Considering Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery) in
Seattle. Facial Plastic Surgeon Dr.
Portuese can help. Surgery of the nose or Rhinoplasty is performed
to increase or decrease the size of the nose, sculpt and change the shape of
the tip, bridge, bones, cartilage or nostril size of the nose. Nothing has a
greater impact on how a person looks than the size and shape of the nose. Because
the nose is the most defining characteristic of the face, a slight alteration
can greatly improve one's appearance.
It's important to have realistic goals and expectations regarding the outcome
of the surgery. It's also important to consider why you would have nasal
surgery. The goal is to improve the nose aesthetically, to better balance
with other facial features. 18 year olds and younger must have the consent of
their parents.

Surgery is performed through small incisions on the inside of the nose. There are no external incisions. The skin is lifted off the cartilage and bone framework of the nose and then sculpted to the appropriate shape. The skin is then placed in position and dissolvable sutures are used to close the incisions inside the nose. Call Dr. Portuese at (206) 624-6200 for more information about Rhinoplasty
