Specialization in Nasal Surgery

Dr. Vione performs preservation rhinoplasty. This technique respects the natural anatomy of the nose. It results in a natural look and a shorter recovery period. The physician treats several specific conditions:

• Deviated septum — a condition where the wall between the nostrils is displaced, making breathing difficult
• Sleep apnea
• Nasal polyps

He performs various surgical procedures to restore function and appearance:

• Open and closed rhinoplasty
• Revision rhinoplasty
• Tip rhinoplasty
• Osteotomy rhinoplasty — a procedure where the nasal bones are cut to reshape the nose
• Septoplasty
