Rhinoplasty, performed in our office by Dr. Stephen E. Metzinger, is one of our most popular services. This surgery can improve the look of an asymmetrical, bulbous, or large nose while enhancing a patient’s ability to breathe. Rhinoplasty requires advanced surgical skills because it involves many intricate procedures. Therefore, our professional team follows strict clinical protocols to ensure safety and outstanding results.
Revision rhinoplasty is a complex surgery that corrects unsatisfactory results from a previous nose job. Dr. Metzinger uses advanced techniques to address excessive scar tissue, structural problems, or breathing difficulties that resulted from the initial procedure.
There are two main incision techniques:
In open rhinoplasty, an external cut is made across the columella (tissue between nostrils).
In closed rhinoplasty, all incisions are created inside the nostrils.
Dr. Metzinger chooses the approach based on the specific corrections needed.
This additional procedure rejuvenates the face by tightening sagging skin, smoothing deep folds, and repositioning tissue for a youthful appearance. It addresses aging signs in the lower face and neck. Our advanced techniques lead to natural results and minimize downtime.
This add-on procedure reshapes or enhances the chin to improve facial balance and harmony, often using implants or bone manipulation. It is frequently paired with other cosmetic treatments, like rhinoplasty, to refine the overall profile. The surgery helps address a weak or receding chin, creating a more defined and proportional appearance.
