Westlake Plastic Surgery’s Dr. Robert Caridi visited We Are Austin to share more about the world of rhinoplasty, offering a peek into the transformative journey of nose reshaping.
“It’s a nose job, essentially,” Caridi explained. Typically patients are not satisfied with their nose as-is and are seeking reshaping that looks natural.
“Typically it’s a hump, a big tip, a long hook nose– there’s some feature about their nose that they don’t like and therefore they want to change it,” he explained.
Recovery is about 5 days and then patients can see their new nose. “It’s so heartwarming for me to be part of their transformation and it has impact far greater than most people would think,” Caridi added.
While a common procedure, he said it’s a procedure you should only leave to a seasoned professional.
“It’s your job to really scrutinize your surgeons and make sure they muster up,” Caridi suggested.
Westlake Plastic Surgery has been serving patients in Austin for 25 years. The practice specializes in breast and nose surgeries. Caridi added, the practice does fewer types of surgeries but the ones they offer are done exceptionally well.
