Rhinoplasty is performed under IV sedation as an outpatient procedure. This treatment offers different surgical methods, depending on your cosmetic concerns and problems. Dr. Rough performs nose surgery with either an open or closed technique. The objective during surgery is to reshape or get rid of excess cartilage, tissue, and bone to create facial balance and fix an obstructed airway. The nose is repositioned, and the skin is draped over the newly improved framework. Sutures are placed either on the inside portion of the nose or within the natural external fold. The nose may also be placed in a splint for added support.
James Rough, M.D. Plastic Surgery provides rhinoplasty as a simple solution if you are dissatisfied with the appearance of your nose or if you have breathing issues. Rhinoplasty is a popular cosmetic treatment with high success rates. Dr. Rough can make improvements to your nose so your entire face appears more proportional.

The cost of nose reshaping surgery varies based on what technique is used and how complex your procedure is. Before estimating costs, Dr. Rough will listen to your needs and goals to help develop your custom treatment plan. Once this is done, he can discuss costs for the facility, anesthesia, and more. To get your best results, it's important to select an experienced surgeon, like Dr. Rough, instead of the cheapest cost. To help make your surgery easy to afford, James Rough, M.D. Plastic Surgery accepts many payment methods, and our office can help you find low-interest financing.
While rhinoplasty to improve your appearance is not paid by insurance, if your nose reshaping surgery is considered medically necessary to improve your breathing, some of your costs may be covered by insurance. If you are considering applying for reimbursement from your insurance, please tell Dr. Rough during your consultation. Our office will help you submit any needed paperwork and information to your insurance to properly process your claim.
If you want to smooth the appearance of lumps and bumps on your nose, a hyaluronic acid-based wrinkle filler (like Juvéderm or Restylane) may be an option. An injectable filler can temporarily improve minor imperfections on your nose, which may help you decide if you want to get a rhinoplasty. Nose surgery is better for long-lasting results, larger changes, and adjusting the internal structure for better function. At your consultation, Dr. Rough can tell you more about nonsurgical nose reshaping.
