Rhinoplasty is generally safe, but risks include:
It shouldn’t. In fact, many rhinoplasty procedures at Setty Plastics improve breathing, especially when combined with septoplasty or turbinate reduction. Dr. Chung is trained to balance both function and aesthetics, ensuring any changes to nasal structure support or enhance airflow.
Many patients seek rhinoplasty to correct nasal deformities or breathing issues from trauma. Dr. Chung can realign and reconstruct nasal structures to restore a natural appearance. He'll assess the damage and may suggest combining cosmetic and functional corrections.
Primary rhinoplasty is the first nasal surgery, while revision rhinoplasty refines results from a previous procedure and is often more complex due to scar tissue or altered anatomy. Dr. Chung specializes in both and takes a careful approach, especially with revisions.
In rare cases, some people notice subtle voice changes, particularly when internal structures are altered significantly. This is more common in professional voice users or singers. If this is a concern, Dr. Chung will address it during your consultation and collaborate with specialists if needed.
Dr. Chung selects the surgical approach based on your anatomy and goals. Closed rhinoplasty has hidden incisions and quicker recovery for modest changes, while open rhinoplasty allows more precision for complex procedures. Both can achieve beautiful results when performed by an expert.
Rhinoplasty results take time—what you see after one month is not final. If, after full healing, your nose doesn't meet your expectations, Dr. Chung will evaluate whether refinements or revision surgery are needed. Luckily, dissatisfaction is rare at Setty Plastics thanks to thorough planning and clear communication.
