RHINOPLASTY
What is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a "nose job," is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose to improve its appearance or function. It can address a wide range of concerns, from altering the size or shape of the nose to correcting breathing issues caused by structural abnormalities. Rhinoplasty can enhance facial balance, bringing out the natural harmony of your features.
Types of Rhinoplasty
Cosmetic Rhinoplasty:
Focuses on enhancing the nose’s appearance, such as refining the tip, reducing a hump, or narrowing the nostrils.
Functional Rhinoplasty:
Addresses structural issues that affect breathing, such as a deviated septum or collapsed nasal valves
Revision Rhinoplasty:
Corrects or improves the results of a previous rhinoplasty.
Septorhinoplasty:
Combines cosmetic and functional improvements, often addressing both the external shape and the internal nasal passages.

How Can Rhinoplasty Improve My Appearance?
Rhinoplasty can enhance both facial aesthetics and overall well-being. Here’s what it can help achieve
01 Improved Nose Shape
Refines the nasal tip, bridge, or nostrils, creating a more balanced and proportionate appearance.
02 Enhanced Facial Harmony
Brings symmetry to facial features, helping the nose complement other aspects of the face.
03 Better Breathing
Corrects functional issues, such as a deviated septum, to improve airflow and respiratory function.
04 Boosted Confidence
Helps you feel more confident and satisfied with your appearance.
Rhinoplasty Procedure Details
Rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia and typically lasts 2-4 hours, depending on the complexity of the procedure. Incisions are made either inside the nostrils (closed rhinoplasty) or across the columella (open rhinoplasty), allowing for access to the nasal structure for reshaping and correction.
Recovery and Follow-up
After rhinoplasty, you may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort around the nose and eyes, which will subside over time. It’s important to avoid pressure on the nose and limit strenuous activities for a few weeks to promote optimal healing.
Immediate Follow-up:
5-7 days post-surgery for suture removal (if needed).
Long-term Follow-up:
Check-ins at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year to monitor healing and ensure desired results.
