What is Rhinoplasty?
Reshape, Redefine, Rejuvenate.
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure aimed at altering the shape, size, or appearance of the nose. It is one of the most popular cosmetic surgical procedures worldwide. The goals of rhinoplasty may vary from enhancing facial harmony to improving breathing function or addressing congenital, traumatic, or age-related changes in the nose.
Process & Techniques
Rhinoplasty can be performed using different surgical techniques, such as open rhinoplasty and closed rhinoplasty.
✓ Open Rhinoplasty : The surgeon selects the most suitable rhinoplasty technique, taking into account the patient’s individual condition and expectations. This is crucial to achieve the best results. By identifying the most effective and appropriate techniques based on the patient’s anatomical structure and desires, the surgeon provides a personalized approach.
✓ Close Rhinoplasty : The procedure is performed from within the nostrils, leaving no visible external incisions, providing an aesthetic advantage, and due to less tissue manipulation, the recovery process is typically faster.
Recovery & Results
After rhinoplasty, patients typically experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort. It may take several weeks to months for the initial swelling to subside and for the final results to become apparent. Full recovery can take up to a year, during which patients are advised to follow post-operative care instructions diligently. The final results of rhinoplasty can enhance the overall facial appearance and improve self-confidence, meeting the expectations set during preoperative consultations. However, it’s important to note that rhinoplasty is a complex surgical procedure, and outcomes may vary based on individual factors and the surgeon’s expertise.
