Rhinoplasty is an aesthetic surgical procedure that modifies the shape of the nose to improve its appearance and harmony with the rest of the face. The procedure can be used to correct birth defects, nasal deformities, nasal fractures, respiratory problems and aesthetic imperfections (nose tip).

Rhinoplasty can be performed using a variety of techniques, depending on the needs of each patient. The most common techniques are open rhinoplasty and closed rhinoplasty. Open rhinoplasty involves an incision on the outside of the nose to allow direct visualization of the nasal structures. Closed rhinoplasty involves incisions inside the nose to minimize scarring.

Rhinoplasty can also be performed using innovative techniques such as rhinoplasty preservation. This preserves the natural tissues of the nose for more natural, longer-lasting results.

 

CRITERIA FOR FINDING THE RIGHT SURGEON

 

To find the right plastic surgeon in Paris for your rhinoplasty procedure, it's important to take certain criteria into account. Here are some of the most important criteria:

  • Theexperience and qualifications The surgeon must be qualified and have significant experience in aesthetic nose surgery. You can check his qualifications and experience by consulting his website or by asking him directly.
  • The reputation The surgeon's reputation is also important. You can ask friends, your GP or patient associations for references to help you find a surgeon with a good reputation.
  • The results : The surgeon should be able to provide you with examples of previous results via Before/After rhinoplasty photos to give you an idea of what you can expect from the operation.
  • The communication The surgeon must listen to your needs and concerns. You should be able to ask all your questions and receive clear, precise answers.
  • The costs The cost of the operation is an important factor for many patients. However, it should not be the only factor considered. You should look for a surgeon who offers competitive prices without compromising quality of care.

 

PRE-OPERATIVE CONSULTATION

 

Before making a final decision on your surgeon, it's important to schedule a pre-operative consultation. This consultation is your opportunity to meet the surgeon in person and discuss your procedure in detail. Here's what you can expect at your pre-operative consultation:

  • Physical examination The surgeon will perform a physical examination of your nose to evaluate the most appropriate treatment options for you.
  • Discuss your expectations The surgeon will discuss your expectations of the operation. You'll be able to discuss the results you'd like to achieve and how the operation will proceed.
  • Explanation of risks The surgeon will explain the risks and possible complications of the operation.
  • Overview of treatment options The surgeon will present you with the various treatment options available for your particular case.
  • Discussion of treatment plan The surgeon will propose a treatment plan tailored to your needs and explain the various stages of the operation.
  • Explanation of the recovery process Your surgeon will explain the recovery process after surgery, including post-operative care of your nose.

It's important to note that the pre-operative consultation is a crucial step in helping you find the right surgeon for your rhinoplasty procedure. You need to feel comfortable with the surgeon and have confidence in his or her skills.

 

THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF RHINOPLASTY

 

There are various rhinoplasty techniques for correcting the shape of the nose, including rhinoplasty for men or for women. The most common techniques are :

  • The open rhinoplasty A surgical technique that involves an incision on the outside of the nose to allow direct visualization of the nasal structures. This technique is recommended for complex cases requiring significant correction.
  • The closed rhinoplasty A surgical technique involving incisions inside the nose to minimize scarring. This technique is recommended for less complex cases requiring minor correction.
  • The rhinoplasty preservation A technique that preserves the natural tissues of the nose for more natural, longer-lasting results.
  • The ultrasonic rhinoplasty an innovative technique that uses ultrasound to perform precise, less invasive modifications.
  • The medical rhinoplasty a non-surgical technique that uses hyaluronic acid injections to correct the shape of the nose.

The choice of technique will depend on the needs of each patient and the surgeon's preference.

 

SO HOW DO YOU RECOGNIZE THE BEST RHINOPLASTY SURGEON?

 

Finding the right surgeon for your rhinoplasty procedure is essential to ensure safe and satisfactory results. It's important to consider criteria such as the surgeon's experience, reputation and previous results. The pre-operative consultation is also a crucial step in discussing your expectations and the treatment options available.

Post-operative follow-up is essential to avoid complications and ensure rapid recovery. Last but not least, the price of your rhinoplasty will also be an important criterion, but should not be the only one.
By choosing a qualified and experienced surgeon, you can be sure that your rhinoplasty procedure will be a success, giving you a harmonious, natural nose that will improve your appearance and self-confidence.

Your Questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT RHINOPLASTY AND CHOICE OF SURGEON

HOW TO CHECK A RHINOPLASTY SURGEON'S SKILLS?

more less

To choose a reliable plastic surgeon, check that he or she is registered with the Ordre des Médecins with a specialty in plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery. You can also consult his or her rhinoplasty experience, techniques (open, closed, ultrasonic...) and before/after cases. An experienced professional will be able to accurately assess your expectations right from the first consultation.

SHOULD YOU CHOOSE A SURGEON WHO SPECIALIZES SOLELY IN RHINOPLASTY?

more less

A surgeon specializing in facial plastic surgery has invaluable expertise in harmonizing the nose with other features. Rhinoplasty requires a fine mastery of volumes, proportions and respiratory function: it's best entrusted to a practitioner experienced in facial procedures. Observe the regularity of these procedures in his or her practice, and the quality of the results obtained.

WHAT HAPPENS DURING THE FIRST RHINOPLASTY CONSULTATION?

more less

The initial consultation includes an examination of the nose and a discussion of your aesthetic expectations. The surgeon will explain the possible techniques (preservation, closed...), the post-operative course and the limits of the procedure. It's also an opportunity to ask any questions you may have about your morphology and breathing.

WHAT SIGNALS SHOULD YOU BE CONCERNED ABOUT BEFORE CHOOSING A SURGEON?

more less

A surgeon who avoids clear explanations, refuses to show concrete results or trivializes the risks should alert you: rhinoplasty is a subtle surgery that requires trust and dialogue. Visit feeling counts as much as technique. You need to feel listened to, understood and sincerely supported. Dr Djian attaches particular importance to this human relationship, We take the time to analyze each request, to explain the possible choices and to build a realistic project, adapted to your face.

CAN YOU TRUST A SURGEON ABROAD FOR RHINOPLASTY?

more less

No, rhinoplasty abroad often exposes you to a lack of follow-up, in variable operating standards and complications poorly managed on return. Rhinoplasty requires precise supervision before and after the operation, which is difficult to provide outside France. Choose a plastic surgeon in Paris or in France recognized by the Ordre des médecins.
