HomeRhinoplasty No, according to the Washington Post. The news and entertainment website out of our nation’s capital claims that not only do the self-captured photographs titled the “selfie”not actually lead to an increase in face and body consciousness, but the purported linkage from surveying plastic surgeons is weak at best. The site reports that children are increasingly undergoing cosmetic procedures like Botox injections, rhinoplasty surgery, and chemical peels. As an opinion piece, the author explains she feels this is problematic, but also that the trends may not be directly related to this new form of photographic self-expression.

Your face is one of your most important physical contributions to this world; surgical alterations to the face can boost a person’s self-esteem by improving their attractiveness.

HomeRhinoplasty Whether a local or national athlete, there is always the possibility that one can be harmed while playing sports. You may notice while you observe a sporting event that many of the players are wearing identical uniforms, but have various bandages, guards, and protection pads on. Some of this equipment includes facial gear, such as masks to protect existing injuries and prevent future damage to the area.

HomeRhinoplasty Rami K. Batniji M.D., F.A.C.S. has years of experience in expertly improving his patients’ facial features. A surgery that Dr. Batniji has become highly sought-after for is the revision rhinoplasty. Though rhinoplasty is a common plastic surgery procedure, other plastic surgeons may not specialize in anatomical changes of the face or lack the skills to perform this procedure. In addition to the shortcomings of other surgeons, the nose does not always follow a predictable course of healing. As a result, complications or an unsatisfactory result may occur.
A revision rhinoplasty may require the addition of materials to the nose, in […]
HomeRhinoplasty The Beginning of the Journey
Electing to receive a cosmetic facial treatment or surgery is the beginning of your journey to becoming the new and improved version of you. This process is important for a number of reasons. Your health and happiness may be positively changed in equal measure, alongside your appearance, if you choose a skilled plastic surgeon. This is often the case with rhinoplasty surgery that is performed alongside a septoplasty to improve the look of the nose as well as its airway function. Another example of this doubly positive experience is blepharoplasty surgery, which creates a wider, […]
HomeRhinoplasty A cosmetic surgery that treats the upper-third of the face is called the brow lift, or forehead lift. Typically, this area of the face shows obvious signs of a person’s years due to the expressiveness of the eyes and forehead. Few are the facial expressions that do not prompt movements that eventually contribute to skin maturity. The procedure is designed to smooth the skin of the brow, lessen the look of lines and wrinkles of the forehead, and perhaps most importantly, raise the eyebrows.
In addition to aging creating unwanted changes of the upper face, a surgically suitable candidate of […]
HomeRhinoplasty Patients may visit Dr. Batniji with an issue regarding a specific facial feature without realizing that one or more areas of the face may contribute to their dissatisfaction. Often times, a person is unable to recognize what would equate to facial harmony. Some individuals will seek the improvement of one feature, but their expectations of change may exceed the limitations of their facial anatomy. Below are suggestions of common dually-performed plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures that complement one another.
Rhinoplasty and Mentoplasty
One such instance of a successful dually-performed plastic surgery procedure is the rhinoplasty (nose job) performed alongside a mentoplasty […]
HomeRhinoplasty Also called Facial Reconstruction or Orbital-Craniofacial Reconstruction
Facial plastic surgeon Dr. Rami K. Batniji, M.D., F.A.C.S. sees a wide array of patients whose facial features are presented to him in various conditions. Some patients may seek their first plastic surgery of the face, while others come to him requesting a secondary procedure from a previous cosmetic surgery that did not produce the desired results.

Other patients may seek a sense […]
HomeRhinoplasty Rhinoplasty is undoubtedly one of the most commonly performed plastic surgeries. The procedure transforms the nose permanently and effectively, allowing patients to sport a new look that better suits their aesthetic preferences. Though there are many benefits to undergoing a rhinoplasty, less permanent, expensive, and dramatic results can be obtained to alter the look of the nose.
A non-surgical rhinoplasty, also termed a liquid rhinoplasty, is performed through a series of injections of biocompatible filler material, such as Radiesse, Juvederm, Perlane, and Restylane. With the exception of Radiesse, these dermal fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid and are used to […]
HomeRhinoplasty In high school, many teens believe looks are everything, which may be why more adolescents are considering rhinoplasty. Recent data showed that rhinoplasty is the most common plastic surgery procedure among American teenagers, and as more high schoolers evaluate its benefits, they should also recognize the impact of this cosmetic surgery.
Many experts feel that as teenage rhinoplasty becomes more common, it’s essential that teenagers have open communication with their parents as well as their plastic surgeon. Rhinoplasty changes how a person looks and, as a result, should not be taken lightly. Thankfully, teens who communicate with their parents and […]
