Above are three sets of before and after photographs of a patient who underwent closed septorhinoplasty surgery 5 years ago*. Even though the closed rhinoplasty technique is not commonly used in my practice (mainly because the open approach provides superior access and control to the various nasal structures that require modification during complex rhinoplasty cases) this is an example of…
Cosmetic nasal surgery – otherwise known as rhinoplasty – is the most popular procedure in my practice. Although the nose is a central feature of the face, it should not be a focal point of the face. Rather, it should lead the observers into the individual’s eyes, lips and smile. In other words, after a successfully performed rhinoplasty, the nose…
The following is a series of three before and after photos of an open rhinoplasty procedure completed for a patient in our Vancouver plastic surgery clinic. The “after” photos were taken one year following the open rhinoplasty plastic surgery. The goal of the rhinoplasty was to make the nose more feminine and balanced with the other facial features.

One of the most challenging – and satisfying – parts of a full rhinoplasty is adjusting the rotation of the nasal tip. Tip rotation is defined by the position of the nasal tip relative to the nasal dorsum (bridge) and the lip. The angle between the lip and the nose (the nasolabial angle) is smaller in an under rotated nose than it is in an…
Neck Lift, Submentoplasty and Playsmaplasty: I often see patients who are unhappy with the age related changes that have occurred in their neck. Often I am told that the changes happened literally overnight. What do patients notice? Mainly three things: first, skin changes – either a change in the texture and appearance of the skin or a change in the amount…
