Rhinoplasty

Overview

Rhinoplasty also known as a “nose job,” is a surgical or non-surgical treatment that reshapes or repairs the nose. It is done either for cosmetic enhancement or to fix breathing issues. Whether it is smoothing a bump, refining a bulbous tip, correcting a deviated septum or adjusting the nose size, rhinoplasty can help you achieve both functional and aesthetic goals. It is popular among both men and women and is customized based on personal facial structure and expectations.

Why Rhinoplasty Treatment is Required?

• To reshape the nose bone or nose cartilage for cosmetic reasons.
• To improve breathing by correcting a deviated septum or nasal obstruction.
• To repair damage caused by injury or trauma to the nose.
• To refine the bulbous tip or alter a bridge nose for facial harmony.
• To correct previous procedures through revision rhinoplasty.
• To achieve a more balanced facial profile in ethnic rhinoplasty cases.
• For individuals who are unhappy with the size, shape, or symmetry of their nose.
• To reduce the nose size for those wondering how to get a smaller nose.
