Achieving flawless, natural-looking plastic surgery results requires surgeons to stay abreast of the latest tools and techniques. That’s why Dr. Barrera uses cutting-edge ultrasonic rhinoplasty technology to achieve only the most precise results for his patients.
How Do We Incorporate Structure With Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty?
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that uses high-frequency ultrasonic waves to accurately sculpt the nasal bones and cartilage into the precise shape you desire.
When performing preservation rhinoplasty, ultrasonic technology is highly beneficial because of the precision the technique offers, which leaves much of your original nose structure untouched. Dr. Barrera uses this device to carefully remove bone and cartilage without the use of conventional tools like chisels and rasps, which alleviates much of the swelling, bleeding, and additional trauma associated with traditional rhinoplasty techniques.
Preservation and Ethnic Rhinoplasty
Many of Dr. Barrera’s patients seek preservation rhinoplasty to correct perceived imperfections with their noses, but they do not want their surgery to change their ethnic identity or make them look like a different person. Preserving your unique heritage with rhinoplasty requires the surgeon to understand the specific nasal characteristics of each ethnicity, which includes accounting for differences in skin thickness and strength, nasal cartilage contours, and nostril size.
Dr. Barrera understands you are proud of your heritage and want to celebrate it. By listening to each patient’s desires, he can reshape your nose in harmony with the rest of your facial features for an ideal result.
