Rhinoplasty Birmingham

DANIEL ELLIOTT ROUSSO, M.D., F.A.C.S.

Among the most common of all facial plastic surgery procedures, nose surgery ("cosmetic rhinoplasty") is designed to change the shape and/or size of the nose. Individuals seeking an enhanced nasal appearance can consult Daniel E. Rousso, M.D., F.A.C.S., a rhinoplasty surgeon in Birmingham, at The Rousso Facial Plastic Surgery Clinic.

The Rhinoplasty Procedure

Men and women who want to reduce or increase the size of the nose, change the shape of the tip or the bridge, narrow the span of the nostrils, or change the angle between the nose and the upper lip may be good candidates for rhinoplasty surgery. Individuals who would like to correct a defect or injury, or relieve breathing problems may also seek the highly recommended help of rhinoplasty surgeon Dr. Rousso. He uses the latest facial plastic surgery techniques and technologies.

For cosmetic or reconstructive rhinoplasty, IV sedation or general anesthesia will be administered. Determined on a case by case basis, the rhinoplasty procedure typically takes one to two hours, with bruising and swelling post-surgery subsiding within two weeks. Alabama facial plastic surgeon Dr. Rousso will further discuss what to expect before and after surgery during an initial consultation. While dramatic changes can be made to one's nose, patients should have realistic expectations.
