Natural-Looking Rhinoplasty, Designed for Your Face—Not Someone Else’s
What is Rhinoplasty?
Nasal surgery, also called a “nose job,” is a procedure designed to improve the shape, size, and contour of the nose. The nose frames the face and therefore plays a significat role in determining overall facial harmony. As a result, rhinoplasty is the most often procedure performed at Abramson’s Facial Plastic Surgery Center.
Peter Abramson, M.D. is double board certified from the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery or the American Board of Otolaryngology. He is a rhinoplasty expert and specialist who is highly skilled and experienced in both cosmetic (aesthetic) and functional (breathing) aspects of the procedure. This makes him the ideal choice when it comes to rhinoplasty surgery.

Cosmetic Nose Improvements:
- Reducing or increasing the size of the nose
- Changing the width of the bridge or the span of the nostrils
- Altering the shape of the nasal tip
- Smoothing out prominent bumps or depressions
- Correcting a crooked or asymmetrical nose
Functional and Corrective Nasal Procedures:
- Correcting a deviated septum to improve breathing
- Repairing structural issues caused by a birth defect, illness, or injury
- Straighten the septum to improve breathing
- Revision Rhinoplasty as a result of a previous rhinoplasty

Types of Rhinoplasty
Open or Closed Rhinoplasty Surgical Technique
Which Technique is Right For You?
The best technique for you depends on your individual needs and goals. During your consultation, Dr. Abramson will discuss your options and recommend the one that is most likely to achieve the desired results. Factors to consider include: The extent of the desired changes, your nasal anatomy, your budget, and your recovery preferences.
Open Rhinoplasty
This surgical technique uses an external incision across the columella—the tissue between the nostrils—to reshape the nose. By lifting the nasal skin, Dr. Abramson gains a full and unobstructed view of the underlying bone and cartilage, allowing for greater precision, especially in complex cases.
- Incisions are made on the underside of the nose, between the nostrils.
- Provides full access to the nasal structures, including bone, cartilage, and soft tissue.
- Allows for more extensive modifications, such as:
- Reducing the size of shape of the nose
- Correcting structual deformities
- Improving breathing difficulties
- Refining the nasal tip
- Revision Rhinoplasty (correcting a previous nose job)
Closed Rhinoplasty
Closed rhinoplasty involves making all incisions inside the nostrils, leaving no visible external scars. It is a less invasive technique that can improve both the cosmetic appearance, such as a dorsal hump or nasal tip, and functional issues like breathing difficulties.
Key Benefits:
- No external scars
- Faster Recovery
- Shorter procedure time
- Functional improvements such as airway obstruction or a deviated septum
- Less invasive because the nose is not fully exposed
