Rhinoplasty Before & After Photos

Case 1: Achieving a beautiful, natural change in an already beautiful woman is one of the great challenges we love in rhinoplasty. In front view you see a beautifully defined, natural change that simply looks great. Then on profile and ¾ views, you see an elegant change where the tip is deprojected (made smaller) but retains a beautiful, natural aesthetic- this is finesse rhinoplasty.

Case 3: For our patients who are in image-centered occupations such as modeling or acting, nasal refinements often focus on small changes that will enhance the overall look and remove subtle cues about the nose that preoccupy or distract the eye. This successful model had a look that really worked for her but had always felt that her tip and nostrils were too wide, flared, and slightly droopy. Creation of a slightly narrower and more structured tip draws unwanted attention away from her nose and, instead, enhances her overall look.

Case 5: One of the things that we love about rhinoplasty is that we can combine dramatic changes such as straightening this patient’s nasal twist, and at the same time create some subtle enhancements such as refining and slightly deprojecting the tip while reducing the sense of columellar show. At 6 months, her nose now balances with her face and really brings out her beautiful eyes.

Case 7: Creating beauty is about harmonizing facial features and that is our ultimate goal in rhinoplasty. This already beautiful woman was made more so by reducing her hump and softening her boxy tip. And, at 6 months, her improved sense of definition is going to get better yet.

Case 9: This handsome young African American professional had previously undergone septoplasty with resultant tip collapse. African American rhinoplasty must take into consideration weak cartilage, thick skin and a wide alar base. These one year results show a nose that is well-projected, refined, and narrowed while looking completely natural.

Case 11: The facial plastic surgeons at PROFILES Beverly Hills tailor every Rhinoplasty to achieve just what you are looking for. Sometimes, the most subtle of changes take just as much effort as the most dramatic ones. This pretty model didn’t want to drastically change her look. Her Los Angeles Finesse Rhinoplasty gave her the refinement she wanted, especially on her front and three-quarter views. Along with fat transfer to the lower eye area, her overall look was softened to make her that much more camera ready.

Case 13: Crooked noses can be one of the hardest things to correct in Rhinoplasty, especially if there has been significant trauma involved. The entire nose must be reconstructed in order to make the desired improvements. It took a lot of work to straighten and improve breathing in this patient’s nose. At the same time, his Beverly Hills Rhinoplasty was designed to make his nose a little smaller, more refined, and less down-turned while still looking natural. Even the scar on his tip was improved as part of his surgery.

Case 15: One of the hardest things to accomplish in a nose job is giving a person a smaller version of the same nose. In Los Angeles, where small differences can mean everything, doing Finesse Rhinoplasty is common. Even at 6 months, you can see that, on profile, this patient’s tip is less projected but he still has a strong masculine profile. On base view, you will also notice the deprojection and the fact that alar base reduction can be done with no visible scars and maintenance of the natural nostril curve.

Case 17: Rhinoplasty in this young woman was about removing the nose as a focal point and, instead, calling attention to her beautiful eyes and smile. By reducing overall nasal width and setting back her falling tip, she looks both younger and softer in these 3-month photos while retaining an elegant profile that is not too small for her face.

Case 19: A droopy tip and a bump can contribute to an overall heavy aging appearance. In this young woman, a conservative rhinoplasty involving straightening, hump reduction, lifting of the hanging columella, and tip refinement is combined with a chin implant, neck tightening, and fat transfer to the cheeks to create a transformative look. Best of all, these changes look so natural for her that you’d expect she had always looked that way.

Case 21: African American Rhinoplasty relies on creating a sense of tip definition and refinement along with nostril narrowing that looks and feels completely natural. In this young woman, tip projection along with subtle hump reduction rounds out the procedures done to produce a beautiful aesthetic.

Case 23: Injuries or fractures of the nose can lead not only to a crooked appearance but also to loss of tip support and severely compromised breathing. Functional rhinoplasty in these cases focuses on identifying and correcting all causes of nasal asymmetry while restoring support to the tip and mid-vault (middle part of the nose) so that the nose not only functions well but looks good too.

Case 25: This beautiful young woman was unhappy with her overprojected and crooked tip. You can appreciate how straightening and tip deprojection de-emphasizes her nose and creates an harmonious look and balanced profile that is very fitting. At the same time, the cleft in her tip has been softened.

Case 27: A twisted nose is very bothersome to many people because the asymmetry draws too much unwanted attention to the nose. Great care must be taken in fixing these noses since there is often more than one cause for crookedness that must be addressed if we hope to straighten the nose as much as possible. In this early six-month result, there is still some swelling, but we can already see the semblance of a straight nose with good contour and without the asymmetries that draw our attention to the nose in the before photos.

Case 29 A hump and a rounded tip can cause a nose to feel long and out of proportion with other features, especially in the setting of a softer chin. It is important in cases of thicker skin such as this to create a more structured nasal contour so that the desired refinement can be achieved as in this case.

Case 31 Crookedness and breathing issues were the main concerns for this man. At the same time, tip deprojection and hump reduction succeeded in addressing his aesthetic goals by softening the slightly protrusive appearance of his nose.

Case 33: For people with crooked noses, the desire for rhinoplasty to straighten is often a life long dream. This woman had always wanted to straighten her nose and she wanted corrective nasal surgery to breathe. After her Functional Rhinoplasty, this patient was so overjoyed by the straightened appearance and her ability to now breathe and smell that she was crying as she thanked us.

Case 35: This petite actress presented with a desire for finesse rhinoplasty that would allow her nose to match her slight, refined features. As an actress, it was important for her headshots to show a softer, more delicate nose that would enhance her doe eyes and match her face.

Case 37: Broken noses, such as the one this young man suffered, often result in troubled breathing. Twisted/crooked noses usually result from trauma, often at an early age. Rhinoplasty to correct these noses is more difficult than most realize; it is important to find rhinoplasty experts to address these concerns. The goal and result was to straighten his nose, lift and slightly soften his profile while still maintaining a strong, masculine look.

Case 39: A boxy, bulbous nasal tip can dominate an otherwise attractive face. Tip defining surgery can be done to refine the tip while preserving foundation so that results will be age appropriate and long lasting.

Case 41: For this young woman, the nose felt boxy and unrefined in comparison to her more defined facial features. Goals of rhinoplasty included lifting and definition of the tip along with subtle hump reduction to create a more sleek and streamlined nasal contour. Achievement of these goals creates a nose that harmonizes rather than dominating other features.
