Services
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose to improve appearance and/or function. This procedure addresses congenital deformities, post-trauma reconstruction, and aesthetic concerns through customized surgical plans. Patients benefit from Dr. Bartlett's 30+ years of experience and dual board certification in facial plastic surgery and otolaryngology.
Revision Rhinoplasty
Revision rhinoplasty corrects complications from prior nose surgeries. This complex procedure requires specialized expertise in reconstructive techniques using cartilage grafts and structural support. Dr. Bartlett's fellowship training and academic background ensure optimal functional and aesthetic outcomes for challenging revision cases.
Computer Imaging
Computer imaging creates realistic visualizations of potential surgical outcomes. This technology enables collaborative treatment planning by demonstrating achievable results while maintaining anatomical accuracy. Patients gain confidence through clear communication of surgical possibilities and limitations during pre-operative consultations.
Chin Augmentation
Chin augmentation improves facial balance through implant placement or bone modification. This complementary procedure often accompanies rhinoplasty to achieve harmonious profile aesthetics. Surgeons consider soft tissue dynamics and structural relationships to create natural, long-lasting results that enhance overall facial proportions.
Nasal Reconstruction
Nasal reconstruction addresses breathing difficulties caused by structural abnormalities. This functional surgery corrects valve collapse, septal deviations, and trauma-related deformities while maintaining aesthetic considerations. Techniques include cartilage grafting and structural support reinforcement to restore normal airflow and nasal function.
