Rhinoplasty


Rhinoplasty (also known as a Nose Job) is a popular cosmetic procedure that involves restructuring the nose to improve its appearance. Rhinoplasty may also be used to improve airflow for patients with a deviated septum or other issues that may restrict proper breathing. Due to the nose being the central focal point of the face, altering the shape of the nose can greatly improve overall facial balance and harmony.

Features & Benefits

Improved Nasal Function

Rhinoplasty can address structural issues that affect nasal function, such as a deviated septum, enlarged turbinates, or other obstructions that impede airflow. Functional rhinoplasty can improve breathing and alleviate issues like chronic congestion, snoring, and sleep apnea. Patients often experience improved overall nasal airflow and a better quality of life.

Correction of Trauma or Congenital Deformities

Rhinoplasty can correct deformities resuilting from trauma, accidents, or congenital conditions. This includes repairing broken noses, addressing nasal asymmetry, and restoring a more natural and functional shape to the nose. The procedure can greatly enhance the patients appearance and self-esteem in cases where the nose has been altered due to injury or genetic factors.

Enhanced Aesthetic Appearance

Aesthetic rhinoplasty is focused on improving the appearance of the nose to create a more harmonious balance with other facial features. It can address a variety of concerns, including the size, shape, proportion, and symmetry of the nose. By creating a more attractive and balanced nasal appearance, rhinoplasty can boost self-confidence and improve the overall facial aesthetic.

Psychological and Emotional Benefits

For individuals who have been self-conscious about their nasal appearance or have struggled with breathing difficulties, rhinoplasty can lead to significant psychological and emotional benefits. Improving the appearance of the nose can lead to increased self-esteem and a more positive self-image. Likewise, resolving breathing issues can enhance overall quality of life and reduce feelings of frustration or discomfort.

1

What is rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure that aims to reshape or resize the nose to enhance its appearance or improve its function. It can address concerns such as nasal asymmetry, a hump on the bridge of the nose, a bulbous or drooping nasal tip, or breathing difficulties due to structural issues.

2

Are there any risks or complications associated with rhinoplasty?

As with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with rhinoplasty. These can include infection, bleeding, adverse reaction to anesthesia, asymmetry, scarring, changes in sensation, difficulty breathing, or dissatisfaction with the results. It is important to discuss these potential risks with your surgeon and follow their pre- and post-operative instructions to minimize complications.

3

Can rhinoplasty be combined with other procedures?

Yes, rhinoplasty can be combined with other procedures if desired. It is common for patients to combine rhinoplasty with procedures such as septoplasty (correction of a deviated septum), chin augmentation, or other facial surgeries to achieve a more balanced and harmonious overall appearance.

4

What is the recovery process like after rhinoplasty?

After rhinoplasty, patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort around the nose and eyes. Nasal congestion and stuffiness are also common. A splint or cast may be placed on the nose to support its new shape during the initial healing period. Most people can return to work or school within 1 to 2 weeks, but it may take several months for the final results to fully manifest as swelling subsides.
