    Procedure Details

    The Art and Science of Rhinoplasty

    Rhinoplasty is more than just surgery; it's a delicate blend of surgical skill and artistic vision. Dr. Velasco Marín customizes each procedure to enhance your facial harmony while preserving your unique character, ensuring results that look and feel natural.

    Cosmetic Rhinoplasty

    Focuses on improving the aesthetic appearance of the nose to create better harmony with other facial features.

    Functional Rhinoplasty

    Aims to correct structural issues within the nose, such as a deviated septum, to improve breathing and overall nasal function.

    Dr. Velasco Marín often combines both cosmetic and functional techniques to deliver a result that is both beautiful and functional.

    Dorsal Hump

    Nasal Tip

    Refining a bulbous, drooping, or upturned tip.

    Nose Width

    Narrowing the nasal bridge or nostril base.

    Symmetry

    Recovery Process

    Rhinoplasty Recovery Journey

    Understanding your recovery timeline helps set proper expectations for the best possible rhinoplasty results.

    Day 1-7

    Initial Recovery & Splint Removal

    Rest with head elevated. Nasal splint is removed around day 7. Expect swelling and bruising.

    Week 2-4

    Return to Social Activities

    Most swelling and bruising subsides. You can return to work and social activities, avoiding strenuous exercise.

    Month 2-3

    Resuming Normal Life

    Breathing improves as internal swelling reduces. Most normal activities, including exercise, can be resumed.

    Month 6

    Refined Results

    The nasal contours continue to refine. About 90% of the swelling is gone.

    1 Year+

    Final Results

    * Every patient's healing process is unique. This timeline is a general guide.
    Is It Right For You?

    Are You a Good Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

    Ideal candidates for rhinoplasty are individuals who have specific aesthetic or functional goals for their nose and a clear understanding of what the procedure can achieve.

    Are unhappy with the size, shape, or angle of your nose.

    Have functional issues, such as difficulty breathing through your nose.

    Your facial growth is complete (typically late teens).

    Are in good physical health and a non-smoker.

    Have realistic expectations about the outcome of the surgery.

    The Best Way to Know is a Consultation

    During a private consultation, Dr. Velasco Marín will evaluate your nasal structure, discuss your goals, and determine if rhinoplasty is the right choice to achieve the results you desire.

    Common Questions

    Rhinoplasty FAQs

    Your questions about nose reshaping surgery

    Absolutely. Dr. Velasco Marín's primary goal is to create a nose that is in harmony with your other facial features. He avoids an "operated" look, striving for natural-looking results that enhance your overall appearance, not drastically change it.
    You will see a significant improvement once the splint is removed after the first week. However, swelling is a normal part of the healing process. While most swelling subsides in the first few months, subtle changes will continue, and the final, refined result can take up to a year or more to become fully visible.
    Most patients report discomfort rather than significant pain. You may feel pressure and stuffiness, similar to a bad cold. Any discomfort can be effectively managed with prescribed pain medication. The majority of discomfort subsides within the first few days after surgery.
    A closed rhinoplasty involves incisions made entirely inside the nostrils. An open rhinoplasty includes a small incision across the columella (the tissue between the nostrils). Dr. Velasco Marín will determine the best approach for you based on your specific anatomy and surgical goals, as each technique has its advantages.
