Rhinophyma Before & After Case 637

Our patient, 71, sought care for rhinophyma to address changes in the appearance and contour of his nose. He had experienced gradual thickening and bulbous changes over time, which can result from this chronic skin condition. His goal was to restore a more balanced and natural nasal appearance.

Following surgery, the patient noticed improvements in the shape and surface texture of his nose. Postoperative photos show a reduction in bulk, better definition, and a return to a more natural nasal contour. This case highlights a common reason why individuals seek treatment for rhinophyma.

From Our Patient | How I feel about my results: "Terrific - less self conscious about skin condition."
