Meet Dr. Ardesh: Your Trusted Doctor for Rhinoplasty In Los Angeles

Dr. Ardesh is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon specializing in rhinoplasty and nasal surgery. With years of experience and a deep understanding of facial anatomy, Dr. Ardesh offers a meticulous and personalized approach to rhinoplasty, ensuring optimal results for each patient. His expertise in reshaping nasal bones, cartilage, and tissues means that whether you're seeking aesthetic changes or improved breathing, you're in expert hands.

Can Rhinoplasty Improve Breathing?

Yes, rhinoplasty may improve breathing when nasal obstruction is caused by structural problems such as:

  • A deviated septum
  • Narrow nasal passages
  • Nasal valve weakness
  • Previous trauma
  • Structural changes after earlier surgery

When appearance and breathing are both concerns, cosmetic reshaping and functional correction may be planned together.

What Can Rhinoplasty in Los Angeles Correct?

Rhinoplasty can change the shape, size, position, or internal structure of the nose.

It may help address:

  • A bump on the nasal bridge
  • A wide or poorly defined tip
  • A drooping nasal tip
  • A nose that appears too large
  • Wide nostrils
  • A crooked or asymmetrical nose
  • Changes caused by injury
  • Difficulty breathing through the nose
  • Concerns after previous nose surgery

The surgical approach depends on whether the concern involves bone, cartilage, the septum, or several structures together.

Rhinoplasty in Los Angeles for a Dorsal Hump or Wide Tip

A dorsal hump can make the nose appear prominent from the side, while a wide or bulbous tip may affect the front view.

Rhinoplasty may reduce excess bone and cartilage along the bridge, refine the tip, improve definition, adjust projection, or lift a downward-pointing tip. Skin thickness and cartilage strength influence how much refinement can be achieved.

Revision Rhinoplasty in Los Angeles

Revision rhinoplasty is for patients who have already had nose surgery but remain concerned about the shape, symmetry, support, or function of the nose.

It may address:

Revision rhinoplasty in Los Angeles usually requires more detailed planning because scar tissue and altered cartilage may affect what can safely be corrected.

A pinched or uneven tip

An over-reduced bridge

Persistent crookedness

Visible irregularities

Nasal collapse

Ongoing breathing difficulty

How Long Does Rhinoplasty Recovery Take?

Most patients experience swelling, congestion, and possible bruising during the first week. Many return to non-strenuous work within one to two weeks.

The bridge often settles sooner, while tip swelling may take longer to improve. Smaller changes continue developing over several months as the nose heals.

Open Rhinoplasty

Open rhinoplasty involves a small incision across the columella, allowing direct visualization of the cartilage framework beneath. Dr. Ardesh uses this approach for significant structural reshaping, complex tip work, cartilage grafting, and revision cases. The columellar scar, when properly closed, typically becomes imperceptible within 12 months.

Closed Rhinoplasty

Closed rhinoplasty places all incisions inside the nostrils. No external scarring results. This technique is appropriate for patients requiring moderate changes where full structural access is not necessary.
