Featured Procedure

Ultrasonic (Piezo) rhinoplasty

Shorter Healing Time, Less Pain -Ultrasonic (Piezo) rhinoplasty is a cutting-edge procedure performed by select surgeons, offering a distinct edge in precision and recovery. This advanced technique, currently unique to a Boston-based surgeon, uses high-speed sound waves for meticulous reshaping of the nasal structure. The result is less downtime, reduced bruising, and faster recovery than traditional methods. The procedure not only enhances aesthetics but also optimizes breathing. Patients often express satisfaction, stating their new nose feels like the one they were meant to be born with.

The rhinoplasty procedure

Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure your comfort and safety. There are two primary techniques: open and closed. The open technique involves a small external incision on the columella (the tissue separating the nostrils), providing full visualization of and access to the nasal structure. The closed technique involves incisions within the nostrils, leaving no visible scars. The choice between these techniques depends on the specific changes being made.

Types of nose reshaping surgery techniques

Rhinoplasty is not one-size-fits-all. Our facial plastic surgeons customize each operation to meet your needs and goals. Here are some common types of rhinoplasties available at the Boston Center for Plastic Surgery:

Female rhinoplasty

Focuses on creating a nose that enhances feminine facial features, aiming for a softer and more refined look.

Male rhinoplasty

Prioritizes preserving or enhancing masculine features, such as a stronger, broader nose.

Ethnic rhinoplasty

Acknowledges and preserves the unique facial features associated with different ethnicities while enhancing the nose’s appearance or function.

Piezo ultrasonic rhinoplasty

A newer technique that uses ultrasonic energy to precisely shape nasal bones with less trauma and downtime than traditional methods.

Revision rhinoplasty

Corrects issues from a previous rhinoplasty, making it more complex due to alterations from prior surgery.

Dr. Sanan changed my whole life...

    

"Dr. Sanan changed my whole life in a single surgery. For years, I had been plagued with nasal, throat, ear and sleep issues. All of these issues were dismissed as a mild form of sleep apnea. In one visit, Dr. Sanan listened you my concerns and health issues only to then determine that I was suffering from a severe deviated septum. My surgery was scheduled immediately. I didn’t want my nose to change cosmetically, so Dr. Sanan took considerable time to explain.  to me this procedure. His professional demeanor and grounded ness stand out in today’s fast-paced medical practices. My surgery was a HUGE success! I could feel the difference while still in the recovery room.  When I tell people of the profound difference in my breathing, sleeping and mental clarity, I cannot thank Dr. Sanan enough! I cannot recommend his services, skills and surgical abilities more enthusiastically! You are in very capable hands with Dr. Sanan."

I couldn’t have asked for better results

    

"Dr. Sanan was wonderful and attentive to my needs when it came to my rhinoplasty. I’m middle eastern and wanted an ethnic rhinoplasty that compliments my features instead of changing them. He was well informed on the culture and beauty standards, the consult was easy and smooth, and I couldn’t have asked for better results after the surgery. His team is very helpful and responsive. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Sanan for any cosmetic needs."

My experience with this office has continuously been incredible.

    

"My experience with this office has continuously been incredible. I am a surgical rhinoplasty patient of Dr. Sanan and his medical assistant, Elaina, and they both could not have been more informative, respectful, and supportive during this entire process. Text and email reminders are sent with every appointment, Dr. Sanan and his team are always on time, and were able to answer every question I had leading up to my procedure. After the surgery, post-operative instructions were clear, and Elaina followed up with phone calls and provided me a number to text or call if I had any issues or concerns. Cannot say enough great things about this practice!"
