An Introduction to Rhinoplasty
Nasal surgery (Rhinoplasty Surgery), the most common form of plastic surgery practiced in America today, is a procedure that alters the framework of the nose, manipulating the bone and cartilage structure and the skin to improve the appearance of the nose. It can be used to change the overall appearance of the face from one where the focus of attention was placed on the nose to one where the attention is drawn away from the nose and towards the eyes, a more natural, pleasing occurrence. When the focus of attention is directed towards any other feature on the face other than the eyes, the face is said to be out of ?harmony?. Rhinoplasty surgery, when performed correctly, improves the harmony of the facial features.
The Cost of Rhinoplasty
The cost of a rhinoplasty procedure can vary greatly from region to region, city to city and doctor to doctor. Just as in any field, including medicine, there are groups and people that provide low cost, operations for large volume client bases on low budgets and higher cost operations to superstar medical personalities willing to pay astronomical prices. After doing research beforehand and paying attention to published reports on plastic surgery, one can easily find the names of plastic surgeons in the Southern California area, or any area, who have worked on famous celebrities. However, whatever your budget and approach, you can save money by researching the topic, making an informed decision and consulting with several doctors or groups until you find the one who makes you feel comfortable, and who is charging what you are willing to pay for the procedure.
Rhinoplasty Facility Costs
No matter where the doctor and the anesthesiologist are going to perform a rhinoplasty surgery, there will be a cost for the facility. This cost includes and nurses or other staff necessary for the procedure, equipment and supplies to be used and the facility?s general overhead whether that is a rhinoplasty being performed in an office or one being done in a hospital. Obviously, if there is a reason that the work must be performed in a hospital, there is going to be a higher charge involved than merely the fee charged for a simpler office procedure. And finally, this fee will include any costs involved in the anticipated recovery after the surgery. If a small procedure has been performed and a local anesthetic was administered, a short time after completion, the patient may be up, walking around, feeling fine and ready to leave after a final examination by the surgeon. However, if the work was more complex, if an anesthetic was necessary to keep the patient asleep for several hours, if the pain quotient is expected to be higher due to the nature of the problem being addressed, it will be several hours after the surgery has been completed before the patient will be awake and several more hours before the patient is examined and allowed to leave.
Preparing for Rhinoplasty Surgery
You?ve done your research, had several consultations, selected your surgeon and scheduled the surgery. Now what? Following some prudent ?rhinoplasty before and after? suggestions can shorten your recovery, help to protect and preserve your health and improve your outcome. Here?s a typical scenario of things to keep in mind before your rhinoplasty surgery.
The Rhinoplasty Procedure
While most people have heard of rhinoplasty or nose surgery, most do not know what the procedure entails once you enter the hospital operating room.
Recovering from Rhinoplasty Surgery
After rhinoplasty surgery, your doctor will send you home with an instruction sheet listing many things to be aware of and take heed of after the surgery and before your next office visit. He?ll give you contact numbers to phone in case of any emergency that may arise or if you have any questions or concerns after you?ve left the office. He?ll ask you to keep your head elevated for the next two to three days. That is, if you sleep face down, he?ll ask that you consciously make the effort to sleep face up, on your back. This will help reduce the swelling and keep your blood flowing properly throughout the area. A common sensation is a feeling of stuffiness and a desire to blow your nose which you must resist. You?ll be breathing through your mouth for a few days and most people describe this as uncomfortable.
Revision Rhinoplasty
Revision rhinoplasty occurs when any further surgery is required on a nose to either repair poorly executed surgery, to correct some irregularity from a previous surgery or to hide scars or other surgical marks from a previous rhinoplasty. The important factors guiding revision rhinoplasty are:
Finding a Rhinoplasty Surgeon
"Selecting the right surgeon for you is both the fun part and the biggest challenge you?ll face when electing to do rhinoplasty. There are several national organizations and many state and local organizations where talented, certified professionals band together to offer the public a safe place to find competent, honest rhinoplasty surgeons. One I mentioned earlier in this text was the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) a respected organization that provides listings of professional surgeons around the country as well as all the information one could possibly need in getting help in selecting the right doctor. Another one is the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS).
The Cost of Dental Implants
As a form of elective surgery, the cost of dental implants can often be considerably higher than that of a simple crown of cap. Prices can vary greatly depending on the specific procedure, doctor and expectations of the patient. The cost of a single implant can range from several hundred to several thousand dollars, with some individuals spending tens of thousands of dollars on a complete rehabilitation. On average, patients can expect to spend around $1500 per tooth for a quality dental implant.
