5 things to look for in a rhinoplasty surgeon


the best nose surgeons in the world

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, there are well over 220,000 rhinoplasties done every year in the US, performed by thousands of accredited professionals. 

If you’re looking for a rhinoplasty surgeon, make sure they pass muster on  five crucial things:  

1. Verified certifications from recognized boards of medical experts 

First and foremost, vet them. Verify that the rhinoplasty surgeon has been certified by the The American Board of Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery. Surgeons must present pre-qualification requirements before they’re considered for certification, which then binds them to a strict set of guidelines for the highest  care and safety of their patients.

If it’s not immediately apparent from the listed credentials on the surgeon’s website, clarify whether or not they’ve obtained their certification from the medical boards listed above.

2.  Continuing education 

Long after graduating and deep into years of practice, the best nose surgeons in the world will continue to pursue further studies. They enroll in training programs and professional conferences to further hone their skills and learn new techniques. Like any field or profession, rhinoplasty is constantly evolving as technology and overall medical understanding improve. 

The best surgeons actively seek out what will make them better for their patients.

3. Results live up to claims

Once you’ve ascertained a prospective surgeon’s credentials, check out their body of work. Is the work they’ve done true to their claims? Read what their patients have to say on the surgeon’s website and especially the reviews on ratings sites. Browse the before and after photos and videos of patients. Do you like what the doctor has done?  Have they worked on a  variety of nose issues, whether it’s a dorsal hump, bulbous tip, crooked nose, or deviated septum. You can closely observe how the patients’ newly refined nose is in harmony with their other facial features. 

4. Practices transparency 

A rhinoplasty surgeon practices transparency. They will be honest in their assessments of the procedure you choose – if it fits and if you’re qualified.  All will depend on the results of the physical assessment measured against the patient’s rhinoplasty goals and  preferences.

Surgeons  can refuse an operation for a number of reasons. Some may deem the procedure complex or risky, especially when the patient has had their nose done by a prior surgeon. When a patient is underage, surgeons will recommend waiting until the nasal bone structure has matured before operating (usually after the age of 18). 

5. Offers a custom approach

Despite similarities, no two noses are ever alike.  In other words, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to rhinoplasty. Therefore, your nose surgeon will carefully consider your needs and recommend the best approach for your specific nasal structure and facial features. 

They will suggest the best path forward after thoroughly assessing your condition.  Once you qualify for the procedure, your surgeon will make sure their work results in enhancing your looks and physical well-being. 

Lastly, If you’re considering a rhinoplasty procedure, it’s important to find the right surgeon for you. Make sure they pass muster on these five crucial things: experience, qualifications, approach to surgery, bedside manner and results. By choosing a qualified surgeon who has a good track record and takes the time to get to know you as a patient, you can be assured of getting the greatest treatment and surgical outcomes attainable.
