Dr. Zhuravsky, a rhinoplasty expert, discusses the important keys to achieving great rhinoplasty results. As an expert surgeon who performs both primary and revision surgeries, Dr. Z has determined that there are several key aspects that are of critical importance, and if not respected can lead to poor results.
Dr. Zhuravsky explains why the consultation is one of the most important parts of the rhinoplasty and what patients should expect from a good quality surgeon. The consultation is the only time that patients can really have any influence on their outcomes. This is when they can discuss their changes with the surgeon and see if they are truly understood. They can also assess whether the surgeon seems to know how to achieve their desired results, and if they are willing to dedicate the effort.
Dr. Z discusses the most common fears that seem to hold back patients from proceeding with Rhinoplasty, and why they regret letting these fears hold them back once they actually go through with surgery.
Patient are afraid of 3 main issues:
Dr. Zhuravsky, a rhinoplasty expert, explains why the concept of “breaking” the noses is misleading.
The entire nose is NOT being broken in the common understanding of the words. In realty, we are making small and precise cuts in the bones in order to adjust their appearance.
The nasal bones are a small part of the nose overall, making up only the upper 1/3rd of the nose. Most of the hard work in rhinoplasty involves cartilage, which does not have to be broken. The nasal bones are thin but like all bone they are ridge. We make these fine cuts in order to preform the necessary adjustments, usually moving the nasal bones inward. An important point of caution is to avoid collapsing the nasal bones too far inward, resulting a very unnaturally thin upper nose.

The “bone breaking” part of rhinoplasty is what patients seem to fear the most from rhinoplasty surgery. HOWEVER, it is not exactly what you may imagine it to be. What really happens, is that precise CUTS are made along the edges of the bones, in order to shape them. The purpose of this is to move the bones into a cosmetically favorable position that will make the nose look great as a whole.
Join Dr. Zhuravsky, a leading expert in facial plastic surgery, as he sheds light on the increasing prevalence of revision rhinoplasty and the critical factors to consider when undergoing this complex procedure. In this insightful discussion, Dr. Zhuravsky underscores the inherent challenges of rhinoplasty surgery and emphasizes the importance of selecting a highly skilled surgeon with extensive experience in both primary and revision rhinoplasties.
In this educational video, Dr. Zhuravsky demystifies the distinctions between septoplasty and rhinoplasty, two commonly misunderstood nasal surgeries. With the help of a specialized model, Dr. Zhuravsky provides a clear visual explanation without graphic surgical content. He begins by defining rhinoplasty as the surgical procedure focused on altering the shape and appearance of the nose, involving changes to the nasal bones and cartilages.
Dr. Zhuravsky, an expert in rhinoplasty procedures, shares insights into the multifaceted goals of rhinoplasty beyond simply fulfilling patients’ dreams of their ideal nose. While patient satisfaction is paramount, Dr. Zhuravsky emphasizes the importance of achieving aesthetic harmony by ensuring that the new nose complements the patient’s facial features. During consultations, careful consideration is given to facial proportions to ensure a natural and balanced appearance.
Join Dr. Zhuravsky, a leading expert in revision rhinoplasty, as he discusses the most frequent challenges encountered and addressed in revision surgeries. Drawing from extensive experience, Dr. Zhuravsky sheds light on common issues such as the overly narrowed bridge, often resulting from inadequate support after bridge reduction. He explains the corrective measures involving spreader grafts and cartilage reinforcement to restore both aesthetic balance and nasal function.
A very common question is whether a lip lift can be done at the same time as a rhinoplasty. This is because the two areas are in close proximity and both have an important role in central facial aesthetics. Additionally, noses that are turned downward can obscure the top lip and cast a shadow. When these noses are rotated to neutral or slightly up, the full length of the lip becomes more visible, and in some people it may appear to be long.
In this informative video, Dr. Zhuravsky elucidates the complexities of addressing the dorsal hump during rhinoplasty procedures. With meticulous detail, he explains why even seemingly minor humps require careful attention and precise techniques for optimal outcomes. Using a magnified model, Dr. Zhuravsky illustrates the delicate balance between removing excess bone and cartilage while preserving structural integrity. He emphasizes the importance of creating strategic breaks in the nasal bones to prevent an “open roof” deformity and discusses the challenges of handling cartilage, including the risk of collapse and functional issues.

In this video, we delve into the intricacies of Alarplasty or nostril reduction surgery, a common procedure performed alongside rhinoplasties. Dr. Zhuravsky shares insights into the techniques involved, emphasizing the importance of precision and attention to detail. By delicately removing excess skin from the edges of the nose, while preserving the natural crease, Dr. Zhuravsky achieves aesthetically pleasing results.
