Refining the Nasal Profile


Rhinoplasty Before and After Results
This patient’s rhinoplasty addressed a hanging nasal tip and a wide bump along the bridge. The result is a smoother profile and more refined tip that blends naturally with her facial features while maintaining balance from every angle.
In this video, Dr. David A. Sherris explains why successful rhinoplasty must address both the appearance of the nose and the way it functions. He discusses how correcting structural breathing issues alongside cosmetic concerns helps protect long-term results and avoid future complications. His perspective reflects decades of experience performing and teaching rhinoplasty around the world.
“My experience with Dr. Sherris was amazing. He’s a very nice guy, and the process was very straight forward. I had a rhinoplasty in March and my healing process was very easy and the results look better than i could’ve imagined.” — Kaitlyn, 5-Star Review
How Dr. Sherris
Approaches Rhinoplasty
Addressing Appearance and Breathing Together
Hear From a
New York Patient
This patient received a nose job from Dr. David Sherris, feeling very comfortable and confident after his consultation. Our rhinoplasty surgeon will not agree to any surgery without thoroughly going over your aesthetic options and expectations with you. This personalized aspect of Dr. Sherris' treatment is how he has gained a strong and loyal following across Buffalo, NY, the United States, Canada, and Europe.
Candidates for Rhinoplasty
Not everyone will be eligible for plastic surgery. Dr. Sherris will ensure that each of his New York patients are confident in their desire for nose surgery and that they meet the following qualifications:
Complete Facial Growth
Patients for rhinoplasty need to wait until they are done growing before undergoing a nose job. Patients typically finish growing in their mid-to-late teens. Our rhinoplasty surgeon will ensure you've finished growing before approving you for a nose job.
Non-Smoker
Smoking can interfere with your healing process post-surgery. Patients should quit smoking before undergoing nose surgery. Excessive alcohol consumption should also be limited to ensure a successful surgery and healing process.
Rhinoplasty Evaluation
Dr. Sherris will perform a full evaluation for not only cosmetic changes but will also examine the internal breathing structure. Many times rhinoplasty is combined with a septoplasty or valve surgery to address underlying breathing and structural issues. A successful nose breathes as well as it looks!
Realistic Expectations
At your consultation computer imaging will help show you the aesthetic changes that can be made. Dr. Sherris strives to meet the aesthetic goals of every patient but sometimes certain changes are not possible, as they can compromise structural breathing. It's important that goals meet realistic expectations. Understanding your unique possibilities is very important for a successful outcome.
