Turbinate Outfracture During Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty - Newport Beach Plastic SurgeonTurbinate in your nose clean and humidify the air as it travels through your nose and into your lungs. There are three small turbinate in your nose, with their positions named inferior, middle and superior. It’s not uncommon for people in Newport Beach to complain of allergies or of constantly inflamed, mucous infested turbinate. If you are considering rhinoplasty in Newport Beach, it can be possible to have your turbinate reduced during your procedure to improve your breathing.
Decreasing the turbinate in size will correct nasal obstruction while simultaneously decreasing airway resistance, most importantly, preserving the natural function of the turbinate. After your rhinoplasty and turbinate reduction procedure you should experience a substantial improvement in breathing as well as some reduction in nasal drainage.
Turbinate reduction can be performed in conjunction with a primary rhinoplasty procedure or during a revision procedure. If you are choosing to have your turbinate reduced during a revision rhinoplasty procedure be sure you have given your turbinate and nose ample time to heal. Profuse mucous production post-rhinoplasty surgery does not always mean that you need surgery to fix them. Depending on the patient, the turbinate can stay inflamed for weeks or even months.
Some techniques for turbinate reduction may not require an incision or cut to be made, if you decide not to have rhinoplasty surgery you can still choose to have your turbinate reduced at any time. It is important to discuss both functional and cosmetic problems with your Newport Beach plastic surgeon. Communicating your expectations with your surgeon will set you up for the best possible outcome. Call the offices of triple board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Ali Sajjadian in Newport Beach today for your rhinoplasty and turbinate reduction consultation.  Dr. Sajjadian has had extensive training and experience in all aspect of rhinoplasty and functional as well as aesthetic nasal surgery.

What to Expect for your Rhinoplasty Procedure

Rhinoplasty - Newport Beach Plastic SurgeonRhinoplasty by nature is not a procedure with a “blueprint.” Noses are like fingerprints, and no two rhinoplasty procedures will ever be the same. Each rhinoplasty procedure should be customized to address the specific anatomy and needs of the patient.
Newport Beach plastic surgeons can perform a rhinoplasty either inside the nose, or through a tiny incision at the external base of the nose, in-between the nostrils and the bone. This requires the cartilage to be readjusted underneath your skin. For more minor changes, your Newport Beach plastic surgeon can use cartilage harvested from deeper inside your nose. Cartilage from your ear can be used in case of revision rhinoplasty. In cases where there is a need for more significant adjustments, the cartilage will be harvested from either the ribs or other bones.
Your Newport Beach plastic surgeon will discuss your options for anesthesia with you during a consultation. Local anesthesia with sedation is usually used in an outpatient setting and is only effective on a limited part of your body. With this option you can expect to be groggy but not fully asleep. General anesthesia is inhaled and affects your entire body. You will be set up on a breathing tube, and will be temporarily unconscious for your rhinoplasty procedure.
Once your rhinoplasty procedure is completed you will begin your recovery. You will be instructed to rest in a bed with your head elevated higher than your chest. This helps to reduce swelling and bleeding. After your rhinoplasty procedure you will most likely notice an immediate change in your breathing. It is normal to feel congested or stuffy due to swelling in your nose. Our practice gives you extensive instruction as well as certain meds and dietary supplements to promote quicker healing and recovery.
Rhinoplasty is a highly specialized procedure, and requires a high level of skill. Triple board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Ali Sajjadian has experience with a plethora of noses, all different shape, sizes, and ethnicity. Dr. Sajjadian has the skill to help you craft the nose you have always wanted. Call his offices today in Newport Beach to schedule your consultation.

Asian Rhinoplasty - Reviance Portland

Dr. James Chan offers Asian Rhinoplasty procedures for patients in Vancouver, Portland and surrounding areas of Washington and Oregon.

What is Asian Rhinoplasty?

The objective of most Asian Rhinoplasty procedures is to make the nose more well-defined and prominent. Traditional Rhinoplasty procedures do not work for most of the Asian population; typically the flatter profile needs a higher bridge. Look at our Asian Rhinoplasty before and after photos to see examples of how this procedure differs from a traditional Rhinoplasty procedure.

How Does an Asian Rhinoplasty Differ from a Caucasian Rhinoplasty?

The anatomy of the Asian nose differs from that of a Caucasian nose for many reasons, including:
  • Nasal bridge is less prominent
  • Nasal bridge is wider and less angular
  • Cartilage is more fragile
  • Overlying skin tissue is thicker
  • Nasal septum is typically not deviated

Asian Facelift - Reviance Portland

Dr. James Chan offers an Asian facelift for patients in Vancouver, Portland and surrounding areas of Washington and Oregon.

How is an Asian Facelift Different?

In general, Asian skin tends to be thicker and less prone to sagging. Due to this, the Asian facelift is less invasive than a traditional facelift. Depending on your anatomy and cosmetic needs, there are various techniques available for an Asian Facelift.

What are my Options for an Asian Facelift?

  • Minimally invasive lower Face Lift
    Dr. Chan will surgically reposition and tighten underlying facial tissue. Results look natural and are long lasting. This technique is comparable to the Lifestyle lift, Quicklift, or MACS lift.
  • Traditional Deep Plane Face Lift
    The deep plane face lift is less commonly performed as Asians tend to have anatomy and an aging process that lends itself to minimally invasive lower facelifts.
  • Brow Lift
    For patients looking for a less drastic rejuvenation, a brow lift can tighten and smooth the skin around the eyes, eyebrows and forehead
To see which procedure is right for your aesthetic goals, contact Doctor Chan to schedule your Asian Facelift consultation in Portland today.

How is Asian Eyelid Surgery in Portland Performed?

Incisional Technique: Dr. Chan will determine the best locations for incisions based on your anatomy. The amount of skin to be removed can also be determined based on the desired height of the crease. Dr. Chan will meticulously shape your new crease by removing skin, fat and tissue.
Another method that is used less commonly is the suture technique. This procedure involves passing sutures inside the eyelid to create a crease. Discuss with Dr. Chan your cosmetic goals and medical history to determine which procedure is best for you.

What you must ask your rhinoplasty surgeon prior to surgery

There is certainly no shortage of plastic surgeons who offer rhinoplasty. It is a smart idea to shop around and get opinions from many doctors before undergoing any surgical procedure, but do you know what questions you should be asking during your consultation? Orange County plastic surgeon, Dr. Ali Sajjadian has a few tips for you and your rhinoplasty consultation.
According to the leading plastic surgeons across the globe, rhinoplasty is one of the most challenging procedures to perform. With that in mind, you obviously don’t want an unqualified, cosmetic surgeon performing your rhinoplasty. You want the best of the best, and to find that, you have to ask the right questions.
First and foremost, you should inquire into the surgeon’s educational background. Did this surgeon complete his residency in plastic surgery, or some other medical field? If you don’t ask this question you can end up with a surgeon who was primarily educated in something like dermatology, and took a weekend class to get a license to practice cosmetic surgery.
Next, you need to know how extensive this surgeon’s experience with rhinoplasty is. You can ask something like “what percentage of your practice is dedicated to the highly specialized filed of rhinoplasty?” You should also inquire into what type of anesthesia will be used, what their revision policy is, and ask to see some before and after pictures of their work.
Finally, you need to be sure the surgeon’s vision and your vision are aligned. The most important factor is to have a good conversation about your goals, desires and expectations of the final result. Many surgeons offer photo “morphing” so you can get an accurate idea of what your results should look like, and be sure the two of you are on the same page.
Most importantly, you need to verify the surgeon’s certifications. Ask if the surgeon is board certified, and if so, by what board?
About Dr. Sajjadian: Dr. Sajjadian has been invited to give lectures regionally, nationally and internationally on the topic of rhinoplasty for over ten years and is one of few plastic surgeons in the United States who holds Triple Board Certification from the American Board of Plastic Surgery, the American Board of Otolaryngology, as well as the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
