Patient Testimonial

"I Had the Best Experience.."

"I had the best experience with Dr. Lapuerta and his staff from beginning to end. I've dreamed of a rinoplasty my entire life and finding this location and doctor gave me the courage to go forward. Everyone was attentive and understanding of my fears and appointment requirements(late appointments with 2 kids in tow). I booked my surgery the same day as my consultation. I immediately felt comfortable. Surgery went beautifully, no unexpecteds and I was in and out exactly on time. I had 7 days with cast then a post op where all was removed and I could more or less go back to normal while I continued healing. My nose gets prettier by the day. This was the best decision I've ever made ! (I recommend having some help for up to 3 days if you should have children with you at home) Good luck!"

Overview of Rhinoplasty in Richmond, TX

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed in an outpatient setting, typically with general anesthesia. The procedure may be open or closed based on the surgeon’s recommendations. The closed version is easier and is often the choice for easily corrected features. The incision is made inside the nose so that no scar is noticeable.

The open rhinoplasty requires the incision to be made under the nose or between the nostrils. The skin is pulled back with the procedure, and the surgeon makes structural changes to the nose. Once the incisions heal, they are almost unnoticeable. Dr. Lapuerta will determine which type of surgery to use based on the shape and size of your nose. The healing process will take a few weeks, with results being noticeable once the swelling and bruising have subsided.

Benefits of Rhinoplasty in Richmond, TX

Rhinoplasty comes with numerous benefits. The results are permanent, which means you can enjoy your new look without worrying about upkeep. This surgery can improve the size or shape of your nose, remove bumps and humps, and enhance symmetry. The surgeon can use this procedure to alter the angle of the nose and how it sits on your face.

Some patients undergo rhinoplasty for a deviated septum. If one nostril is smaller than the other, it can increase difficulty breathing. While septoplasty is the procedure used to fix the medical issues, rhinoplasty may be used to hide any visual issues. Dr. Lapuerta knows the communities around Richmond, making it more convenient for you to seek care close to home with the Plastic Surgery Institute of Southeast Texas.
