In the past, poor results from rhinoplasty were common due to the removal of too much bone and cartilage during the operation. Dr. Eppley uses newer techniques to maintain as much of the existing structures of the nose as possible, focusing on reshaping and sculpting what is already there. This leads to a re-sculpted nose that is more natural and balanced to the rest of one’s face. Noses with higher bridges with less turned-up tips creates a more beautiful look that fits a patient’s face better. Because Dr. Eppley’s rhinoplasty procedures are more refined and delicate, the patient often has less pain, swelling, and bruising.
