Combined Rhinoplasty & Sinus Surgery
Dr. Nathan Nachlas is a nationally recognized nose specialist, with a unique, total approach to nose surgery in Boca Raton. A former Assistant Chief of Surgery at the world-renowned Johns Hopkins Hospital, the nation's top otolaryngology program, Dr. Nachlas is one of few surgeons to offer the "total nose" approach to rhinoplasty. This approach means sinus, breathing, and cosmetic issues may be corrected without the need for multiple surgeries. Approximately 80% of all procedures he performs involve rhinoplasty, septoplasty or sinus surgery, and more than half of those are combination procedures. Every one of his over 3,000 nose surgery patients undergoes a complete evaluation of the nose, including the external features, the septum, sinuses, and turbinates.
Many plastic surgeons only work on the exterior appearance of the nose, and many choose not to perform rhinoplasty at all due to the complexity of the procedure. Dr. Nachlas, on the other hand, is a highly sought after nose surgeon, and consistently receives referrals from ENTs and plastic surgeons for complex nasal surgeries. Dr. Nachlas wants each of his patients to be happy with both the appearance and the function of their nose, which is why so many of his procedures combine cosmetic rhinoplasty with sinus surgery.

Why Combine Procedures?
Dr. Nachlas specializes in rhinoplasty for Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, and West Palm Beach residents who want to change the appearance of their nose. Often, patients will seek out his services because they are unhappy with the way their nose looks, and are concerned about ongoing breathing or sinus issues. When Dr. Nachlas performs his thorough evaluation of the entire nose – both its exterior and interior features – he often finds that breathing and drainage can be significantly improved through functional surgery. The result is easier, more efficient breathing, improved comfort and health, and a nose that looks great.
Many patients come to Dr. Nachlas, the premier nose surgeon in the area, for advanced sinus surgery to fix breathing problems and chronic sinusitis. Typically this medically indicated surgery is at least partially covered by insurance. In cases where cosmetic concerns are also present, combining these procedures can result in a savings for the patient. Recovery time and discomfort are reduced by combining the functional and the cosmetic procedures into one surgery. And though combined procedures may take slightly longer to perform, the result is a much happier and healthier patient – Dr. Nachlas' ultimate goal.
