After 5 to 10 years though, you’ll continue to age and may start to see some of these signs of aging creeping back again. Depending on your genetics, lifestyle, overall health, and the type of procedure performed, this may happ ..read more

Nasal implants are often used to build up the nasal bridge or project and define the nasal tip. They can also be used to correct a drooping tip. The most common synthetic materials used in nasal implants are silicone, Gore-Tex and Medpor. Nasal implants of foreign materials should be distinguished from nasal grafts that are sculpted from the patient’s own septum, ear or rib cartilage, bone, or nasal soft tissues. Drs. Litner and Solieman prefer the latter method whenever possible, as the risk of infection and other complications is much lower. Recently, the doctors have encountered more cases ..read more

Can rhinoplasty procedures cause a change in the patient’s tone of voice? The short answer to this question is no.
