Common Goals of a Nose Job

Patients seek rhinoplasty for a variety of reasons, including:

• To change the size of the nose in relation to other facial features.
• To correct bumps or depressions on the bridge.
• To reshape the tip of the nose (e.g., bulbous, drooping, or upturned).
• To adjust the size and position of the nostrils.
• To correct a deviated septum for improved breathing.

The Surgical Procedure

Your rhinoplasty procedure will be tailored to your specific goals and facial anatomy. The surgery generally involves:

1. Consultation & Planning: Our surgeon will listen to your concerns, analyze your facial structure, and create a detailed surgical plan to achieve your desired outcome.
2. Anesthesia: The surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, ensuring you are comfortable and pain-free.
3. Incision & Reshaping: The surgeon makes incisions to access the bone and cartilage. Using specialized tools, they carefully remove, add, or rearrange the tissue to create the planned shape.
4. Closing & Support: The incisions are closed, and a splint or cast is placed on the nose to protect it and maintain its new shape during the initial healing phase.
