Artful Rhinoplasty for Maryland, Virginia, and Washington D.C.
The nose is often an area of major concern for those interested in facial cosmetic surgery. Most of our rhinoplasty patients from Maryland, Virginia, Washington D.C., and beyond come to Ageless Impressions Plastic Surgery Institute to have Dr. Mark Richards create a nose that complements the proportions of the face. Others come to us because they are unhappy not with the appearance of the nose, but with its function. Often, clients seek nose surgery to improve both nasal form and function.
Many people look in the mirror and see a nose they feel is not in proportion to the rest of the face. In some cases, it’s a condition of birth; in others, the result of aging. In the case of a disproportionately large nose, Dr. Richards can significantly re-define its size and shape, leaving the patient with a nose more satisfying to his or her self-image, inspiring new self-confidence.
Even those who are satisfied with their facial appearance in youth may eventually seek the services of a cosmetic surgeon as they grow older. With age, the tip of the nose tends to enlarge, round, or become hooked. Rhinoplasty can provide our Maryland, Virginia, and Washington D.C. patients subtle refinements such as raising the tip of the nose and sculpting the cartilage to make it smaller and more angular, or dramatic changes in size and shape, all depending on a patient's goals. Rhinoplasty can reveal a more youthful appearance.
Another reason for rhinoplasty is to facilitate breathing. In many people, the septum, the vertical cartilage that separates the right and left nostrils, is crooked, creating a partial blockage of air passing in and out of the nose. Dr. Richards can straighten the septum, relieving the blockage and often allowing full, easy breathing.
Dr. Richards works with each patient to determine realistic goals and expectations for rhinoplasty. He then carefully performs the appropriate procedure, applying his considerable skill, experience, and artistic vision. This attention to detail with regard to rhinoplasty allows Dr. Richards to achieve exceptionally beautiful and natural results.
Whether your goal is to significantly resize and reshape your nose, to achieve a more subtle change, or to ease your breathing, Dr. Richards can help you choose the level of rhinoplasty that is right for you.
