Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that is commonly known as a “nose job”. It involves reshaping the nose to improve its appearance, function or both.
The procedure can be used to address a variety of cosmetic issues, such as a bump or hump on the bridge of the nose, a wide or narrow nose, a crooked nose or a drooping tip. Rhinoplasty can also be used to improve breathing problems by correcting structural issues such as a deviated septum or other obstructions.
The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia and involves making incisions either inside the nose or in the skin between the nostrils. The surgeon then reshapes the bone and cartilage to achieve the desired look or to correct functional issues.
Recovery from rhinoplasty typically takes several weeks, with swelling and bruising lasting for a few days to a few weeks. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity and to avoid touching or bumping their nose during this time to ensure proper healing.
It is important to consult with a qualified and experienced surgeon to determine if rhinoplasty is the right option for you, and to discuss the potential risks and complications associated with the procedure.
