Rhinoplasty - Cosmetic Before & After Case 349

This patient, an active professional, sought rhinoplasty - cosmetic in Washington DC & Arlington with a clear goal in mind. She wanted to elevate her nasal tip in a way that maintained her distinct East Asian features. Influenced by friends who traveled overseas for plastic surgery and returned with dramatic changes, she prioritized a natural look that would enhance, not overhaul, her appearance. After meeting with other surgeons in the DC area who recommended less conservative options, she consulted Houtan Chaboki, M.D., for his thoughtful and restrained approach.

The closed rhinoplasty technique was chosen specifically to avoid external scars and preserve her natural beauty. With thicker skin, this patient knew she might experience more swelling and required meticulous planning to support and gently lift the nasal tip. About two months after her procedure, the patient’s results are evident in the after photos. Her nose appears more refined, yet her ethnic identity and original structure remain intact. She has expressed great satisfaction with the outcome, appreciating that she looks healthy, vibrant, and unmistakably herself. Her rhinoplasty swelling will continue to improve with time.
