What Are Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty?
Rhinoplasty and septoplasty are surgical procedures offered by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ross Bunch at Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa. Rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a "nose job," is a cosmetic surgery designed to reshape the nose, improving its appearance and harmony with other facial features. Septoplasty, on the other hand, is a functional procedure that corrects a deviated septum, which can cause breathing difficulties. While rhinoplasty focuses on the aesthetics of the nose, septoplasty is primarily aimed at enhancing nasal function. Both procedures can be performed together at our office in Tuscaloosa, AL to achieve a more balanced and functional nose.
How Are Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty Performed?
Rhinoplasty and septoplasty are performed using advanced surgical techniques. Rhinoplasty involves making precise incisions, often inside the nostrils, to reshape the bone, cartilage, and skin of the nose for a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. Septoplasty, typically done through similar internal incisions, focuses on correcting a deviated septum by repositioning or removing the obstructive cartilage and bone to improve airflow. Both procedures can be done under general anesthesia and are often combined to simultaneously address cosmetic and functional concerns, ensuring a balanced and natural result.
What Are the Benefits of Rhinoplasty and Septoplasty?
Rhinoplasty and septoplasty offer both aesthetic and functional benefits, including:
- Improved facial harmony and nose appearance
- Enhanced self-confidence
- Corrected breathing issues caused by a deviated septum
- Reduction of snoring and sleep apnea symptoms
- Alleviation of sinus problems and nasal congestion
Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa Reviews
This will be the second time using Dr. Bunch! Once back in 2008 for rhinoplasty and now I will be having a breast augmentation. I wouldn’t chose anyone else. He and his staff are so caring and always on top of scheduling! My sister used him for her breast aug 7 years ago and had a great recovery and hasn’t had any complications! I’ve read a few reviews about his staff and again I’ll say they were wonderful!! I’ve also seen a few reviews about his performance and the recovery! Recovery and results depend on how well you took care of yourself during the recovery time! I haven’t met one person who can say anything bad about using Dr. Bunch! I highly recommend him and his staff! I will update more after next Wednesday after having my next procedure! He sets the bar high when it comes to a caring and professional plastic surgeon who does great work!
DEDICATED and LOVING - Dr. Bunch & his staff are one of a kind! After my surgery I had no pain or complications whatsoever. I was given the best treatment before, during, and after my rhinoplasty and other procedures. Thanks to him I was given a confidence boost and have been able to breathe so much better because of his amazing work!! Showed him pictures of exactly what I wanted and he did just that! The nurses are gentle with you and always going above and beyond their duties. Will soon be going back for more cosmetic procedures and I look forward to seeing him and the staff again. Highly recommend Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa!! Pain free surgeries & a true feel of care & comfort is what makes them even more perfect.
