“I could not be happier with my results! I love my new nose!”

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

Heather had a wonderful experience with her revision rhinoplasty performed by Dr. Spencer Cochran at the Gunter Center for Aesthetics and Cosmetic Surgery.

FEMALE VOICE: The reason that brought me here to Dr. Cochran’s office was that I’d had a rhinoplasty before and I wasn’t happy with the results from that. I also had continued problems with breathing and my sinuses. I also had worked with Dr. Cochran in the operating room and knew some of his work and how conscientious he was and that he was coming to work in a rhinoplasty practice.

So I came to him for a secondary rhinoplasty and revision of sinus surgery. I couldn’t be happier with my results. I feel, I love my new nose. I can breathe better. I can smell better. It looks better. Every person in this office treated me like I was part of the family, like I was a very important person, even from the receptionist telling me directions of how to get home in bad traffic, to Dr. Cochran, you know, calling to check on me the night before surgery and stuff like that. So overall my experience has been wonderful and I’m just so glad that I did it.

Male Rhinoplasty

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

DR. JACK P. GUNTER: A male nose is certainly different from female noses. And in general the male nose is a stronger looking nose than the females and it usually has a straight bridge. It’s got a tip that is more projecting than the female has and the length of the nose looks a little bit longer in an up and down direction. Whereas a female’s nose is more turned up, the tip is slightly more turned up, the bridge is lower, and the tip usually sticks out a little bit more than the bridge does, and in general looks a little bit softer. The main thing, though, in either a male or female nose is to keep it natural appearing and be sure that it’s functioning properly after the rhinoplasty.

Primary Rhinoplasty

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

DR. SPENCER COCHRAN: Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves reshaping the nose. It could be performed as a cosmetic procedure to improve the appearance or a medically necessary procedure to improve the breathing. Sometimes a combination of both is required. Primary rhinoplasty refers to first time nasal surgery, whether it be for cosmetic or functional reasons. This is accomplished by removing excess bone and cartilage from beneath the skin. After the newly shaped framework is completed the skin is re-draped to give the nose its new appearance. Sometimes the changes are dramatic or subtle, depending on the patients’ needs.

Dr. Spencer Cochran

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

FEMALE VOICE: Dr. Spencer Cochran is a highly respected rhinoplasty surgeon who was hand selected by Dr. Gunter for his knowledge and skill in all aspects of nasal surgery. Like Dr. Gunter, rhinoplasty is his passion and area of expertise. Board certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology and a member of the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Dr. Cochran embraces the most innovative, cutting edge techniques available in primary and secondary rhinoplasty. His focused background and surgical experience have allowed him to become a highly skilled rhinoplasty specialist.

DR. SPENCER COCHRAN: Ever since the beginning of my medical training I knew that I wanted to be a rhinoplasty surgeon. Rhinoplasty is one of the most difficult procedures in plastic surgery and in order to get consistent results you really have to dedicate yourself to that alone, and that’s what I’ve decided to do. But it, more than that it’s also the sense of satisfaction that I get from helping patients, being able to improve their breathing at the same time improving the appearance is very important. The two really go hand in hand, a nose that functions well should also look good and vice versa, and being able to correct those things together is very important.
