Rhinoplasty has long been linked with cosmetic surgery for women. However, in this era the modern man can confidently consider cosmetic surgery to improve those tiny imperfections that affects their appearance. These men are in search of a rhinoplasty that gives them a less noticeable nose, smooth, and symmetrical nose which would accentuate their positive facial features rather than drastically changing their appearance. A nose that fits a male face.

This 50 year old male is 8 weeks post rhinoplasty in this before and after picture. He wished to improve his droopy tip and large dorsal hump while maintain his masculine features. Dr. Sadati performed an open rhinoplasty to improve his nasal features. He is very satisfied with the outcomes and also has improved breathing as well.

A male's nose should look strong with masculine features. This is an easy concept to imagine but most of the time it is not followed by many plastic surgeons. One fit all is not a concept that can be used in rhinoplasty surgery. While it is acceptable to have slight tip rotation and narrow bridge in female rhinoplasty, it is would look odd and unnatural in male rhinoplasty.

A straight and strong nose is vital and important on a male face.

A male rhinoplasty should give the impression of being created by nature. Extreme tip rotation, size reduction, or overly narrowed bridge will give a slight but obvious hint to observers that something just is not right and appears unnatural.

Revision Rhinoplasty:

Board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Kevin Sadati is seeing a rise in the number of people who experienced an undesirable outcome from nose surgery and are now seeking help at his cosmetic surgery practice serving Southern California to fix an uncorrected problem.

It's estimated that about 15 percent of nose surgeries, also known as rhinoplasties, require revision, usually to correct a specific cosmetic issue such as a crooked tip or a functional issue like difficulty breathing.

"Most people are happy with the results of their rhinoplasty, but I'm seeing many new patients who are dissatisfied with their previous surgery and want to fix an uncorrected problem," says Dr. Sadati. "The common sentiment is that their surgery went too far or not far enough."

Differences between male and female rhinoplasty:

"The goal of male rhinoplasty surgery is to achieve an improved, but natural masculine contour, while correcting any internal deformities that may be causing breathing difficulties," stated Dr. Sadati.

Upon examination, a male nose tends to be more dominant on the face with a stronger profile. In correcting a male nose, Dr. Sadati uses the following key differences to maintain a strong masculine appearance for his patients:

Rhinoplasty for men in California:

"I think men are beginning to recognize that looking their best enables them to feel more comfortable socially and professionally. For many men, looking their best means modifying the most prominent facial feature – their nose."
