Aesthetic Rhinoplasty Surgery

What is Aesthetic Rhinoplasty?

The nose is the most prominent feature of the face and can easily detract from your other facial features if it is not in harmony. Cosmetic nose surgery, or aesthetic rhinoplasty, is designed to improve the nasal-facial proportions by altering the size and shape of your nose.

What Can an Aesthetic Rhinoplasty Do for me?

Coined a “nose job” by pop culture, a rhinoplasty can refine your overall facial appearance by:

Removing bumps or indentions in the nasal bridge
Restructure the nasal bridge to correct asymmetry (crooked appearance)
Refining the shape, position, or size of the nasal tip
Narrow the span of the nostrils
Reduce the overall size of the nose

How Is a Rhinoplasty Performed?

Nose reshaping surgery is done as an outpatient procedure that typically lasts three to four hours and is usually done under general anesthesia. Dr. Slenkovich uses both open and closed techniques depending on the goals of the surgery. During a closed rhinoplasty, all incisions are made inside the nose, while an open rhinoplasty includes an additional, discrete incision across the tissue between the nostrils (columella).

Why Choose Dr. Nick Slenkovich for Your Rhinoplasty?

Forget about the “one size fits all” approach. Denver plastic surgeon Dr. Slenkovich believes that each patient’s face, as well as the reason they are considering a rhinoplasty, is unique and requires a personalized approach to address their concerns and provide the best possible outcome. During your rhinoplasty consultation, Dr. Slenkovich will consider multiple aspects of your nose while examining it, including symmetry, rotation of the tip, skin thickness, projection from the face, balance, size ratio, and breathing function. These aspects are taken into account with your unique goals to customize the procedure to ensure your new nose has a natural, un-operated appearance while achieving facial harmony.

As a board-certified plastic surgeon and otolaryngologist (ear, nose, and throat surgeon), Dr. Slenkovich has the ability to balance aesthetics with nasal function to create an overall attractive appearance while maintaining or improving breathing. This experience is also the reason many patients come to Dr. Slenkovich to correct the results of a previous rhinoplasty with a revision rhinoplasty procedure.

As a result of his personalized approach and experience, cosmetic nose surgery is one of the most common cosmetic surgery procedures performed by Dr. Slenkovich.

Patient Testimonial

I had three consultations for a rhinoplasty in Denver. Dr. Slenkovich took more time with me than any of the other doctors, explained every step of the procedure, why certain things needed to be done, what to expect, what his recommendations were, etc.Dr. Slenkovich was the most thorough and professional of all three. He took the time to look carefully at my pictures and my particular anatomical makeup and then gave me a quite realistic view of what to expect.

What Is Recovery Like?

Initial discomfort following your nose surgery is easily controlled with oral medication. A nasal splint is worn for the first week. Most patients feel comfortable returning to work and appearing in public after the splint is removed. Most of the remaining swelling and bruising subsides progressively over two to four weeks. The semifinal result of a nose reshaping procedure is evident in three months. The final result is evident in 6-to-12 months.
