Enhance Your Beauty
Candidacy for Rhinoplasty
Age
Rhinoplasty is typically not performed until a patient has reached adulthood and the nose has fully developed.
Overall Health
Surgery is never recommended for patients that are in poor overall health or suffer from a serious illness.
Expectations
It is important that candidates for plastic surgery have realistic, clear expectations for the outcome of the procedure.
Recovery Time
Candidates must be able to take some time off of work to recover and limit strenuous physical activity in the weeks following surgery.
The Rhinoplasty Treatment Timeline
Rhinoplasty is typically an outpatient procedure. Most patients can return home to recover the very same day.
Customizing Surgery For Your Needs The Types of Rhinoplasty
Open Rhinoplasty
Open or external rhinoplasty involves a small incision across the strip of nasal tissue dividing the nostrils, referred to as a columellar incision. With open rhinoplasty, the surgeon has better visibility and access to the bone and cartilage. The procedure is usually chosen when revising complex nasal deformities or making more drastic changes to the bone structure. While the risk of cartilage distortion is minimal, there is a slight chance of visible scarring with external rhinoplasty.
Closed Rhinoplasty
With closed or endonasal rhinoplasty, Dr. Kishinevsky makes small incisions within the nose, where they will heal without visible scarring. This minimally invasive procedure is effective in achieving the desired results in most patients with straightforward cases. Due to the surgeon's visual limitations, the skin is prone to more intense stretching, which can result in cartilage distortion. However, the lack of a columellar incision allows for a faster operation and reduced swelling during the recovery period.

Absolutely fantastic. Dr. Kishinevsky and her staff, Lisa and Nikki, are wonderful. Dr. Kishinevsky was kind, thorough, and understanding. I was nervous about the procedure but she put my mind at ease and was so wonderful throughout the entire process and consistently checked in before and after. Her staff, Lisa and Nikki have also been fantastic. They're all so caring and courteous.
I'm just several weeks after my procedure but am already THRILLED with the results and can't wait to see how they continue to progress and improve.
Dr. K does wonderful work and I highly recommend her to anyone who wants a surgeon that not only does incredible work, but is a pleasure to work with as well. Thank you!!!
I went to a few consultations with different surgeons for my eyes and didn't really know what to expect. I was recommended to Dr. Kishinevsky by a few people and am glad I went in for a consult. I had a completely different experience in this office. She made me feel extremely comfortable and I could tell immediately she was very knowledgeable and highly skilled. She answered all my questions & made sure I had a realistic idea of what to expect with both my recovery and my results. She was very kind, understanding and patient. Her staff is wonderful too. I highly recommend Dr. Kishinevksy

Bandages
You will need to wear a splint and bandages to protect your nose while it begins to heal. After approximately one week, you will return to Dr. Kishinevsky's office to have the binding and nasal packing removed, as well as your progress evaluated.
Side Effects
You can expect some bruising, swelling, and tenderness in the weeks following your surgery. We can prescribe pain medication to help you with discomfort, especially in the first week.
Activity
While you should refrain from activities in which your nose could be traumatized in any way, you can resume light activity about a week after surgery. However, do not resume strenuous activity or exercise routines until given permission by the doctor. This permission is typically given around four to six weeks post-operation.
Results
While initial swelling from the procedure should fade within a few weeks, it may take up to a year before you see the final results of your surgery. This is especially true if you and Dr. Kishinevsky opt for an open-technique rhinoplasty. During the recovery period, you should notice gradual changes as the swelling continues to subside.
Aging can have an effect on the results of your procedure, but the changes made during rhinoplasty should remain relatively consistent as time passes. It is important to maintain proper sun protection and a healthy lifestyle to prevent changes to the new appearance of your nose.
How Much Does Rhinoplasty Cost?
The cost of rhinoplasty at our office in Norwalk, CT, will vary from patient to patient depending on the extent and difficulty of treatment.
It is impossible to give you a precise estimate until we see you for a consultation. Of course, it is important to remember that you pay for the experience and skill of your surgeon, and choosing a recognized expert like Dr. Kishinevsky is worth the investment to ensure the best results.
Financing Available
We offer financing and payment plans to help our patients afford plastic surgery.
Nonsurgical Alternatives
If you have only minor aesthetic concerns and do not feel ready for surgery, Dr. Kishinevsky may be able to help you reach your goals with nonsurgical alternatives. Our patients throughout Connecticut will often choose to improve the shape of their nose using dermal fillers. Fillers can be used to provide more symmetry to an area affected by injury or add dimension to a flattened nasal bridge or tip.
