Reasons to Have Rhinoplasty

What Are Some Good Reasons to Have Rhinoplasty?

There are numerous reasons why over 220,000 people undergo a rhinoplasty procedure every year. Whether you're not happy with the way your nose looks, or you are considering a nose job for medical purposes, here are some good reasons why you might want to undergo rhinoplasty.

Alleviate Breathing Problems
While rhinoplasties are more common for cosmetic reasons, a rhinoplasty isn't just for aesthetics. If you suffer with breathing problems, this could be down to a crooked nose or deviated septum. Rhinoplasty helps you to breathe easier by providing more airflow through the nostrils.

Dealing with Sinus Problems
For individuals who have a deviated septum, this can lead to sinus problems which can cause chronic sinusitis. Rhinoplasty can improve your nose's structure and support the droopy cartilage. If you have treated sinusitis in the past by drinking lots of fluids, taking painkillers, and resting, you could eradicate the problem altogether thanks to rhinoplasty.

Altering the Shape and Size of Your Nose
There are different concerns that individuals have about the way their nose looks. If you aren't happy with the shape or size of your nose, rhinoplasty may be the answer. When finding a clinic to carry out the procedure, you can discuss what nose shape and size you would like to achieve. Your surgeon should have the credentials to show you before and after pictures of former customers. This will give you a better idea of what to expect once surgery is completed.

Boost in Self Confidence
If you're not happy with the way your nose looks, this can have a huge impact on your confidence and self-esteem. While others may not take notice of your nose, you may feel huge bouts of anxiety and believe everyone is looking at you. This can affect you in your personal and professional endeavors. Rhinoplasty surgery can hugely boost your confidence and help you feel more comfortable in your own skin. To get the results you want, you must only stick with trusted, respected clinics to carry out the surgery.

Reduce Symptoms of Sleep Apnea
It's estimated that over 22 million Americans suffer with sleep apnea. This condition causes you to stop breathing while you sleep which can leave you waking up feeling unrefreshed and tired. Because rhinoplasty can help in clearing the nasal passage, this will relieve nasal congestion and reduce sleep apnea symptoms like snoring. While some patients get excellent results from rhinoplasty, others may not see noticeable changes. Therefore, it's advised to talk to your doctor beforehand who will advise you on whether you'll benefit from rhinoplasty for sleep apnea. You may find you're offered other alternatives to reduce the symptoms of sleep apnea.

Whatever your reason is behind undergoing rhinoplasty, make sure you find a qualified clinic to carry out the procedure. Once you find a reputable surgeon, they will guide you through the process and offer tips to speed up the recovery process. As long as you follow their guidance, surgery and recovery should run smoothly.

There are countless benefits patients can receive from rhinoplasty surgery, both cosmetically and medically.
