Cosmetic Surgery of the Nose

During the physical evaluation, your plastic surgeon will examine the structures inside your nose and the quality of your skin, as well as the size and shape of your nose and its relationship to your facial features.

Your plastic surgeon may recommend other treatments that can be performed along with rhinoplasty to better meet your appearance goals or to improve breathing.

To enhance your appearance:

  • Chin surgery can improve facial balance by making the chin more or less prominent.

To correct breathing difficulties:

  • A turbinectomy can open nasal air passages by reducing the turbinates, the internal projections that warm and moisturize the air that passes through the nose.
  • A septoplasty can correct a deviated septum, a condition in which the dividing wall within the nose shifts from the middle to block the air passages.
 

c) Rhinoplasty can correct a nasal tip that droops, a bump on the nasal bridge, and other attributes that may make someone feel their nose is unattractive

d) The results of rhinoplasty enhance the balance between the nose and other facial features.

 
 
e) Small wedges of skin at the base of the nostrils may be removed through incisions that are hidden in the nose's natural creases
