Why Atlantans Choose Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery for Rhinophyma Treatment

Kalos is not a general dermatology clinic. We are a boutique facial plastic surgery practice focused solely on the face. Our team combines surgical mastery with an artistic eye, ensuring that every patient not only receives effective treatment but leaves with a result that looks natural and harmonious.

Our Atlanta-based patients benefit from:

  • Highly specialized care for complex cases of rhinophyma and rosacea
  • Minimally invasive techniques that reduce downtime and scarring
  • Confidential, judgment-free consultations with a supportive team
  • Personalized treatment plans designed to meet functional and cosmetic goals

We serve a wide area of metro Atlanta, including Sandy Springs, Decatur, Brookhaven, and beyond. With over 25,000 dermatological procedures performed annually across Georgia, it’s crucial to choose a provider with specific expertise in facial reconstructive work — and Kalos is that trusted name.

Understanding Rhinophyma: A Local Health Concern

Rhinophyma most commonly affects men over 50, and Atlanta’s warm, humid climate can exacerbate rosacea symptoms. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, approximately 16 million Americans suffer from rosacea, with a significant number experiencing severe progression without early intervention.

In the greater Atlanta area, dermatologists report increased cases of rosacea-related disorders due to climate, pollution, and stress. Kalos offers a lifeline to those whose skin conditions have resisted standard treatments.

Comprehensive Rhinophyma Treatment Options in Atlanta

At Kalos, we offer a full suite of treatment modalities tailored to the severity and structure of your rhinophyma:

  • CO2 Laser Resurfacing: Targets vascular and textural changes, with minimal tissue damage.
  • Scalpel Excision: Used in moderate to advanced cases, allowing precise contouring.
  • Electrosurgery: Offers bloodless removal of excess tissue, improving recovery time.
  • Dermabrasion: Often combined with other methods to refine results and texture.

All procedures are performed in our fully accredited surgical suite in Buckhead, with post-op care managed closely by our in-house staff. We’re known for helping patients achieve significant transformations with lower complication rates and higher patient satisfaction.

Our Patients Love Us!

Three weeks ago, four days before a large party to celebrate my 20th anniversary and 50th birthday, I went to my dermatologist to get a “small” basil cell carcinoma removed from the end of my nose. The spot in question was only a couple of millimeters in diameter, so I assumed that was about what they would remove. The Mohs surgery was scheduled for 8am, so I thought I would be back at work before lunch with a couple of stiches. After the second pass, they got all of the cancer, but I was left with a hole at the end of my nose a little larger than a nickel. The dermatologist did not think a simple skin graft would yield a satisfactory result and referred me to Dr. Stong. Dr. Stong worked me in that same afternoon and rebuilt my nose using some cartilage from my ear and folding down a skin flap from the bridge of my nose. He worked me in again the day before the party and fixed my ear where it was barely noticeable so the party was able to go forward with only a band aid on my nose. Two days later, he removed the stiches from my nose. While I still have a little swelling, and I’m following his instructions to reduce/prevent scarring, I’m amazed at the result he was able to achieve. I am confident that in the end, no one will ever guess I had such a large chunk of my nose missing. I am very glad that Dr. Stong is as skilled as he is, and I would highly recommend him to anyone in a similar situation.

Dr. Stong did an amazing job. I had an eyebrow lift, eyelids, face and neck lift. It’s only been 3.5 weeks and I am thrilled with the new me already! He is highly qualified and I recommend him without hesitation. He and his office staff are professional, available and eager to make your experience a positive one.
