How to Get Rhinoplasty

Nature doesn't always bless everyone with the looks they desire, and sometimes, this desire can really affect the person who is unhappy with his nose. Sometimes the end of the nose is too lumpy or maybe the person's nose is too wide for his liking. A bump may be undesirable in the middle of the nose. For whatever reason a person is unhappy with his proboscis, there is no need to live with looks that he perceives as unattractive.

Things You'll Need

• Plastic surgeon
• <br>Counseling

Instructions

1. After you have decided that you really want rhinoplasty (a nose-job), it's time to search for a reputable plastic surgeon with lots of surgeries under her belt. Former patient's references are helpful too in deciding which doctor is right for you. Don't be in a big rush to go onto Step 2, as this step is the most important. If you are not happy with your surgeon, you most likely won't be happy with the results.

2. This step involves the consultation with the surgeon of your choice. He will talk to you in depth about the way you would like your nose to look and why you are not happy with the present shape of your nose. He will take pictures of your face and show you computerized images of the way he expects you to look after the surgery is completed and you have healed. If you are happy with the projected image and if you get along with your surgeon and you feel happy with him, then this is when you will make an appointment for your surgery

3. The day of the surgery, ready yourself mentally for your imminent surgery. Be happy, as this is the day you've been waiting for! It might be prudent to take a friend with you as you may feel a little nervous, and driving may be out of the question for you after your surgery. The doctor will mark your face with a pen pre-surgery as a guide for her. You will be in a room relaxing. Just before surgery, if you are to undergo general anesthesia, you will be given some medicine and will start to feel drowsy. Sometimes the surgeon will recommend twilight sleep for the duration of your operation, which is not as risky as full general anesthesia, and you'll be semi-conscious throughout.

4. When you awake, you will be in the recovery room feeling a little woozy. Don't worry--this is perfectly normal. You may even feel a bit nauseous; again, perfectly normal after anesthesia. Your operation is complete! The bruising will fade in a few days and you will hopefully have the looks you wanted. If you had surgery due to medical reasons, I hope your problems are solved.
