What is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, or a nose job, is a surgical procedure to alter the shape, size, or function of the nose. 

Rhinoplasty, also known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure that reshapes and refines the nose to produce a more aesthetically pleasing and proportionate appearance. Through strategic modifications like reducing or increasing size, altering angles, and refining the nasal tip and bridge, rhinoplasty can dramatically improve the balance and harmony of facial features.

Furthermore, it could also addresses breathing difficulties, offering results tailored to each individual’s needs.

How Rhinoplasty Addresses Different Nasal Concerns

Aesthetic Concerns

Nasal profiles come in all shapes and sizes, and certain features can cause self-consciousness for some individuals. 

Through personalised rhinoplasty techniques, our surgeons can effectively treat many common nasal concerns (Hover to read more):

Wide-flared Nostrils - A nose alar reduction narrows the width of the nostrils to improve facial balance and symmetry. This adjustment helps integrate the nose more seamlessly into the facial structure.
Short Nose - A short nose correction lengthens the nasal bridge and tip, restoring and enhancing facial proportions for a more balanced appearance and correcting the visual impact of a disproportionately short nose.
Hooked Nose/Hump - To address hooked noses or prominent humps, rhinoplasty may involve both cartilage resection to refine nasal structure and cartilage support grafts to shape the nasal framework. This procedure enhances both aesthetic appeal and functionality.
Bulbous Tip - A tip surgery reshapes and refines the appearance of the nasal tip, enhancing its contours and projection for a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing facial profile.

Functional Concerns

Rhinoplasty is a cosmetic surgery commonly known for reshaping the nose for aesthetic purposes. However, it can also effectively treat several functional issues with the nose, by precisely reposition the bones and cartilage for better nasal proportions and function. (Hover to read more):

 

Deviated Septum - Septoplasty aims to straighten and reposition the nasal septum to improve airflow and alleviate breathing difficulties.
Enlarged Turbinates - A turbinate reduction addresses enlarged turbinates by reducing their size, allowing for improved nasal airflow and relieving breathing problems associated with turbinate hypertrophy.
Nasal Valve Collapse - A nasal valve repair strengthens weakened nasal valves and increases airflow through the nostrils. By enhancing the structural integrity of the nasal valves, this procedure effectively reduces breathing problems associated with nasal valve collapse.

About Rhinoplasty Surgery

Before and During the Procedure

Your rhinoplasty journey begins with an in-depth consultation. Our plastic surgeon will evaluate your concerns, medical history and aesthetic goals. You will also receive detailed pre-op instructions like avoiding certain medication or supplements

In the operating room, local anaesthesia along with intravenous or inhalation sedation is used to maximise your comfort during the procedure. 

Refinements like cartilage grafting, bone reductions and nasal tip work sculpt your ideal appearance. Key incisions are meticulously placed to facilitate procedures and heal well. The duration ofa nose job typically ranges from 1-3 hours depending on the extent of work needed to achieve natural yet transformative changes. 

Post Rhinoplasty Recovery

Most patients notice bruising, swelling and discomfort post-operation, which can be alleviated with ice packs. Strenuous activity should be avoided for 2 weeks. Splints or nose guards are worn externally to support healing. Antibiotics and pain medication are prescribed. Sutures or stitches are removed after 1 week. 

Full recovery from rhinoplasty can span up to a year, with swelling persisting for about four to six weeks post-surgery and gradually subsiding within three months. Between three months to a year, your nose is still healing and swelling could still be present.

Frequently Asked Questions

After a nose job, it’s important to avoid strenuous activities, smoking, and touching or manipulating the nose to ensure proper healing and optimal results.

Detailed instructions will be shared with you post-operatively. Take the chance to share your concerns with our plastic surgeon and he can advise you further.

To expedite healing, apply cold compress to areas around the nose and ensure proper rest. Following post-operative care instructions diligently and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with adequate hydration and nutrition is also key to a smooth recovery.

Non-surgical options such as dermal fillers or thread lifts can provide temporary improvements to nasal appearance without the need for surgery.

Consult with our plastic surgeon to explore your options – during consultation, we can best assess your condition and your expectations to advise the appropriate course of action.
