Rhinoplasty can address a wide variety of concerns, including a dorsal hump, a bulbous or drooping tip, a wide or asymmetric bridge, a deviated septum, breathing difficulties, and the lingering effects of trauma. Dr. Carboy carefully evaluates each patient’s facial proportions, skin thickness, internal nasal anatomy, and personal goals to develop a fully customized surgical plan.
Good candidates are healthy adults whose facial growth is complete, who have specific concerns about the appearance or function of the nose, and who hold realistic expectations about what surgery can achieve. Teenagers are sometimes considered after their growth has stabilized, typically around age 15 to 17. Patients with certain breathing problems, including a deviated septum or collapsed internal valves, may also benefit from a functional component such as septoplasty performed at the same time.

Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure.
Most patients wear a small splint on the nose for about a week, and bruising or swelling around the eyes generally resolves within ten to fourteen days.
The nose continues to refine for up to a year or more as residual swelling settles, and Dr. Carboy follows patients carefully throughout that healing process.
