Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty or nasal reshaping is one of Dr. Bradley’s most common procedure. It is also one of his favorite! Rhinoplasty requires great attention to detail to achieve consistent natural results. This is one procedure that patients should choose their surgeon wisely so that it is done correctly the first time. If a revision or re-do rhinoplasty is needed the procedure is even more challenging.
At your consultation Dr. Bradley will have a detailed discussion about your preferences and concerns. He will also do a full-facial evaluation so that an exact precise plan can be constructed that will allow you to get the natural result you deserve. Dr. Bradley will follow you for an entire year after the procedure to make sure the healing goes well.
