Rhinoplasty, or cosmetic nasal surgery, is also referred to as a nose job, and it is a plastic surgery procedure that improves the shape and size of the nose. The procedure can remove a hump, change the shape of the nasal tip, and straighten the nose. Occasionally, the size and shape of the nostrils can be changed. The goal of the rhinoplasty surgery is often to achieve better harmony between the nose and the other facial features and, often times; even the slightest alteration can greatly improve a patient’s appearance.

Dr. Khalid will personally meet with you during the consultation. He will examine and evaluate you. He will then show you his idea and how the situation will be. This explanation will include what surgical technique he will use, where the surgery will be performed, what type of anesthesia, and a step-by-step explanation of what the recovery will be like. You will then meet with the patient care coordinator, who will explain the scheduling details and the cost.

Most patients that undergo the rhinoplasty procedure experience no pain only a mild pressure above the nose for about two hours after the procedure. From there on after, the patients do not experience any pain.

Patients are generally able to return to work about one week after the rhinoplasty
procedure.

If the rhinoplasty was performed via an open approach, the stitches will be removed on 5-7 days.

As with all types of surgery, there are potential risks or complications associated with rhinoplasty surgery and these may include bleeding, infection, and cosmetic imperfection.
We ensure a continual follow up of the patient from Dr.Khalid and his Team.

In general, most plastic surgeries are not covered by insurance.

Surgical removal of the tonsils and adenoids in children is performed for two primary reasons: recurrent tonsil/adenoid infections and snoring with associated sleep apnea. 

Tonsil infections:
As a general guideline, a tonsillectomy is recommended in patients with four tonsil infections in one year, as the bacteria will be endemic inside the tonsil.

Sleep apnea:
Enlargement of tonsil and adenoid tissue in children is the main course of airway Obst (Apnea). Children with sleep apnea typically are mouth breathers who snore loudly and can be heard to stop breathing or make gasping noises during sleep. Sleep apnea results in fragmented sleep that can lead to daytime fatigue or hyperactivity, failure to thrive, difficulties in concentrating, and occasional problems with bedwetting.

Surgical procedure:
Tonsils and adenoids are removed through the mouth with no external scars. In most children, this is outpatient surgery.

Snoring is a common problem that may occur alone or in combination with obstructive sleep apnea.

Primary snoring:
Snoring typically is caused by vibration of tissues within the Oropharynx. Nasal
obstruction can be another cause. In mild snoring, these measures may help: losing weight, sleeping on your side rather than your back, avoiding sedatives and alcohol.
Surgery can reduce the size of the soft tissue of uvula and palate, and also relieve nasal obstruction. Office turbinate surgery may also help to snore by
improving nasal breathing.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea:
Obstructive apnea is a cessation of breathing that last ten seconds or more. Repeated episodes can significantly disrupt sleep. Manifestations of sleep apnea include snoring, restless sleep, and daytime fatigue. Many advances have been made in the treatment of sleep apnea.
