Becker Rhinoplasty & Facial Plastics specializes in primary rhinoplasty, revisionary rhinoplasty, and other surgical procedures to reshape the nose. These include reducing the nasal hump by removing cartilage and bone, smoothing the bony hump through a process known as rasping, and using osteotomies to cut or break the nasal bones in order to improve a twisted, narrow, or overly wide nose. Spreader grafts – rectangular strips of cartilage – may be used to widen the middle third of the nose, and special suture techniques are employed to refine or elevate the nasal tip.
Rhinoplasty is a plastic surgery that reshapes or reconstructs the nose. This procedure can be elected for cosmetic enhancement or functional restoration.
Revision surgery is different from primary rhinoplasty. Revision surgery requires specialized training and expertise. It is important to find a surgeon who specializes in revision rhinoplasty.
Surgical Techniques
Techniques in surgery can be seen as tools to help achieve a specific task. These tools on their own are not necessarily enough, but rather the right combination of strokes or tools must be achieved in a particular situation.
