Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty at Dr. Cerrati's Park City practice addresses cosmetic and functional nasal concerns including bridge humps, bulbous or drooping tip, deviated septum, crooked nose, and nasal valve collapse. Open and closed techniques are offered based on case complexity. Variants include revision rhinoplasty, teenage rhinoplasty, male rhinoplasty, Asian and ethnic rhinoplasty, and non-surgical liquid rhinoplasty. Out-of-town patients attend virtual consultations before travelling for surgery.

Dr. Eric Cerrati's rhinoplasty practice in Park City, Utah draws patients from across the United States seeking fellowship-trained, specialist-level nasal surgery from a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon. His dual certification in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery provides anatomical depth that distinguishes his outcomes from general plastic surgeons — the same subspecialty combination that trained him to manage both cosmetic and functional nasal disease within one operative plan. The practice offers both open and closed rhinoplasty techniques. Open rhinoplasty uses a small incision across the columella, providing direct visualisation of the full nasal cartilaginous framework — preferred for complex tip reshaping, significant structural correction, or revision cases requiring cartilage grafting. Closed rhinoplasty keeps all incisions inside the nostrils, reducing external swelling and scarring for patients with more limited anatomical goals. Procedures routinely addressed include dorsal hump reduction through rasping or controlled osteotomy, tip refinement for bulbous, boxy, or drooping tips using suture techniques or cartilage modification, septoplasty for deviated septum correction, nasal bone osteotomies to straighten a crooked nose, and spreader graft placement for nasal valve collapse and internal valve insufficiency. Turbinate reduction is available as a functional adjunct where mucosal hypertrophy contributes to airflow obstruction. Specialty variants include revision rhinoplasty for patients dissatisfied with prior surgery, teenage rhinoplasty (performed after nasal growth is complete), male rhinoplasty that preserves a strong, gender-congruent nasal profile, Asian and ethnic rhinoplasty that works with individual anatomical characteristics and aesthetic values, and non-surgical rhinoplasty using dermal filler for temporary reshaping without downtime. Out-of-town patients attend a virtual consultation via FaceTime, Zoom, or Skype, submitting front, side, three-quarter, and base-angle photographs to info@drericcerrati.com in advance. A non-refundable deposit secures the surgical date. Patients typically arrive one to two days before surgery and remain in Park City for five to eight days post-operatively. Partner hotel rates are available at Pendry Park City, Little America, and Grand America, with private driving and night nursing services arranged through the practice. Bruising and swelling generally resolve within seven to ten days.
