“My biggest recommendation for anyone considering “nose” surgery, whether for functional and/or cosmetic
reasons, is to only select an experienced and qualified surgeon who is BOTH an ENT AND a board certified
facial plastic surgeon. And if the surgeon only does noses, all the better! I have learned of too many
“nose” surgeries gone wrong where cosmetic changes negatively impacted functionality, and vice versa. I
highly recommend Dr. Gary Wiesman for ALL nose surgery.”

surgery.

Cosmetic rhinoplasty can change much more than the appearance of your nose – it can improve both
your social life and your self-esteem as well! Dr. Wiesman’s impressive credentials allow him to
make aesthetic changes with an expert touch. During your complimentary cosmetic consultation,
you can discuss altering the size of your nose, the width, the profile, the nasal tip, the
angle, the nostrils, any noticeable asymmetry, and much more.

you’re looking for, you’ve come to the right place! Our team at Wiesman Nasal & Sinus is
experienced, knowledgeable, caring, and always ready to help you get the answers you need. Below, we’ve
compiled some of the most commonly asked questions that we receive from people in Chicago who are considering
seeing a facial plastic surgeon that can address both aesthetic and functional concerns. If you still have any
lingering questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our team so we can provide the answers you
need.
What are some types of facial plastic surgery?
There are countless procedures that are included under the term “facial plastic surgery,”
most of which Dr. Gary Wiesman
performs in Chicago! Here are some types of specialized facial plastic surgery procedures that we offer:
Rhinoplasty,
which is a surgery to reshape and enhance the nose.
Revision
Rhinoplasty, which is the name for a “nose job” procedure performed
on someone who has had a rhinoplasty in the past. It is performed to correct or improve the
appearance of the nose and/or correct problems with breathing (nasal obstruction) that resulted from
a previous nose surgery.
Otoplasty, or the
correction of large, misshapen, or protruding ears.
Earlobe
repair, which fixes torn, enlarged, or split earring holes.
Eyelid
surgery, which is where excess skin or fat from the eyelids is removed.
Chin
implant, for a more balanced and symmetrical facial appearance.
BOTOX®, which
addresses facial lines and wrinkles.
Do facial plastic surgeons charge for consultations?
Since consult fees are entirely at the discretion of the facial plastic surgeon, they vary significantly.
In general, consultation fees range from $75 to $250. Dr. Gary Wiesman offers FREE cosmetic
consultations to discuss your concerns and your aesthetic goals. He will create a personalized plan
using the latest treatments and techniques to help you look your best.
How many facial plastic surgeons are in Chicago?
There are only a handful of facial plastic surgeons in the Chicago area, and among those are many general
plastic surgeons. Dr. Wiesman is a “face” expert, who has spent decades honing his skills in
performing procedures that are specific to the face, head, and neck area. He began his career as an
otolaryngologist and advanced his education to become a facial plastic surgeon as well. This specialized
training provides him with the tools and techniques to offer treatments that address aesthetics as well
as function and health.
Is facial plastic surgery safe?
News coverage of complications after plastic surgery often do not give the real story of what happened
and why. Commonly, doctors who are not board certified in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, but who
call themselves plastic surgeons or cosmetic surgeons, may be responsible for poor cosmetic outcomes.
Dr. Gary Wiesman, who is double board certified in Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery and
Otolaryngology, is a strong believer that patient safety must come first when considering a surgical
procedure. He will review your medical history with you in detail to minimize potential complications.
At what age can I get facial plastic surgery?
Many of the procedures that Dr. Wiesman offers can benefit a patient’s health as well as address
cosmetic concerns they have, which is why we don’t typically put an age on when someone should
consider facial plastic surgery. For example, in childhood, deformed ears are an easy target for taunts
and bullying, and it’s not unusual for our office to see children for a surgical option to put an
end to the teasing. That’s why we recommend scheduling a consultation to find out whether
you’re a good candidate for any of the procedures we offer.
Is it worth it to get a nose job?
Many of our patients toss around the idea of getting a nose job for years before they finally schedule a
consultation, because they wonder whether the procedure is actually worth it. Our recommendation would
be, if you’ve been considering getting a nose job and feel as though you would benefit from the
procedure, schedule a FREE cosmetic consultation with Dr. Wiesman to learn more. Patients who do meet
with Dr. Wiesman and then go through with the procedure tell us that the results were definitely
worthwhile!
