Nose Reconstruction with Dr. Carlos Camacho Bogota
Dr. Carlos Camacho offers professional nasal reconstruction services to clients in and around Bogota. Nasal reconstructive surgery is an invasive procedure aimed at refining and restoring the nasal form and function. It can help transform nasal abnormalities that may be due to congenital defects, physical altercations, injury, or other causes. Nasal reconstruction surgery should not be confused with nasal surgery (rhinoplasty), which is a cosmetic surgery meant to enhance the physical appearance of the nose.
Your nose is the centerpiece of your face, providing balance and harmony to the facial features. Without a well-balanced nose, your facial aesthetics will suffer. But it’s not just aesthetics you need to be concerned about. The nose is also connected to your respiratory system; any functional defects can be incredibly damaging to normal respiratory function.
The procedure is performed in-house and is headed by Dr. Carlos Camacho, Bogota’s most experienced professional in aesthetic surgical treatments. Our doctors will first evaluate your unique case in a consultation session and guide you about different surgical procedures accordingly. Depending on what we find, we will prescribe you a surgical treatment for the nose.
What Is Nasal Reconstruction?
Nasal reconstruction Bogota is a type of surgical procedure that helps treat congenital defects, trauma due to injury, or even the removal of cancer that may be impacting the form and function of your nose. Our expert team of nasal reconstruction surgeons will study the three-dimensional structure of the nose and provide you with a restorative treatment plan accordingly. In some cases, we may extend the reconstructive efforts to nearby cheeks, upper lips, or eyelids to bring harmony to the facial features.
Depending on the severity of your case, the surgeon may employ a variety of surgical techniques to correct the structure and form of your nose. These include skin grafts, cartilage grafts, sutures, and more.
The procedure is performed after the administration of general anesthesia and can last 2-4 hours, depending on the complexity of the defect. Smaller defects can be reconstructed in a single sitting, whereas larger defects may need multiple surgeries over several weeks. Following the nasal reconstruction, you must spend at least one day at the hospital, where we monitor your condition.
