Cosmetic Rhinoplasty for Men on the Rise

Nose reshaping surgery or rhinoplasty is one of the top surgical procedures requested by men. While many people reserve cosmetic surgery for women, the number of men who undergo surgery has been steadily rising throughout the years with over 200,000 male plastic surgery patients in 2010.

While rhinoplasty is performed in a similar manner for both men and women, the aesthetic results men seek with rhinoplasty surgery are much different than that of female patients. Dr. Fernando Burstein understands the importance of masculine rhinoplasty surgery results for which male patients are searching: a strong-looking nose with a higher bridge and a shape that fits the proportions of a man’s face.

Because the nose is both a functional and aesthetic facial feature, it is important to select a board certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon like Dr. Burstein who specializes in facial plastic surgery. Dr. Burstein’s acute knowledge of the contours of the face allows him to create personalized results that are tailored to each patient’s individualized look. Regardless if the patient is male or female, the key to natural-looking rhinoplasty results is a surgery that is personalized to your facial features and desired outcome.

During a rhinoplasty procedure, incisions are made along the inside of the nose or along the narrow strip of tissue between the nostrils (called the columella). From there, the internal structures within the nose and areas where the small bones of the nose join are reshaped to better suit a person’s facial features and aesthetic goals. For men, this could mean the evening-out of nostril size, a straightening of the nasal septum, or a reduction of the nasal tip to fit facial proportions.

Many male patients undergo rhinoplasty surgery to correct damage done in the past like a deviated septum caused by a broken nose or other trauma that happened in youth. Not only does trauma cause breathing problems, but it can also alter the appearance of the nose. Rhinoplasty can ameliorate both these issues, giving patients a more streamlined profile and better breathing ability.

Meet Our January Spotlight Patient

January 6th, 2012 | Posted by admin in Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery) | Spotlight Patients | Uncategorized - (0 Comments)

Originally from Greece, Amal now lives in Florida. She first met Dr. Burstein when she accompanied one of her three children to Atlanta for his rhinoplasty consultation. Amal and her son were referred to Dr. Burstein by a doctor in their hometown who knew Dr. Burstein very well and was even a student of his at Emory. Although Amal had considered having nose surgery for many years to correct breathing problems, she intended to only discuss her son’s prospective procedure.

An expert in the natural contours of the face, Dr. Burstein knew by seeing Amal’s nose that her breathing likely suffered. He asked her about it and took a look at it when she concurred that she indeed had trouble breathing through her nose. After talking with Dr. Burstein, Amal decided to undergo nasal reconstruction.

Dr. Burstein reconstructed Amal’s nose inside and out first to fix her breathing obstruction and functionality and then to restore her nose aesthetically. Amal said this procedure was the “best thing I’ve ever done.” She’s thrilled with her nose surgery results. She can breathe much better while she’s awake, and her daughter even brought it to her attention that she breathes better in her sleep as well—no more snoring!

Amal described Dr. Burstein and his staff as “amazing” and would go back to Dr. Burstein if she needed additional surgery. She says her life is back to normal now, and people don’t even notice that she’s had something done to her nose because of Dr. Burstein’s devotion to natural-looking plastic surgery results.

Amal highly recommends Dr. Burstein to other prospective patients and offers this advice: “Make sure to do your research.” She said that when it comes to something as serious as plastic surgery, it’s more than looks that count—what’s on the inside is just as important as what’s on the outside, so be sure to look for a reputable board certified plastic surgeon.
