WIf you are considering a Rhinoplasty, there is something you should ask that you might not even be aware to ask, and that is, how is your breathing? Most people get a rhinoplasty to improve their aesthetic look but don't think how their breathing could get worse in their mission for a nicer nose. The reality is that the net effect of a rhinoplasty procedure is that the nose is made smaller and cuter, but it also weakens it. In this episode, Dr. Rahban and his patient Marissa talk about her journey with Rhinoplasty to improve her ethnic nose and how she gained a bonus by breathing better. She also discusses why she went the extra mile searching for the right doctor by traveling from Vancouver to Beverly Hills to get a consultation with Dr. Rahban. Together they delve into the difference between reductive and reconstructive rhinoplasty and why her reconstructive procedure helped strengthen and support her nose today to avoid the negative long-term effect of a reductive rhinoplasty.

In plastic surgery, not all procedures are created equally. Often, surgeons will take shortcuts to simplify a surgical procedure for their benefit rather than the patient's.

In this episode, Dr. Rady details the many procedures where doctors take the easy route and explains what questions you should ask to prevent your doctor from doing this to you. Are you getting breast augmentation? Will your doctor be using sizers or the Keller funnel? Are you getting a Tummy Tuck? Have you asked your surgeon if he will be doing the closures? These are just some questions you must ask to avoid being shortchanged on your future plastic surgery. Join Dr. Rady as he gives quick tips that can help you in your dialogue with your doctor's, so you know what to ask to get the results you expect and deserve.Get In Touch With Dr. Rahban!
