Dr. Kent V. Hasen shapes, straightens, and corrects nasal deformities using a groundbreaking ultrasonic rhinoplasty technique to help blend the nose with the rest of the facial features for a more harmonious appearance.

- Patients whose nose is out of proportion with the rest of the facial features.
- Men and women with difficulty breathing or continued sinus drainage.

Rhinoplasty Procedure
- Rhinoplasty is done under general anesthesia.
- The surgery takes 2 to 3 hours.
- Well-concealed incisions are made inside the nostrils and occasionally on the thin strip of skin that separates the nostrils.
- Using the revolutionary, FDA-approved Piezo ultrasonic rhinoplasty device, Dr. Hasen removes and reshapes excess bone and cartilage. The skin molds down around this rearranged framework to arrive at the final cosmetic appearance. Learn more about ultrasonic rhinoplasty in this related blog post.
- The septal cartilage in the middle of the nose is removed or molded to allow for better breathing.
- Packing is seldom required.
- A splint is applied over the nose for 1 week to hold the tissues in place and decrease swelling.
- A chin implant often compliments this procedure and improves the profile.
Revolutionizing Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty using ultrasound technology changes the size or shape of the nose with less postoperative bruising and swelling. The FDA-approved Piezo ultrasonic rhinoplasty device cuts or removes nasal bone and cartilage with extreme precision, reducing trauma to adjacent tissue, blood vessels, and nerves.
Benefits of ultrasonic rhinoplasty include:
- Heightened surgical precision
- Minimized risk of complications associated with manual surgical tools
- Less postoperative bruising and swelling
- Faster recovery with less discomfort
- Results that look more natural
- Less chance of revision surgery

Rhinoplasty FAQ
Is rhinoplasty worth it?
If you have realistic expectations about your results (rhinoplasty won’t make you look like someone else), you will likely consider the procedure worth it, like the majority of Dr. Hasen’s rhinoplasty patients. While the results are typically subtle, the overall improvement in a patient’s appearance can be profound.
Is the procedure safe?
When performed on a properly screened patient by an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon, rhinoplasty is considered safe.
What’s the right age to get a nose job?
There is no “right” age for nose surgery as long as the patient’s facial growth is complete, which is typically around age 15.
Are the results permanent?
Improvements from rhinoplasty last indefinitely as long as trauma to the nose is avoided.
Is there anything I should avoid before my procedure?
It is important to avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, alcohol, and all nicotine products, including vaping, before surgery. You will be provided with specific pre-op instructions during your rhinoplasty consultation.
