OPEN RHINOPLASTY NORTH CHARLESTON, SC | NATIONAL FACIAL PLASTIC &
LASER SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING OPEN RHINOPLASTY

Open rhinoplasty is an intricate surgical technique designed to
enhance the appearance and function of the nose. This comprehensive
procedure allows facial plastic surgeons to make precise and
substantial improvements to nasal structure and aesthetics.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE OVERVIEW

During an open rhinoplasty, Dr. Joseph Russell creates a small
incision across the columella, the tissue between the nostrils. This
approach provides direct access to the nasal framework, enabling
meticulous adjustments to bone and cartilage.

KEY ADVANTAGES OF OPEN RHINOPLASTY

 	* Allows direct visualization of nasal structures
	* Enables more significant and precise nasal modifications
	* Facilitates advanced cartilage grafting techniques
	* Ideal for complex nasal reconstructions

PROCEDURE DETAILS FOR NORTH CHARLESTON PATIENTS

Open rhinoplasty is particularly beneficial for patients with
prominent, asymmetrical, or structurally complex noses. Dr. Russell
carefully assesses individual patient needs to determine the most
appropriate surgical approach.

SURGICAL APPROACH

The procedure involves lifting the nasal skin to access underlying
structures, allowing for precise reshaping and refinement. This method
is especially effective for addressing concerns such as bridge bumps,
tip asymmetry, and functional breathing issues.

RECOVERY EXPECTATIONS IN NORTH CHARLESTON

Patients can anticipate initial swelling and bruising, which typically
subsides within four weeks. Most individuals return to normal
activities after three to four weeks, with continued subtle
refinements occurring over the subsequent year.

RECOVERY MILESTONES

 	* First week: Nasal cast and limited activities
	* Two weeks: Significant reduction in swelling
	* Four weeks: Resume most normal activities
	* One year: Final nasal contour established

CANDIDATE CONSIDERATIONS

Ideal candidates for open rhinoplasty are individuals in good physical
health seeking aesthetic or functional nasal improvements. Patients
should have realistic expectations and be prepared for a comprehensive
surgical process.
