A Top Plastic Surgeon

WHO OFFERS MINIMALLY INVASIVE ULTRASONIC RHINOPLASTY

Fairfield County Rhinoplasty provider, Dr. David Passaretti developed his state-of-the-art technique combining twenty years of experience and the latest technological advances. He is one of a select few plastic surgeons in Darien, CT, and all of Connecticut who offers minimally invasive scarless rhinoplasty using the latest harmonic piezoelectric technology. Traditional open rhinoplasty, the kind most surgeons still use, is performed with incisions in the skin and osteotomes—surgical chisels and hammers that allow plastic surgeons to modify bone tissue.

These techniques, which have not changed in over fifty years, are effective but lead to large amounts of swelling and long recovery times. The additional scarring from skin incisions and the poor control provided by blunt chisels can lead to an all too common operated-on or overdone look. But with Harmony™, the minimally invasive ultrasonic rhinoplasty (also known as microrhinoplasty), Dr. Passaretti uses much smaller ultrasonic tools to perform microrhinoplasty surgery. These piezoelectric tools use harmonic vibrations to precisely alter the bone and cartilage in your nose without harming surrounding tissue. He performs these techniques through tiny incisions located entirely inside your nose. This means no visible scarring, less recovery, faster healing, and a more natural harmonious look.

Open vs. Closed Surgery

There are two different rhinoplasty techniques: open and closed. While both can achieve similar results, and Connecticut Rhinoplasty provider, Dr. Passaretti's final recommendation will ultimately depend on your aesthetic goals and the natural shape of your nose, the closed rhinoplasty technique offers distinct advantages due to the minimal disruption of normal tissue. During closed rhinoplasty, he will create tiny incisions inside your nostrils. In open rhinoplasty, he will place the incision across the columella, the strip of tissue that separates the nostrils.

Technique Personalized to Your Needs

Although, Harmony™, the ultrasonic closed rhinoplasty is a more complex procedure, Fairfield County rhinoplasty surgeon, Dr. Passaretti typically prefers this option since it eliminates visible scarring. However, since open rhinoplasty allows him to easily access more tissue, he may recommend this procedure if you require more extensive correction.

“Our daughter had rhinoplasty surgery with Dr. Passaretti this past month. She is so happy with the outcome. He did an amazing job and it looks just like she pictured it would. The procedure was seamless, and he really listened to her and what her expectations were. The whole team at his practice was wonderful!”

“I had a revision rhinoplasty from another unfortunate injury. He did exactly what I communicated with him to do and what was doable yet created a wonderful result, without risking anything from previous surgeries from another surgeon. I took the travel time from Massachusetts as I know he is the best in the business, an artist. He has a wonderful compassionate personality and wants his patients at ease. Not only is his work impeccable. But he has a kind and compassionate demeanor the makings of an all around wonderful surgeon. These surgeons are very busy and deal with a lot of. Yet he maintains such professionalism and compassion. I needed an altercation due to another injury . The doctor and his staff were amazingly professional and kind. I felt so at ease. I never felt so comfortable in my whole life with a surgeon. He is the man. He is just so skilled, again, an artist. My surgery was done again due to an accident not by choice. A true accidental accident by someone, a freak occurrence. They felt horrible but I was in the best of hands with Dr. Passaretti.”

I couldn't be more happy with my Rhinoplasty results. Dr Passeretti truly had hands from God. I have NO problem referring anyone I know with full confidence to him.
