Rhinoplasty For Men
Conveniently located to serve Walnut Creek
The goal of rhinoplasty is to create a beautiful and natural-looking nose that is in harmony with the other facial features. Rhinoplasty is a group of operations performed to enhance the shape or size of the nose or to improve breathing. Minimally invasive rhinoplasty can reshape the cartilage in the nose, smooth any bumps or crooked nasal bones, and straighten the septum to create the desired size and shape. The operation may be performed for purely cosmetic reasons or as part of a reconstruction for birth deformities, following trauma, cancer, or other disease.

Rhinoplasty for men in our Walnut Creek, CA practice is often chosen for both cosmetic and functional reasons. Men may want to reshape their noses to achieve better facial harmony or correct structural issues like a deviated septum.

Rhinoplasty Procedure for Men
Men’s rhinoplasty is designed to enhance the male nose’s natural structure while keeping a masculine look. Dr. Ghorbani, a skilled Walnut Creek plastic surgeon, performs these surgeries while personalizing the approach to your specific needs. Whether reducing the bridge, refining the tip, or addressing breathing issues, the procedure is personalized for the best outcome.
Rhinoplasty Techniques
There are several surgical techniques used in nose surgery for men. Incisions can be made inside the nostrils (closed rhinoplasty) or along the columella (open rhinoplasty), depending on the complexity of the case. Dr. Ghorbani will choose the most appropriate method to ensure minimal scarring and optimal results for your male nose surgery.
Incisions are made inside the nostrils in most cases, though a small, external incision under the nose may be involved to aid in visualization. The skin is lifted off the nasal skeleton and cartilage. Dr. Nouri Ghorbani, one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s top plastic surgeons, can then sculpt the nasal shape and size before the skin is redraped on the new nasal framework. A light splint and tape are worn for five to seven days and then removed in our office along with any external sutures.
Dr. Ghorbani pioneered the rhinoplasty technique called the Double Arch Chonchal Cartilage Nasal Tip Graft, which is used to create a well-defined and sculpted nasal tip. He presented his new technique for nasal tip grafting using ear cartilage to the 50th annual meeting of the California Society of Plastic Surgeons in Santa Monica in May of 2000, and he currently teaches the technique to other plastic surgeons.
Rhinoplasty is not very painful, but the bruising and swelling can be marked and can take two to four weeks to settle. The procedure has a permanent effect on nasal shape and can improve your overall look. Patients having airway obstruction and deviated septum can have corrective surgery at the time of rhinoplasty. Insurance companies usually cover this part of the procedure.
Recovery After Male Rhinoplasty
Recovery from rhinoplasty for men typically involves some swelling and bruising, which can last for a few weeks. Following Dr. Ghorbani’s post-operative instructions is essential for a smooth recovery. Most patients can resume their regular activities within two weeks, though complete healing may take a few months.
