Pinched Nose
A pinched nose is most commonly associated with previous nose job surgery where excessive amounts of cartilage where removed from the tip of the nose. The nasal tip looses it’s structural support and collapses, leading to a pinched appearance. This problem is less commonly noted in patients with genetically weak nasal tip cartilages. A pinched nose impedes airflow through the nostrils and causes nasal obstruction
Solutions
Surgical
Pinched Nose
Open or closed rhinoplasty can be used, depending on the location of the pinched appearance and the procedures performed.
- To widen the bridge, cartilage grafts (known as spreader grafts) can be placed to open the middle vault of the nose, to improve the appearance and breathing function.
- For a pinched tip, cartilage grafts (known as alar strut grafts) can support the tip and resolve the pinched appearance.

Words can not express my gratitude for his amazing life-changing work.
I had a tonsillectomy and a Neck Lump removal done on the same day.
Everything that you ever heard or read about tonsillectomy, is a dramatic over-exaggeration of people who can NOT tolerate pain.
I was so ready for a long misery and stressful recovery... Pffttt , turned out to be a really easy experience.
Dr. Khosh did an amazing job!!! Also taking in to consideration that I had 2 surgeries performed on the same day. I was out walking my dogs on day 2. Day 3 Walking dogs, doing some shopping and cooking... day 4 5 and 6 you get the picture. 0 limitations, just listened to my body and didnt overwork myself.
Just want to tell anyone and everyone who is either thinking of or NEEDS to have adult tonsillectomy done - Please don't even think twice. You get a perfect dose of painkillers, and they can solve all your pain-needs.
Dr.Khosh has an amazing warm and friendly personality, with a heart of gold and superb skills.
Susan - my comforting shoulder, and Christine - always happy and positive to brighten your day. I am forever grateful .
