What Is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure that reshapes or restructures the nose. It can be performed for cosmetic reasons to improve symmetry, size, or shape or for medical purposes such as correcting breathing issues or structural abnormalities.
Is Rhinoplasty Right for You?
You may be a good candidate for rhinoplasty if you’re dissatisfied with the appearance of your nose or experiencing chronic breathing difficulties. Dr. Goldman will assess your nasal anatomy and goals to create a treatment plan that suits your needs.
- Common concerns treated include:
- Nasal humps or bumps
- Drooping or upturned nasal tip
- Wide or asymmetrical bridge
- Deviated septum or obstructed airways

Your Consultation Experience
During your consultation, Dr. Goldman will examine your nasal anatomy, discuss your desired changes, and outline the procedural steps. You’ll also learn what to expect before, during, and after surgery, and see visual examples of realistic outcomes tailored to your goals.
How Rhinoplasty Surgery Works
Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes 1.5 to 3 hours depending on complexity. Dr. Goldman uses either an open or closed approach based on your anatomy and desired results. Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring, and internal adjustments are made to bone, cartilage, and soft tissue as needed.
Rhinoplasty Recovery and Healing
Most patients experience some bruising and swelling around the nose and eyes during the first week. Dr. Goldman will provide detailed care instructions and follow-up appointments to ensure your recovery is smooth and successful.
General recovery timeline:
- Splint removed within 7 days
- Return to non-strenuous activity in 7–10 days
- Residual swelling resolves gradually over several months
