Procedure Details

This young man in his 30's is a lover of extreme sports. As such he has fractured his nose several times over the years. This has resulted in him not being able to breathe well and a severe deviation of his nose. He wanted a straighter nose and to be able to breathe better. He consulted with Denver, Colorado rhinoplasty expert, Dr. Manish Shah, to help him. Dr. Shah was able to perform a rhinoplasty, septoplasty, and turbinate reduction surgery to open up the nasal airways, straighten the nose, and smooth out the bony hump on his nose. He was very happy with the results of his surgery and continues in his pursuit of extreme sports.

Dr. Shah used an endonasal approach (closed rhinoplasty technique) to perform a septoplasty, dorsal hump resection, and inferior turbinate reduction to produce the results you see in the after picture. The patient's breathing problems were fixed and he loved the look of his new nose. More
