5 Rhinoplasty Trends in 2022

Rhinoplasty surgery was the most frequently requested cosmetic surgery in 2020, with over 352,000 procedures performed. 

Facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Philip Miller in New York City—one of the country’s leading experts in rhinoplasty and facial rejuvenation—can help you achieve a nose you’ll love. You may choose traditional rhinoplasty to reduce or reshape the nose. For other patients, non-surgical rhinoplasty is the right choice to achieve their aesthetic goals. 

rhinoplasty before and after results in NYC Let’s look ahead at five rhinoplasty trends we expect to see in 2022. 

1. Zoom Boom Brings Rhinoplasty Boom 

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, 2020 was a challenging year for many businesses. But for Zoom, the video-conferencing giant, lockdown and working from home brought unprecedented growth. 

Zoom usage jumped 67% between January 2020 and mid-March, when non-essential businesses and schools closed. The Zoom Boom also resulted in significant growth to an entirely different industry—cosmetic surgery. 

The built-in cameras on our computers are clearly not designed to flatter the human face, and many people weren’t pleased with the reflection they saw on their computer screens. 

The unflattering camera angle highlights facial flaws, such as wrinkling and sagging. People noticed unfamiliar lines, creases, and asymmetries as they saw themselves speaking on camera. 

It’s not surprising that the Zoom phenomenon caused a booming demand for cosmetic procedures such as dermal injectables, laser treatments, and eye lifts. 

On a Zoom conference call, the position of the computer’s camera relative to the user puts the focus on the center of the face, making the nose appear larger. As a result, demand for rhinoplasty significantly increased as well, and will likely continue into the New Year. 

2. The Need for Natural

In Manhattan, Dr. Miller is renowned for the natural results he achieves for his patients, both with traditional rhinoplasty—for patients desiring more significant changes and permanent results—as well as non-surgical rhinoplasty, for patients seeking relatively minor corrections. As demands for natural results will continue to be a factor in 2022, Dr. Miller is prepared to deliver satisfying results to his New York patients.

Rhinoplasty, also known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure that can improve the appearance of the nose by reshaping, reducing, augmenting the tissue, removing a bump, or adjusting the angle between the nose and the mouth.

A major benefit of rhinoplasty is that it’s typically a “one-and-done” procedure. Once the surgery is complete and the nose has fully healed, patients can enjoy the improvements over their lifetime.

If you’re dissatisfied with your nose because of minor depressions or hollows that affect its overall appearance, non-surgical rhinoplasty may be the right solution for you. Non-surgical nose jobs are safe and effective, providing immediate results with exceptionally short recovery time. With this non-invasive procedure, injectable fillers are used to make small yet dramatic modifications to the nose. 

Non-surgical rhinoplasty has its limitations, however. Since corrections are made with dermal fillers that ultimately dissolve, results aren’t permanent. Non-surgical nose jobs aren’t appropriate for every nose and can’t reduce the size of the nose. 

Results will vary by patient, but the longevity of a non-surgical nose job is typically between 8-24 months. During your consultation, Dr. Miller will determine which fillers might help you achieve the best results and how long the improvement might last. 

3. Faster Recovery Times 

Plastic surgeons today are starting to use techniques to minimize post-procedure discomfort and healing time. Rhinoplasty is typically performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia, and patients return home on the same day. While you may be up and moving within 24 hours, expect to take up to a week off from work or school as you heal. 

For the first several days, you’ll need to keep your head elevated and apply ice packs to reduce swelling. Most swelling and bruising subsides within a week following rhinoplasty. Nasal dressings, splints, and sutures are removed at about seven days after surgery. At this point, any residual bruising can be effectively camouflaged with makeup. Most patients feel comfortable appearing in public at about 7-10 days post-surgery.

Swelling will continue to subside and the nose may continue to improve in definition for up to a year after surgery. However, beyond the first week, these changes are subtle and typically not noticed by others. Many patients are pleasantly surprised at how quickly they recover from rhinoplasty. 

4. The Combination Approach

Achieving facial balance sometimes means making adjustments to the chin at the same time as the nose. Dr. Miller’s expertise with both procedures produces superior results. 

nose job before and after results in NYCWhen rhinoplasty surgery is performed to improve the overall shape and appearance of a nose, a receding chin could diminish the aesthetic effect of the face, making it look unbalanced. 

To achieve the best possible results with rhinoplasty, the proportions of the entire face must be considered. If your chin is well defined and proportionate to your new nose, your overall appearance will be aesthetically enhanced by rhinoplasty alone.

If you have a receding chin, however, chin augmentation surgery performed along with rhinoplasty surgery can give your face balance that rhinoplasty alone could not have achieved. Therefore, many board-certified plastic surgeons are beginning to suggest chin augmentation with rhinoplasty for certain patients.

Recovery after a chin implant takes around two weeks. You may experience swelling, tenderness, and bruising in the chin area immediately after the procedure, but most of these symptoms will diminish within about a week. Eating soft foods during the first week after surgery will help to make your recovery period more comfortable.

5. Image Morphing 

The ability to “see” your results before surgery is a benefit that more patients are wanting from their rhinoplasty surgeon. At his Manhattan office, Dr. Miller uses computer imaging to help patients visualize their new nose before undergoing surgery. Besides helping communicate the goals of the patient to the surgeon before the procedure, image morphing also helps ensure patient expectations are in line with results.

If you have difficulty visualizing what your ‘after’ may look like, image morphing can help. While the final result may not be absolutely identical to the morphed picture, it provides a good idea of what you can expect.

The NatraLook Process

Aesthetic Confidence is the sense of empowerment we feel about the way we look, dress, design, and decorate. It dovetails with confidence in our abilities, intellect, and emotions. The NatraLook Process focuses exclusively on the look component of Aesthetic Confidence. The NatraLook Process is an enriching experience through which you explore and ultimately boost your aesthetic confidence by enhancing your appearance.

The NatraLook process evaluates and expands the typical plastic surgery experience into a safe, non-intimidating opportunity to explore your aesthetic confidence. It creates a unified vision of your desired result so that you and New York surgeon Dr. Philip Miller know what to expect.

Turn Back the Clock with a Facelift

Manhattan’s world-renowned facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Philip Miller, specializes in facelifts and rhinoplasty. He offers several facelift options: a traditional facelift, a mini facelift, a Micro Lift, or the proprietary Miller lift. One of these is sure to be the right one for you. 

Facelift Options

A facelift, or rhytidectomy, may be the perfect procedure for you if you’re looking for results that significantly turn back the clock. This procedure removes excess or sagging facial skin for a renewed, youthful look. 

During a traditional facelift, incisions are made at the hairline and continue in front of and behind the ears, extending to the lower scalp. Fat can be redistributed from your face and neck through these incisions, or liposuction may be used for the removal of excess fat. Muscles and skin are lifted and tightened. 

Facelift, neck lift, dermabrasion and earlobe repair to enhance the appearance of a female patient by Dr. Miller. Surgery and treatment reduces jowl formation and wrinkles while firming and smoothing skin.

Incisions made during facelift surgery are hidden in the natural creases of your face and hairline, and meticulously closed with sutures to minimize visibility after your procedure. Drainage tubes may be inserted but can be removed in 1-2 days. Sutures are removed between 5-10 days.

A mini facelift targets those areas of the face that are just beginning to wrinkle and sag. The incisions are shorter than a traditional facelift, and often confined to the front of the ear only. The mini facelift requires local anesthesia and can be performed in 90 minutes or less. 

The innovative, minimally invasive Micro Lift mimics the improved appearance that comes with pulled-back hair. It can be a perfect option for patients in their 20s-40s who want to erase early signs of aging. Comfortable, safe, quick, and performed under local anesthesia, the Micro Lift takes less than an hour in the office and requires little post-procedure downtime.

The Miller Lift is a proprietary, custom-designed liquid facelift technique that uses a combination of fillers, such as Juvéderm® and Restylane®, to soften and fill out lines and wrinkles. Besides smoothing wrinkles, facial fillers can address volume loss in the cheeks, chin, lips, and other contours of the face. 

Along with facial fillers, Dr. Miller performs injections of Botox Cosmetic® to address the dynamic wrinkles associated with facial expressions, such as forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and crow’s feet. Collagen stimulators, such as Sculptra, and fat eliminators, such as Kybella, round out the Miller Lift. Results can last for up to two years. 

Achieve Balance with a Rhinoplasty

Surgical vs. Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

Surgical rhinoplasty, also known as a nose job, adjusts, corrects, or reduces the look of the nose. Dr. Miller will consider the prominence of your cheeks, your jawline, your skin thickness and quality, and the overall dimensions of your nose before advising you how to achieve the changes you want while maintaining overall facial balance. 

A major benefit of rhinoplasty is that it’s typically a “one-and-done” procedure. Once the procedure is complete and the nose has fully healed, patients can enjoy the results for a lifetime.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty, also known as liquid rhinoplasty, uses injectable fillers to make subtle, yet dramatic changes to your appearance.

Non-surgical nose jobs are safe and effective, providing immediate results with exceptionally short recovery time. With this non-invasive procedure, injectable fillers are used to make small yet dramatic modifications to the nose. 

Non-surgical rhinoplasty has its limitations, however. Since corrections are made with dermal fillers that ultimately dissolve, results aren’t permanent. Non-surgical nose jobs aren’t appropriate for every nose and can’t reduce the size of the nose. 

Results will vary by patient, but the longevity of a non-surgical nose job is typically between 8-24 months. During your consultation, Dr. Miller will give you an idea about what you might expect from your results as well as how long they might last.

Quick Pick-Me-Ups: Botox and Dermal Fillers

Surgery isn’t your only option for rejuvenating your appearance. Injectables minimize wrinkles and add volume in areas that lack fullness. With little-to-no downtime, injectables deliver results in a matter of days so that you can enjoy your fresh, youthful appearance right away.

Botox relaxes the muscles that pull on the skin to form wrinkles. Botox Cosmetic is superior to dermal fillers for minimizing frown lines, horizontal furrows on the forehead, and crow’s feet around the eyes. It can also be used around the lips, around the nose, or on the bands of the neck. Results last up to four months.

Dermal fillers, including Restylane® and Juvéderm®, are gel-like substances that restore volume. They fill in creases and static wrinkles, which form from gradual volume loss. Hollow cheeks, saggy jowls, and under-eye bags are common treatment areas for dermal fillers, which can last up to 12 months or more.

Functional or Cosmetic Rhinoplasty – Which One is Right for You?

The decision to schedule an elective or medically necessary surgery is not an easy one, and should be done with the goal of correcting a physical feature or medical condition to gain self-confidence or improve quality of life. Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that may provide multiple benefits for a patient, from cosmetic enhancements to improve appearance, to reconstruction of a nose or associated anatomy, such as the septum, to improve function. 

Dr. Philip Miller is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon and recognized expert in rhinoplasty. He will guide you in making the right decision on which procedure is best – functional, or cosmetic rhinoplasty. Your self-confidence and your health deserve the very best, and Dr. Miller can give you exactly what you need. Whether you are a patient in Manhattan, New York, or New Orleans, Louisiana, you will find the best with Dr. Miller. 

What is Functional Rhinoplasty?

rhinoplasty surgeon, Dr. Philip Miller consulting with a patient in NYC

The meaning of functional rhinoplasty is in the title – the surgery provides improved functionality to the respiratory system by altering the nose, septum, or other parts of the nose to improve breathing. Functional rhinoplasty, such as septoplasty, turbinate reduction, or surgery to mend a broken nose, can correct internal nasal anatomy that is otherwise impeding the normal process of breathing.

Reasons for a Functional Rhinoplasty

Patients who seek Dr. Miller’s expertise with functional rhinoplasty procedures may have one of a number of reasons to schedule a surgical procedure, which may include:

  • Nose injury due to trauma
  • Birth defect
  • Deviated septum 
  • Other conditions, such as severe allergies that alter the internal anatomy of the nose

Any of the above conditions have the potential for causing problems with breathing or other respiratory functions, so it is very important to choose a facial plastic surgeon for your procedure. Their training is extensive as they are also board-certified ENT physicians and have a thorough understanding of the anatomy and functionality of the nose. A comprehensive consultation with Dr. Miller and the NatraLook process guides you in making your decision to schedule your procedure. Let the results of your surgery, not the condition of your nose, take your breath away.

What is Cosmetic Rhinoplasty?

Cosmetics improve the appearance of the face; foundation, eyeshadow, liner, blush, powder, mascara, and lipstick are the basic tools in anyone’s makeup kit, but what if one feature of your face is not to your liking? Simple cosmetics may enhance the eyes, cheeks and lips, but the nose cannot change its size or shape with shading or color. A cosmetic procedure, however, can reshape or resize your nose in a number of ways to streamline and give your nose a better, symmetrical appearance.

Dr. Miller can give you a new reason to smell the roses with cosmetic rhinoplasty that can do some of the following:

  • Straighten a crooked nose
  • Create better proportion between the nose and the face
  • Reduce or widen nostrils
  • Alter the tip or angle of the nose to improve appearance
  • Remove a bridge bump

These are just a few benefits of a cosmetic rhinoplasty procedure a patient may see after surgery with Dr. Miller, whose expertise will provide amazing results. Reading about cosmetic rhinoplasty is the beginning; take the next step by browsing the before and after gallery of patients who scheduled an appointment with Dr. Miller. You may find your way to the contact page sooner than you think to schedule your own consultation!

What About Septoplasty?

Septoplasty is one of several types of rhinoplasty that is performed to correct a deviated, or crooked septum. The septum is a strip of cartilage in the center of the nose that creates an even divide between the nasal passages, but some people have a septum that is deviated enough to cause severe breathing or sinus problems. Septoplasty is a functional rhinoplasty surgery that can improve the quality of life by straightening the cartilage in the septum, which allows air to pass normally through each nasal passage. Dr. Miller explains how rhinoplasty, and in this case, fixing a deviated septum, can give you a breath of fresh air again. 

Because a true septoplasty or functional rhinoplasty may be considered medically necessary, the surgery may be covered by your insurance plan. A combination rhinoplasty (functional and cosmetic) may be partially covered by your insurance plan. 

The Combination Approach

functional rhinoplasty before and after results in Manhattan, NYC

Functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty both provide a patient with a positive outlook and more self-confidence with improved appearance and breathing. But can one procedure provide the same results as the other?

Functional rhinoplasty, such as septoplasty, may improve the appearance of a patient’s nose; since part of the cartilage may be removed to straighten the septum, this may act as an added benefit for the patient as it provides a cosmetic effect. Conversely, a patient undergoing cosmetic rhinoplasty to remove a dorsal hump (on the bridge of the nose) may experience improved breathing, as the cartilage in the nose is reduced and altered to change the overall appearance of the nose. 

Whether you are changing the appearance of your nose, or improving your ability to breathe, you may experience a combined benefit with long-lasting effects.  To learn more about both functional and cosmetic rhinoplasty, please read this blog from American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

A Complex Procedure

The nose is an intricate and unique part of the face that provides your sense of smell and allows you to breathe. On the surface, you want your nose to look pretty and proportional, and ideally, all of the internal facets of your nose should work together to act as an intake for oxygen. Rhinoplasty is a common, yet delicate procedure that requires the expertise of a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon to ensure that your surgery, whether functional or cosmetic, is successful, and meets your expectations. 

One of the added benefits of choosing Dr. Miller as your surgeon is the inclusion of the NatraLook process that goes beyond the run-of-the-mill surgery, providing you the opportunity to discuss your needs with Dr. Miller, and creating the best experience that aims to give you confidence and build trust with your surgeon.

Reasons for a Nose Job: Celebrities Spill

Rhinoplasty is arguably one of the most requested cosmetic surgeries in the U.S. (more than 350,000 surgeries were performed in 2020). But it’s not just us, non-famous people going under the knife. Even celebrities are no strangers to getting a little work done here and there, and some of them are not only admitting to getting a nose job but are also candidly standing by their decision to tweak their looks.

Double-board certified in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Philip Miller, is considered one of the country’s foremost experts in rhinoplasty and facial rejuvenation. His approach that combines art and science with skill and innovation provides thousands of patients in Manhattan, New York, natural-looking results that exceed their goals.

Who is Getting Nose Surgery? 

Friends co-stars Jennifer Anniston and Lisa Kudrow admitted undergoing nose procedures and spilled some of the details in their interviews. Jennifer tells People magazine in 2007 that she got a nose job for medical reasons, specifically, to fix her deviated septum. Lisa, on the other hand, reveals how her nose job was a life-altering experience. In her interview with The Saturday Evening Post in 2013, the comedian, writer, and producer said she went from looking “hideous to not hideous” after her surgery.

Big Bang Theory’s, Kaley Cuoco has no regrets about her nose job too. She spoke to Women’s Health in 2016 and openly shares about the necessity of looking good in addition to loving one’s inner self. She also says that you shouldn’t go through the transformation for a man or anyone else, but make yourself feel more confident.

People, therefore, (celebrity or not) decide to go through nose procedures for cosmetic and medical purposes. Specifically, the following are the common reasons why people choose to undergo rhinoplasty:

nose job patient before and after results in NYC, NY Reduce an Oversized Nose

Whether they are unhappy with the width, profile, or nostril size, many people struggle with a disproportionately large nose for their face. A reduction rhinoplasty or nose reduction addresses this common issue by removing, trimming, or rearranging bone and cartilage to achieve a smaller nose shape.

Refine the Nasal Bridge and Tip 

A nose that has a more prominent bridge can typically appear slimmer and more attractive. A nose reshaping procedure can heighten the nose bridge, giving the impression of a longer and more refined nasal tip. As a result, the nose will look sharper and more sophisticated while seamlessly blending with the rest of your facial features.

Boost Your Confidence 

Your nose is the first thing people see when they meet you. If you feel that your nose’s flaws dominate your face, it can be a source of insecurity and make you feel apprehensive about being seen. A nose job can correct the shape, size, and proportion of your nose to the rest of your face, enhancing balance and symmetry and ultimately making your entire face look more attractive. With renewed self-confidence, you can face the world with a new go-getter attitude to match. You will be motivated to seek new opportunities, achieve significant accomplishments, and pursue more personal relationships. 

Correct a Broken Nose

Accidents or injuries from contact sports can result in nasal fractures and broken noses. While some broken noses can be resolved with a basic alignment, some patients may also experience difficulty breathing. Dr. Miller specializes in the cosmetic and structural repair of broken noses damaged through accident or trauma.

Improve Breathing 

Jennifer Anniston says she slept like a baby for the first time in years after she had her deviated septum fixed. The septum is the wall of bone and cartilage that divides the nose into two separate nostrils. This can be crooked in some people, resulting in a deviated septum which can make breathing difficult. Dr. Miller can perform a septoplasty to treat nasal blockages. Septoplasty will straighten the septum, allowing for improved airflow through the nose.

Why Experience Counts 

Rhinoplasty is a very challenging procedure and one of the most difficult surgeries to master. It is crucial only to trust your face to an experienced plastic surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty. The best rhinoplasty surgeons know how to customize a nose surgery to the precise needs of each patient to achieve balance and natural beauty while considering both the form and function of the nose.

The Complexity of Rhinoplasty

The nose is a complex and delicate structure to begin with since it’s more than just a passageway for air. It consists of an intricate mix of fragile bone and cartilage. A blend of a surgeon’s training, skill, experience, and refined sense of aesthetics all come into play to achieve optimal results and avoid complications –because it’s not like molding a piece of clay into the desired shape. Rhinoplasty involves disassembling, augmenting, trimming, and repositioning the nose’s components where each millimeter counts. 


revision rhinoplasty before and after results in New York City The Prevalence of Revision Procedures 

Revision rhinoplasty is an all too common procedure. Approximately 5-15% of patients who undergo nose jobs will request a secondary procedure at some point. Cutting costs and settling for an inexperienced surgeon using outdated techniques, having unrealistic expectations, lack of communication between doctor and patient, and complications from the procedure and subsequent healing process can all impact the surgery’s results and become reasons for needing a revision rhinoplasty.


What is the Goal of Rhinoplasty? 

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to rhinoplasty. Dr. Miller always tells his patients that the goal of a rhinoplasty is to reshape the nose to create an overall improvement to the facial structure and aesthetic or improve its nasal functions. But don’t expect that a celebrity nose will look right for your face. It should not be your goal to match somebody else’s appearance, but only take them as a source of inspiration. Everybody is unique in their facial features and, therefore, should also be treated as such. Dr. Miller will help his Manhattan and New Orleans patients achieve a natural-looking nose that will complement their features rather than give them a celebrity “cookie-cutter nose.” 

Dr. Miller’s approach to rhinoplasty encompasses the NatraLook® process, which optimizes the patient experience by creating a collaborative environment that keeps you an active participant in your transformation journey. This ensures the most rewarding results because it is the process’s goal to empower you and help you achieve Aesthetic Confidence®.

Rhinoplasty Done Right the First Time

Correcting a botched rhinoplasty procedure is not a decision that should be taken lightly. The procedure can be much more intricate than the primary rhinoplasty and will require a surgeon with a broad understanding of the nasal structure and the best surgical techniques. The procedure, therefore, can take longer to perform and may cost significantly more than the initial surgery. This is why getting rhinoplasty right the first time by choosing the best plastic surgeon is crucial. 

Dr. Philip Miller has specialized exclusively in facial plastic surgery, offering his patients over 20 years of experience and knowledge. A recognized expert in rhinoplasty, Dr. Miller has been frequently invited to share his specific techniques with his peers at various national facial plastic surgery meetings. He has been voted among the Best Doctors in America each year since 2007.  In 2019, Dr. Philip Miller won the Castle Connolly Top Doctors award

3-D Rhinoplasty in NYC

3-D Rhinoplasty results in NYC Reasons For Rhinoplasty

  • Nasal issue that makes breathing through the nose difficult.
  • An injury of your nose or facial structure that may need reconstructive work.
  • Genuine dissatisfaction with the appearance of your nose.

When making your decision, there are various types of rhinoplasty that may be a solution.

-But is there such a thing as a 3D Nose Job you ask?

Yes. Dr. Miller has incorporated 3-D technology into his practice and is capable of showing you your intended result in 3-D. A modification of the tip from the side can be viewed simultaneously in every direction. This allows the surgeon to not only assess from every angle and determine an appropriate strategy and treatment plan, but the opportunity for you to virtually see the results. This ensures a patient’s expectations and if their desired, expectations/results can be achieved. The accuracy of the optimal aesthetic can be executed using the most innovative techniques step by step.

Otherwise Known As:

First of all, virtual rhinoplasty is NOT rhinoplasty. I had to get that out there because I’m sure someone would read “virtual rhinoplasty” and think of it as an alternative to the actual procedure or surgery. It’s not. Virtual rhinoplasty supplements the procedure by providing a more reliable picture (literally) of what the end result will be.

Virtual Rhinoplasty allows you the ability to access one’s options but also their success rate before ever even stepping foot into a surgical suite. Through the most cutting-edge (pun-intended) computer imaging and advanced technology, potential nose job patients no longer feel doubt or apprehension when considering surgical treatment.

The Patient Benefit of Going 3D

  • By utilizing 3D virtual and digitized imaging, you are eliminating unrealistic expectations and offering an accurate understanding of the outcome of each procedure.
  • Since the nose is the focal point of the face, people need to visualize the potential success and the various methods being used by their trusted surgeon.

The positive news is through virtual rhinoplasty these concerns are becoming a thing of the past. Patients can now experience total ease and comfort from the consultation, the procedure being performed and the completion of the recovery process.

Exploring Every Option

  • Virtual rhinoplasty allows you to explore every treatment option and possible method for achieving the right proper aesthetic.
  • Through the computer software, individuals may see how the various techniques will impact the final design of the nose.
  • The pre-operative photographs are key for analyzing a nose from different angles and essentially manipulating the photos to precisely predict the execution method with a specialized, virtual rhinoplasty computer program.
  • Your overall aesthetic will benefit as changes in tip contouring and nasal reshaping will become more evident and the tool will prove best efficient for choosing the procedure that will increase optimal results.

Virtual Break Down

Your nose is photographed using a 3D camera.

The resulting image is manipulated to show, with surprising accuracy, how you will look after the procedure.

There are two advantages to this.

  • First, you can enter the procedure with realistic expectations of the end result. This is a helpful aid in making the decision to have the work done or not.
  • Second, you can discuss the outcome with the surgeon who can also provide you with possible visual alternatives (depending on what they need).

This allows you more control over the outcome than would be available without 3D imaging technology. It’s really a “win-win” for you and your doctor alike.

Window Into The Future

With a window into the future, virtual rhinoplasty improves the communication between the surgeon and the patient, as well as a boost in confidence and of course, appearance! Dr. Miller is renowned for his experience successfully working with patients to realize their nose job goals. With virtual rhinoplasty, Dr. Miller is able to reinforce his expertise with the exceptional computer-generated images.

Never before has a rhinoplasty patient had such clarity into what to expect after a nose job procedure. If you’re on the fence about how rhinoplasty can improve your overall appearance, Virtual Rhinoplasty gives you an extremely accurate view into the “new” you.
