Rhinoplasty Specialist from Washington DC discusses healing time after a nose job

Male rhinoplasty is really not that different than female rhinoplasty. You're dealing with a cartilage bone and the skin. However, you have to do imaging. Computer imaging is even more important in men than it is in women, because the man has to be able to visualize himself with a new look. Men are really not used to drastic changes in their look. While women can get makeovers and look different from day to day, men really aren't used to that kind of a change. So. So the male patient has to be able to identify with a new looking nose and a new looking face. Also, it's important to create a natural looking nose, a strong nose, a masculine nose, and not feminize the nose. Once all that stuff is done and you can actually screen out men with improper expectations, body dysmorphic disorders, narcissistic personalities, things like that, that are red flags for rhinoplasty, the surgery is essentially the same.
