What Is a Rhinoplasty?

A rhinoplasty, also known as nose surgery or a nose job, is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the nose by reshaping the internal cartilage and structures. Rhinoplasty in Houston is often performed for aesthetic reasons, but it can also address structural instability and breathing issues. Here, we focus on modifying the nasal tip, bridge, and nostrils to create a nose that better harmonizes with the patient’s other facial features.

Your Private Consultation

Your journey at Eisemann Plastic Surgery Center will begin with a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Eisemann at our Houston practice. There, you’ll discuss your aesthetic goals, functional concerns, and medical history, and Dr. Eisemann will examine your breathing patterns, nose shape, and nasal structure to determine if rhinoplasty is right for you. He’ll get to the root cause of why you want a rhinoplasty and listen closely to your preferences to build the optimal surgical solution for you.

Pricing Your Procedure

The cost of a nose surgery in Houston typically ranges between $6,000 and $8,000, but your cost will depend on the following factors:

Issues treated
Extent of correction
Rhinoplasty technique used
Surgical complexity
Whether additional procedures will be performed in the same session

If you’re receiving a rhinoplasty to correct breathing issues, you may qualify for insurance coverage. After your consultation, a member of our team will share a detailed cost breakdown and walk you through your insurance coverage and financing options for full transparency.

What to Expect From Your Rhinoplasty in Houston

Rhinoplasties are performed on an outpatient basis at our state-of-the-art QUAD A-accredited surgical center in Houston. We’ll administer our signature IV sedation with nerve block to prevent pain and discomfort during your surgery. Afterward, you’ll rest with a trusted friend, family member, or partner in a private recovery room until you’re approved to head home.

During surgery, Dr. Eisemann will make incisions following your chosen technique to access the nasal tissue. Depending on your needs, he may graft cartilage, reshape the nasal bone, reposition internal structures to improve breathing, or make small changes to your nasal shape to improve your aesthetic satisfaction. All incisions will be closed with small sutures to encourage consistent healing.

Recovery Tailored to You

Recovery after a rhinoplasty in Houston typically involves swelling, bruising, and tenderness around the nose and eyes for approximately two weeks. You may experience headaches or temporary numbness around the nose and lips, both of which are normal parts of healing. We’ll place a splint on your nose to prevent irritation and support your healing tissues during early recovery.

Most patients resume light movement in a few days, but wait to return to work and social gatherings until their bruising has fully faded. You’ll need to avoid strenuous activity for up to six weeks to allow ample time for healing.

Your Post-Op Process

After your procedure, you’ll receive a customized recovery plan from Dr. Eisemann. This plan may include the following items:

Incision site care and cleaning protocols
Splint-wearing guidance
Recovery clothing options
Hygiene recommendations
Activity limitations
Sleep position restrictions
Side effects to monitor
Swelling and pain management strategies

Over the coming months, you’ll return to our Houston office for several follow-up visits with Dr. Eisemann. There, he’ll remove any remaining sutures, monitor your healing progress, and approve you to resume high-impact activities, such as intense exercise and contact sports.

Types of Rhinoplasties

At Eisemann Plastic Surgery Center, we use the following three techniques to perform functional rhinoplasty in Houston:

Open Rhinoplasty

Here, Dr. Eisemann makes an incision at the base of the nostrils and within the nose to access the nasal cartilage and tissue.

Closed Rhinoplasty

This technique uses incisions within the nose to access nasal tissue and create cosmetic changes, resulting in no external scars.

Piezo Rhinoplasty

In this new, advanced method, Dr. Eisemann uses ultrasonic vibratory energy and custom-built instruments to precisely shape and remodel the nasal bone without altering the surrounding tissue, resulting in less bruising and swelling.

Completing Your Transformation

Many of our Houston patients include a rhinoplasty as part of a more comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan.

Complementary procedures include the following:

Facial implants
Facelift
Chin augmentation
Brow lift
Facial fat grafting
Ear surgery (otoplasty)

Rhioplasty Frequently Asked Questions

Will I have visible scarring after a rhinoplasty?

Dr. Eisemann strategically makes incisions below and within the nose to minimize the visibility of scars after recovery. Closed rhinoplasties result in no external scarring, while open rhinoplasties create small scars along the nostrils. If you’re concerned about scarring, we can include scar care recommendations as part of your recovery plan.

Can my rhinoplasty preserve my cultural heritage?

Yes. Our surgeons are highly trained in ethnic rhinoplasties to preserve your cultural heritage and avoid projecting a Westernized standard of beauty onto clients of African, Middle Eastern, Asian, or Hispanic or Latinx heritage.

How long will my procedure take?

Most rhinoplasties take one to four hours, but your exact surgery duration will depend on your unique treatment plan. During your consultation, Dr. Eisemann will review a realistic timeline with you so you know what to expect on surgery day.

Are there any age requirements for a rhinoplasty?

No. Age is not a disqualifying factor for adults exploring their rhinoplasty options. We also offer rhinoplasty for teens aged 14 and up.
