Understanding Rhinoplasty: Enhancing Facial Harmony and Breathing

The nose is a critical component of facial balance and harmony, playing a crucial role in both aesthetic appearance and respiratory function. At Dr. Stephen R. Sullivan's practice, our specialized rhinoplasty procedures address both cosmetic concerns and functional nasal issues.

Types of Rhinoplasty Procedures

  • Closed Rhinoplasty: Incisions hidden inside the nose
  • Open Rhinoplasty: Strategic external and internal incisions
  • Functional Rhinoplasty: Correcting breathing difficulties
  • Ethnic Rhinoplasty: Preserving unique facial characteristics

Comprehensive Nasal Surgical Techniques

Dr. Sullivan specializes in precise surgical techniques that customize each procedure to the patient's unique facial structure and functional needs. Utilizing advanced craniofacial surgical training, he ensures natural-looking results that enhance both appearance and respiratory function.

Benefits of Rhinoplasty

  • Improved nasal symmetry
  • Enhanced facial proportion
  • Corrected breathing complications
  • Refined nasal contour
  • Increased self-confidence

Surgical Approach and Recovery

Most rhinoplasty procedures require 2-3 hours under general anesthesia. Patients typically return home the same day and can expect initial recovery within 1-2 weeks, with complete healing and final results developing over 12 months.

Candidacy for Rhinoplasty

Ideal candidates are generally healthy individuals aged 14 and older with realistic expectations. A comprehensive consultation will determine the most appropriate surgical approach for individual needs.

Insurance and Functional Considerations

While cosmetic rhinoplasty is typically not covered by insurance, procedures addressing functional breathing issues may qualify for partial insurance coverage. Dr. Sullivan's team can help navigate these considerations during your consultation.

Dr. Sullivan is fantastic! Wonderful manner, personable, answered all my questions, and explained what he was going to be doing. I had a keloid on my ear lobe excised--completely painless procedure. I felt totally at ease, confident that I was in the right hands. Add to that, the exceptional service and communication by the staff at Taylor & Sullivan. I can recommend Dr. Sullivan without any reservations. An exceptional experience!

Dr. Sullivan and Dr. Taylor are the ONLY plastic surgeons I will allow to touch my face. Dr. Sullivan is an amazing doctor with incredible talent, an amazing personality and a really great sense of humor. He explains things in great detail and lets you know everything will be fine and exactly what you can expect. He and Dr. Taylor work in tandem and the results are nothing short of mind blowing. If you’re considering getting cosmetic surgery, Taylor & Sullivan is the team you should check with first.

I have had nothing but the best experience with my surgery with Dr. Stephen R. Sullivan and his staff. He was kind, patient and extremely informative. I left my consultation appointment confident in moving forward with the surgery. I had considered this surgery for over 10 years and finally decided to look into it more. I researched locations and Doctor's all over Vermont, New Hampshire, New York and Massachusetts before finding Taylor Sullivan Plastic Surgery online. The surgery went smooth and so did the recovery. I am 15 days post surgery and feeling great! I had minimal discomfort for the first 3 days post surgery and have been discomfort-free ever since. I can honestly say I was never in "pain" and was pleasantly surprised as I have never had any type of surgery prior to this and did not know what to expect from my own body. I highly recommend Dr. Sullivan! I wish I had done this years ago! 3-year post surgery update: I am still feeling great and have had no complications or issues with my implants. The healing process was incredibly fast. I have the thinnest scars that are each approximately 2" long. The incision was so perfectly placed that it isn't noticeable unless I lift and look for them. I still highly recommend Dr. Sullivan and his staff!
