Rhinoplasty was one of the first episodes that I sketched out when I was contemplating starting the podcast, but I am just now sitting down to hit record. I wanted to make sure that I had a robust presentation and thorough examination of one his favorite operations. It turned into a case of "paralysis by analysis", not wanting to really record the episode until all the details were perfect.  As it happens, one of the shows I wanted to do first hadn't been done after 10 shows.  What follows is a good rhinoplasty overview, but not the broad scope of the operation I'd planned - including the history of the surgery, famous cases, etc.  Those will have to come later.

In this episode, we cover how rhinoplasty is one of the earliest, and most popular, cosmetic procedures. Given its popularity it is important to iron out some of the “why's” behind choosing rhinoplasty. I discuss the importance of facial balance, how we see the face in “thirds”, and other keys to making an rhinoplasty blend well. I break down the different kinds of rhinoplasty, the important lingo, and more to help you better understand rhinoplasty as a whole.
