What is Rhinoplasty?

Your nose is a prominent feature of your face that gives it its unique character. However, if you are feeling self-conscious about its shape you may be thinking about a “nose job”. Rhinoplasty, or nose surgery, is a cosmetic procedure to reshape the nose to enhance facial harmony.

This can be achieved by reducing or increasing the size, removing a hump, changing the shape of the tip or bridge, narrowing the span of the nostrils, or changing the angle between the nose and upper lip. The extent of the transformation, however, is limited by your skin type and the anatomy of your nose. check out types of rhinoplasty here.
Sometimes Rhinoplasty is combined with septoplasty, a procedure that opens up nasal passages blocked by a bent septum, to address breathing difficulties in patients.
You may also qualify for a non-surgical rhinoplasty in which soft tissue fillers are used to reshape and even out the surface of the nose.

What is Nostril Widening?

Rhinoplasty can also widen narrow nostrils. The procedure usually involves removing a small amount of nasal tissue. By gently pulling and suturing the nostrils, they are widened, improving aesthetics.

Breathing Difficulties and Nasal Flaring Nasal flaring can indicate breathing difficulties or an attempt to reduce airway resistance. These issues should be diagnosed and treated to prevent worsening. Severe nasal flaring, particularly in children, may necessitate immediate medical attention.

Price & Cost

The Price of rhinoplasty, depending on the non-surgical or surgical approach, and the type of nose is different. Our surgeon can give you an exact estimate of the cost after examination & talking with you.

Possible complications

As with any surgery, though rare, complications can occur, such as fluid retention, excessive bleeding, infection, anesthesia reactions, and pigmentation changes (hypo/hyper). Temporary changes in smell, skin numbness, and upper front teeth numbness are expected. Rarely, these could persist.

Specific to Rhinoplasty, potential complications include:

• Unsatisfactory nasal appearance requiring revision.
• Poor wound healing or scarring.
• Severe nasal blockage due to swelling.
• Septum injury or holes.
• Implant exposure or infection (if used).
