The power of a strong nose is difficult to underestimate. As the centerpiece of the face, the nose can be responsible for how successfully the proportions of the face complement each other. In other words, your nose can make or break the impression you convey with your face. To give you more control over the message your face sends, rhinoplasty for men – or a nose job for male faces – is designed to add or subtract volume from the nose and change some aspects of the basic shape. When considering rhinoplasty for men in the New Jersey and New York areas, the plastic surgeons at East Coast Advanced Plastic Surgery have experience navigating the special challenges posed by rhinoplasty in male patients, generating great results for patients.

What is Rhinoplasty For Men?
There are many reasons why a patient might be unhappy with his nose. For some, it might be that the nose is too large; for others, it’s that the nose is too small. For still others, it might be an inherited “hook” nose that is the source of consternation. Rhinoplasty as a procedure needs to be relatively nimble and able to achieve many different desired outcomes. Generally, during a rhinoplasty procedure, an incision is made through the tissue separating your nostrils, and the top layer of skin on the nose is gently peeled back.
In cases where the nose is too large, bone and cartilage will be removed from the bridge of the nose. The removal of tissue will be targeted and designed to provide a strong profile to the nose after surgery. In the case of noses that are too small, the cartilage that is specially designed to provide the desired final nose profile will often be inserted under the tissue. In some cases, the basic shape of the nose can be altered by moving cartilage as necessary, often from the septum to the bridge of the nose. In any case of altering the shape or size of the nose, the surgeons at East Coast Advanced Plastic Surgery are sure to consider the final proportions of the face, upon which the nose has a profound effect.
