Rhinoplasty Surgery in Marin

Candidates for rhinoplasty surgery in Marin County are patients whose noses are cosmetically unattractive or do not ‘fit’ with other facial features. This is a surgical procedure that is done to improve the appearance of the nose and/or the ability to breathe through the nose. Rhinoplasty surgery in Marin County, therefore, may be considered cosmetic, functional, or for some patients both. Nasal deformities may be present at birth or may develop with aging and growth. 

Patients often request removal of a "hump" on the bridge of the nose, refinement of a round nasal tip or elevation of a drooping tip. Noses that are crooked, too wide, long, pointy or flat may be improved. Realistically, there are limitations in achieving the final goal and the ultimate outcome will vary from patient to patient. Frequently, the nasal septum is deviated and needs to be corrected. A crooked nose may worsen this disorder and therefore, require correction at the same time. To view before and after rhinoplasty photos click here.
