Ethnic Rhinoplasty
Some people are looking to have a rhinoplasty procedure done in order to improve their self confidence and feel better about themselves. Other people wish to have a nose job so that they appear younger and more polished in order to help them get further along in their career.
As the nose is the focal point on any person’s face, it is only natural for people to want to have a nose that they can be proud of. And when it comes to rhinoplasty procedures, the ethnic rhinoplasty is one of the most requested cosmetic surgeries in Long Beach.
Since he has been a board certified facial plastic surgeon for several decades, Dr. Kevin Sadati is very familiar with this particular procedure.
The overall goal is typically to reduce the size of a patient’s nose, and sometimes, a bump or hump on the nasal bridge is also removed. Sometimes it is referred to as a reduction rhinoplasty. But the important thing to note about this procedure is that the surgeon you choose should not see your ethnicity as an obstacle to overcome. Instead, choose a surgeon like Dr. Sadati who aims to improve the look of your nose while also highlighting the natural ethnic facial features that you have.
Dr. Sadati knows that it would not look natural to put a Hispanic nose on a Middle Eastern patient. He has extensively studied the important facial features of a variety of different ethnicities, so that he can create results that patients are not only happy about but also proud of. He sees ethnicity as an integral part of a person’s identity, and aims to work with it instead of against it. To find out more information about this procedure and Dr. Sadati’s method, set up a consultation.
Male Rhinoplasty
It can be tough for a man to recognize that he has a negative body image or low self esteem. This issues are not often considered a man’s issue and might not even realize that the reason he feels down in the dumps is because he’s unhappy with how he looks. The time is now for men to start realizing that they have options and that cosmetic surgery is not only an option for women. In fact, the male rhinoplasty has become one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures in the Long Beach area.
Dr. Kevin Sadati is one of the best choices in the area for this procedure. As a board certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Sadati has performed this procedure successfully on a multitude of patients for several decades.
He recognizes that there are key differences between male patients and female patients, and he knows what men are looking for in their plastic surgery results. He knows that while male patients are looking for a nose that is aesthetically pleasing, he recognizes that they do not necessarily want a small and delicate nose. He is able to provide patients the results they are looking for from a rhinoplasty without taking away a man’s masculine features.
It is important that patients note that all men must be 17 years old before having this surgery. This is because the male nose is not finished developing until a man is 17, and if the surgery is performed too early the results may not last very long. To find out if you are a good candidate for this procedure, set up a free consultation appointment. Dr. Sadati will evaluate your physical and mental health, and discuss with you the various options that are available.
Open Rhinoplasty
If you mention a rhinoplasty procedure in Long Beach, most people know that the procedure is referring to a nose job. What many people do not know is that there are several ways to complete this procedure, with one approach in particular often standing out as the best option. Whether a nose job is being done in order to make a nose look better, or it is being done in order to make a nose work better, an open rhinoplasty is often the best way to approach this cosmetic surgery.
As a board certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Sadati has been performing rhinoplasty procedures for several decades.
He specializes in this cosmetic surgery, and often uses the open approach when working with patients. Essentially, this technique requires the surgeon to take the nose apart and work on restructuring or reducing the cartilage and bone components. After the restructuring work is complete, the nose is then put back together in such a way that it not only will function better on a daily basis, but it also will look better. In order to complete the procedure, cartilage grafts are added to the nose to provide the necessary structural support.
This procedure can take anywhere from two to three hours, but this lengthy process ensures that the patient will get the results that they want and that those results will last for a long time. There is always the risk that a revision might be required, but Dr. Sadati takes pride in the fact that his personal revision rate is very low. To get more information on the open approach and to address any questions or concerns you might have, book a free consultation with Dr. Sadati today. There you can decide if this is the best choice for you.
Revision Rhinoplasty
There are a variety of reasons that a patient decides to have a rhinoplasty procedure. Whether they are having trouble sleeping at night due to a deviated septum, or they feel they have a nose that doesn’t match the rest of their face, people find that a rhinoplasty is a great answer to their frustrations.
However, most people think that once they have the surgery done their problems are over. Unfortunately, some patients find that they are still not satisfied. For Long Beach patients who are not happy with the results from their first rhinoplasty procedure, a revision rhinoplasty might be the answer they have been looking for.
Not all plastic surgeons are created equal, so it is important to find the right one to do your revision procedure.
Dr. Kevin Sadati is a board certified facial plastic surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty procedures and welcomes the challenge of just about any revision procedure. He knows the importance of evaluating each patient individually and coming up with a custom plan. He also knows how important it is to get the job done right, as the nose is the focal point of a person’s face and also has a big impact on a person’s body image.
Anyone who is interested in this procedure should contact Dr. Kevin Sadati’s office to set up a free consultation appointment. Patients who have had a previous rhinoplasty should be in good enough health to withstand another surgery, and should be able to identify exactly what issues they are having following their first surgery. Patients can expect the surgery to last anywhere from two to three hours, and depending on the case, general anesthesia or local anesthesia could be used. The recovery time for a revision procedure is about a week for the average patient.
Rhinoplasty Recovery
Sometimes, it can be frustrating for patients not to see immediate results following their rhinoplasty procedure, but in this case, patience and rest are often well worth it as the rhinoplasty recovery process is essential to the overall success of the surgery. Dr. Kevin Sadati works with Long Beach patients to ensure that they have medications to make them comfortable and reasonable restrictions to help ensure they get results that they love that will also last a long time.
Immediately following the surgery, there is significant swelling and bruising on the person’s face. This can be traumatic for a patient to see, but it is important for the patient to realize that the face has undergone a major change and transition in a short period of time.
Within 7-10 days, most of the bruising and swelling will subside and within three months it will be completely back to normal. To help patients manage their pain, Dr. Sadati prescribes a series of steroids, pain medications and antibiotics. Cold compresses can be used to help minimize and reduce the swelling on the face. Patients also need to know that a splint is placed on the nose and is removed a week after the surgery is complete.
The first 24 hours can be difficult for patients, and they are required to stay in bed during this time.
Slowly, patients can resume light activities around their house, but it is important that patients rest for at least a week. The average person returns to work a week after the surgery, but there are still restrictions that they must follow. For instance, exercise should be avoided for several weeks as should heavy lifting. Patients need to be extra careful and avoid activities where they could injure their nose, and all contact sports should be avoided for several months.
Teenage Rhinoplasty
The teenage years are a pivotal time in any young person’s life, and it is important that they look and feel their best. When a person feels frustrated with their nose, they can develop a complex that will stick with them for the rest of their lives.
The nose is one of the main features of the face and has a great impact on a person’s self esteem. Teenage rhinoplasty is becoming an increasingly popular procedure in Long Beach, largely because it not only helps teenagers to feel good about themselves, but it also is a surgery that they are able to endure easily.
Age Limits for this Procedure
Dr. Kevin Sadati encourages all patients who are interested in this procedure to set up a free consultation appointment. Teenagers should bring their parents to this consultation as important information about the surgery will be provided. For instance, Dr. Sadati explains why teenagers need to wait until their noses are fully mature before having any reconstructive surgery. If the surgery is done before the nose reaches its full adult size, the nose will keep growing and potentially ruin the results of the surgery. Boys should wait to have a rhinoplasty done until they are about 17 years old, and girls should not have this procedure done until they are between 15 and 16 years old.
Medical Benefits
In addition to helping teenagers improve their body image, this procedure has several medical benefits. Young people have elasticity in their skin, which makes it easier for the surgeon to work on restructuring the nasal features. This elasticity also means there is less pain associated with the procedure, and the patient will have an easier and shorter recovery period. These are all things to consider when thinking about having this procedure.
