What Do Rhinoplasties Help With?
Rhinoplasties can have a variety of benefits by altering the size and shape of a nose while helping you achieve the appearance you’d like.
Along with cosmetic benefits, rhinoplasties can also help with chronic sinusitis and sleeping issues such as snoring and improving breathing, which can have various effects, from aiding sleep to improving performance during exercise.
Speak to a doctor to learn more about how a rhinoplasty can help you.
Will Rhinoplasty Affect Your Voice?
Studies have shown that reductive rhinoplasties have demonstrated an alteration in voice. Though some have noted changes, the extent of these changes has been noted as “subtle.”
These changes can be due to various factors and are not expected with every rhinoplasty. Depending on your procedure, from the desired outcome to the shape and size of your nasal passages, you may or may not expect vocal changes.
Ensure you speak to your doctor to understand if you should expect vocal changes.
