Rhinoplasty Candidates

The best candidates for rhinoplasty are 15 years or older and are dissatisfied with the size or shape of their noses. The procedure is also an option for men and women who suffer from complications of a deviated septum. Rhinoplasty candidates should be in good health and should have realistic expectations regarding the outcome of the procedure. It is important to disclose all health conditions and medications to Dr. Toledo prior to surgery to ensure a safe procedure and recovery period.

The Procedure

Dr. Toledo performs rhinoplasty for Dallas patients at his state-of-the-art practice, Highland Park Plastic Surgery Center. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and can take anywhere from one to two hours, depending on the extent of changes being made. The procedure can be performed as an "open" procedure, with incisions being made within the nose and along the columella, or as a "closed" procedure, with incisions made only inside the nose. The type of procedure performed depends on the specific changes being made, as well as Dr. Toledo’s recommendations and the patient’s preferences. During surgery, Dr. Toledo makes adjustments to the nasal tissue and may make changes to the bone structure. After this is complete, sutures are placed and outside cast is put in place to stabilize the nose.

After Nose Surgery

Dr. Toledo and the staff at Highland Park Plastic Surgery Center are committed to providing exceptional patient care before, during and after the rhinoplasty procedure. Dr. Toledo provides thorough post-operative instructions to facilitate a quick and safe healing process. He also sees patients for post-op visits and is available around the clock to address any questions or concerns that may arise.

Nasal sutures and the cast are removed from the nose a few days after the procedure, and the majority of swelling will subside within two weeks. Although results of the procedure are evident immediately, it can take several months for the nose to settle into its final position and shape. Many of Dr. Toledo’s rhinoplasty Dallas patients find that the new shape or size of their nose highlights their other natural features and creates a harmonious balance. This not only enhances their overall appearance, it also improves their self-esteem.
