The thought of undergoing rhinoplasty or any major surgery for that matter can be quite daunting. Aside from being put under, getting cut and being opened is tough for most people to even imagine. It becomes even more so because the body part involved with this procedure is quite a prominent feature of your face and rhinoplasty costs $6,000 or even more.

Unfortunately, not all rhinoplasty surgeries turn out to be successful. When this happens, it can lead to more corrective surgeries, bigger expense, or (although highly unlikely) a permanent disfiguration which can severely impact your life.

Nevertheless, rhinoplasty is not an uncommon procedure. In fact, it is considered one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries done in clinics. For those who have had successful rhinoplasty, they have nothing but appreciation and gratitude for the effects of rhinoplasty on their lives.

If you were wondering how a successful rhinoplasty can affect you, here are just five ways a rhinoplasty can change your life.

1. It can improve nasal airflow and breathing.

Although rhinoplasty surgeries are popularly done for aesthetic reasons, not all who undergo rhinoplasty surgeries do so just to make their noses look better. If your nose was injured during an accident or perhaps you were born with a nasal deformity, rhinoplasty can reconstruct the nose and improve airflow in your nasal cavity. This will help you breathe normally and improve overall circulation in your body. At the same time, regular airflow can decrease sinus infections brought about by frequent clogging and nasal congestion.

 

2. It can enhance sleep and other physical activities.

After rhinoplasty restores the regular flow of air through the nose, you will be able to sleep better. Since more air will be flowing through your nose and lungs, you will get enough oxygen during sleep. Improved airflow and sleep will then drastically increase your circulation and energy, allowing you to better participate in physical activities. Because of unimpeded airflow, you can move faster and last longer since more oxygen gets to reach your muscles.

 

3. It alleviates snoring.

Most people don’t realize that snoring is usually caused by difficulty in breathing. This is why others successfully stop themselves from snoring by simply shifting to a different sleeping position. However, if your nasal cavity is already impeded, then no amount of shifting during sleep will stop you from snoring.

 

Rhinoplasty can clear out your nasal passage and allow better flow of air during sleep. This should help decrease snoring whenever you doze off. Then just like any regular person, you can resort to readjusting your sleeping position whenever you notice that you’re still producing some sounds.

 

4. It will increase your self-confidence.

With the help of rhinoplasty, you can have the nose that you desire. If your nose is a source of insecurity for you, a rhinoplasty will help improve its shape and size, allowing you to feel more confident with it. There would be no need to cover up your nose or face a certain angle just to make your nose look less conspicuous.

With a better nose, you can pose and take photos any way you want. You will gradually feel better about yourself because you will like the way you look. Hopefully, this translates to you becoming more confident about yourself and improving your self-worth.

 

5. It improves personal relationships.

As a result of having increased self-confidence, rhinoplasty patients would often find themselves having an easier time talking to and establishing relationships with other people. Since they spend less time worrying about the way they look, they become better at listening and relating to others. They socialize more and form interpersonal bonds easily. Social skills improve, and social life becomes so much livelier.

 

6. It can improve your career.

You will notice many related benefits that will lead from having increased confidence and this may include a better performance at work. With more confidence, better social skills, and an improved look, you can get a second wind in work and earn yourself a shot at better appraisal reviews. It is in no way a guarantee that you will go up the corporate ladder but having increased confidence and being more self-assured will help you give a better impression and hopefully, deliver better results when it comes to your career.

 

Do not be fooled into thinking that having rhinoplasty surgery can improve your life. It may have results that will help you improve how you breathe, how you look, and how you feel about yourself – but the ultimate change it brings to your life is still up to you.
