Are You Unhappy with Your Nose? Is it too large” Too small” Is your nose crooked” Perhaps you have a hump in the bridge of your nose.  If you're unhappy with your nose, you have probably thought about having rhinoplasty, the medical term for what is commonly called "nose reshaping" or a "nose job." And, you're not alone'some 300,000 people have nose reshaping procedures each year. In fact, it is the second most popular plastic surgery procedure in the United States. The authors of Your Complete Guide to Nose Reshaping are respected facial cosmetic surgeons who have performed thousands of rhinoplasties. They understand your concerns and the questions you have as you anticipate surgery. Among the questions they answer:
 
            “  How do you choose the right surgeon?
            “  Are you a candidate for nose reshaping?
            “  What kind of anesthesia is used during surgery?
            “  Will you have pain after the surgery?
            “  Will your nose be bandaged” If so, how long?
            “  How soon can you resume work and physical exercise?
 
            This book contains 65 color photos, including dozens of "before and after" photos of patients who have had rhinoplasty. A resource section, glossary, and index are also included.
