activity and take time off from work. Patients can return to work and resume exercise as healing progresses and side effects become less apparent.
The nose is very tender after surgery. Even blowing your nose can affect final results. Do not touch your nose or the splint while recovering from surgery. Be mindful of your head position as you sleep.
