photo of a beautiful young woman looks at her ears in front of the mirror It’s summer. Yes it is. It’s that time when thoughts drift to the beaches and backyard barbecues. The trip to the mountains.

It’s also when kids of all ages, pre-teen and teens alike, have free time on their hands. A whole summer’s worth.

But this time off can be put to good use. Because ears frame the face, and, since the ear is fully grown by age 5, there may be pre-teen, teen or college age kids out there who have been dissatisfied with the appearance of their ears for years.

The high school years are full of discoveries for teens. New subjects are introduced, experimentation takes place, and learning abounds. Exploring new aspects of the world can lead to self-examination. Many teens come to the conclusion that they are unhappy with the size or shape of their nose during these years. Some teens have discovered difficulty with breathing and are anxious to get the condition remedied. Others wish to achieve facial balance by reducing the size or changing the shape of their nose. Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a “nose job,” is one of the most-requested procedures for teens. Many want to have this procedure before going to college.

There are numerous reasons individuals consider rhinoplasty surgery:

Hump nose

From the Desk of Dr. Farzad R. Nahai: Eyelift Surgery in the Office? Yes we can.

Benefits of Eyelift Surgery Are Numerous

photo of a woman's face before and after blepharoplasty Eyelift surgery, or blepharoplasty, is one of the most common procedures I perform. Aging takes a toll on the eyes. The thin skin of the lids sags and the result is a sleepy look. If you think about the majority of your day-to-day interactions, most people look at your eyes while conversing. Blepharoplasty can rid you of that sleepy look by surgically removing lax skin, fat pads, and bags under the eyes. The benefits of the eyelift are numerous.

Blepharoplasty Can Be Done In the Office

For a procedure on a comparatively small area, there is a lot of “bang for the buck” so to speak. Many of my patients are pleasantly surprised to hear that eyelid surgery– both upper […]

Benefits of Natural Rhinoplasty Results

From the Desk of Dr. Farzad R. Nahai: The Benefits of Natural Rhinoplasty Techniques

Many patients come to my office asking to have their nose changed. Often I hear requests for removing a hump and making the tip smaller. In some cases I am asked to improve on a previously done nose job which often requires rebuilding the nose to some degree. Plastic surgeons have learned a lot since the days of the aggressive and overdone rhinoplasties of the 1980’s. Those procedures often led to an overdone ‘plastic’ appearance that was not only too small but also risked secondary deleterious functional changes like difficulty breathing. Many of my patients are seeking natural rhinoplasty results that are balanced with the entire face and this is my preferred route as well. A well done rhinoplasty should only be known to the surgeon and the […]

Make Me Breathe Better!

By ctidev|2018-03-26T15:24:16+00:00February 27th, 2018|Rhinoplasty|

Rhinoplasty can both improve the appearance of your nose and the breathing through your nose. There are several common reasons why you may have difficulty breathing through your nose; a deviated septum, traumatic injury, enlarged internal components, and internal or external valve collapse. Fortunately all of these issues can be addressed at the time of a nose job. Sometimes due to the natural way that your septum developed it can have a severe curvature or warp that can totally block or partially block your nasal airways. The septum is like a rudder on a ship, if deviated can be the cause of a crooked nose. Trauma to the nose can cause an injury to the bone and/or cartilages that weakens, collapses, or severely deforms them resulting in blocked nasal passages. The internal valve is like a tent that keeps the […]

When to Start Using injectables

From the desk of Dr. Nahai: When to start using injectables

Injectables like botox and fillers are incredibly popular and effective ways to improve your appearance and combat (and sometime even prevent) the signs of aging. The average age of someone who tries botox or fillers for the first time is their early forties. I tell patients that the right time is when you are ready and want to improve a certain feature on your face. It may be because make up can no longer manage the area or you have come to the point where a feature bothers you enough to try something. When used before wrinkles set in, botox can even lessen the formation of creases and lines in the forehead and around the eyes. When done well, fillers and toxins can be tailored to your needs and […]
