Rhinophyma is the last stage of rosacea and marked by a severe thickening of the glands of the nose. It is commonly associated with excessive alcohol consumption, though is rarely the attributing cause in most cases. Many other factors create and exacerbate the condition (see Rosacea). Treatment of this condition can be life-changing for the client. With reshaping and sculpting, you can expect to have as close to, if not the regular nose shape you once had prior to the condition.

There is anesthesia for the treated area, which has an initial stinging sensation.

In addition, we use topical anesthetic and/or nerve blocks to alleviate discomfort and you will receive prescription pain medicine afterward to use if needed. Downtime ranges from ten days to two full weeks, and sometimes longer depending on the extent of the procedure. It is best for you to stay at home during the recovery period. Those with children will need help with the family for the first two to three days. Only one treatment is needed to see results.
