The goal of nose surgery ('rhinoplasty') is to create a natural looking nose which is harmonious with the other features on the face. There are many technical aspects to getting a good result, but the most important element is agreement between the patient and the surgeon on the intended appearance of the nose. We feel that computer imaging is the best way to give patients a clear impression of the intended results. Computer "morphing" during the consultation allows patients to see alternatives and have input into the creative process. When patients help plan their procedures they are much more likely to be happy with the results. The days of "trust me, I'm the doctor and know what looks good" are over. We strive to make noses look good but not "operated on". There is a fine line between a very good nose and a nose that is overdone.

To help you visualize what effect nose surgery would have on your image, Dr. Brink uses computer imaging. Used properly, computer imaging can be a very accurate predictor of surgical outcomes. It allows patients to see the expected results of surgery before having the operation. A picture is worth a thousand words and computer imaging is an efficient way to help patients decide whether the likely result is worth the cost and discomfort of surgery.
