Each patient is unique and individual results may vary*
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure designed to improve the shape or function of the nose. This versatile surgery can be performed for both cosmetic and medical reasons, with the goal of enhancing the appearance of the nose or improving breathing function.
For patients seeking aesthetic changes, rhinoplasty can reshape the nose to better complement facial features. This may involve reducing the size of the nose, narrowing the nostrils, or correcting asymmetries. A cosmetic rhinoplasty is tailored to each individual’s unique facial structure, ensuring natural-looking results that enhance overall facial harmony.
In addition to cosmetic benefits, rhinoplasty can also address structural issues that affect breathing. A common example is a deviated septum, which can obstruct airflow. Functional rhinoplasty is designed to correct these issues, improving both the form and function of the nose. In some cases, insurance may cover part of the procedure if it’s deemed medically necessary.

Rhinoplasty is ideal for individuals seeking to improve the appearance or function of their nose. Whether for cosmetic enhancement or to address breathing issues, this procedure can provide significant benefits. Here’s what makes a good candidate for rhinoplasty:
Rhinoplasty is perfect for those unhappy with the size, shape, or symmetry of their nose. It can:
If you struggle with breathing due to a deviated septum or nasal obstructions, rhinoplasty can correct these issues and improve airflow, enhancing both appearance and function.
Good candidates should:
Your rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia, ensuring your comfort. Dr. Diaz uses incisions made inside the nostrils to avoid any visible scarring. After surgery, you’ll be transferred to our on-site recovery room, where your family can join you. Our attentive staff will monitor your progress and provide detailed aftercare instructions before you head home.
Most visible swelling subsides within 4 weeks. Your nose will continue to refine and settle into its final shape during this time. Be patient, as the full results of your rhinoplasty may take 12-18 months to fully manifest.
Dr. Diaz’s preferred approach is the “closed approach” since it utilizes scars made inside of the nose. The scars can not be seen in this position and it is why his technique is referred to as the “Invisible Rhino.”
In Los Angeles, rhinoplasty costs typically start at $10,000 and increase above that depending on the surgeon’s expertise and the complexity of the procedure. This reflects Dr. Diaz’s extensive experience and our fully accredited surgical facility. Remember, investing in a skilled surgeon often leads to better results and can help avoid costly revisions. We offer flexible financing options to help make payments more manageable for your budget.
Avoid resting glasses on your nose for 3-4 weeks post-surgery for best results. During this time, you can use tape to attach your glasses to your forehead or opt for contact lenses instead. After 3-4 weeks, you can gradually reintroduce wearing glasses, starting with short periods and increasing as comfort allows.
Light activity can resume after 1-2 weeks, but avoid strenuous exercise for about 4 weeks. This includes avoiding activities that increase blood pressure to your face, such as bending over or lifting heavy weights. Always listen to your body and Dr. Diaz’s specific instructions for your case.
Temporary changes may occur due to swelling, but your smile should return to normal within a few months. Some patients may notice slight changes in upper lip movement, but this typically resolves as swelling decreases and tissues settle.
Most patients return to work after 2 days if they work remotely and 7 days if they work in an office. If your job involves physical labor or being in the public eye, you might need more time off. Dr. Diaz will provide personalized recommendations based on your specific procedure and recovery progress.
If snoring is due to nasal obstruction, rhinoplasty combined with septoplasty may help. However, not all snoring is caused by nasal issues. A thorough evaluation is necessary to determine if rhinoplasty could potentially improve your snoring.
Rhinoplasty recovery is much easier than people think. In general, it is not a painful procedure. In fact, most patients will report that the recovery is similar to having a cold. There will be stuffiness of the nose, along with some discomfort around the nose, but pain is rarely reported. Medications will be prescribed to manage any discomfort, and many patients find that over-the-counter pain relievers are sufficient after the first few days
Yes, rhinoplasty is often combined with procedures like chin augmentation or neck liposuction to enhance the overall facial balance. Combining procedures can often lead to synergistic results. Dr. Diaz can discuss which combination of procedures will work best for you.
Rhinoplasty is generally safe and potential risks are the same as for any other cosmetic surgery. Choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon reduces these risks significantly.
Most swelling improves within a few weeks. Patients often look very good and can socialize, appear in videos and take pictures at around 1 month. However, the final refined shape and details of the nose can take 6–12 months to resolve
Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure maximum comfort and safety.
Most patients breathe normally after healing, and many actually experience improved airflow if functional issues were corrected during surgery.
Internal swelling gradually improves over several months, with full resolution often taking up to a year.
Yes, rhinoplasty can be combined with septoplasty to straighten the septum and address structural issues that cause breathing difficulties.
Rhinoplasty is typically recommended once facial growth is complete. However, in special circumstances, rhinoplasties can be performed at around age 15–16 for girls and 16–17 for boys—though the ideal timing depends on individual anatomy and goals.
