RHINOPLASTY SURGERY

Rhinoplasty Surgery is the operation plastic surgeons
use to reduce or reshape the appearance of the nose.
During the Rhinoplasty Surgery just the nose cartilage is reduced or reshaped and the overlying skin is not touched.

What are the reasons for having Rhinoplasty Surgery?

Rhinoplasty Surgery is performed to correct nose shapes and sizes due to family lineage as well as to correct the nose after an injury or trauma. Both natural and unnatural characteristics of a patients nose can be altered during the Rhinoplasty Surgery. Patients should understand the risks involved with Rhinoplasty Surgery and their plastic surgeon should make sure to manage their expectations.

What happens during Rhinoplasty Surgery?

To avoid scarring whenever possible, most plastic surgeons will make incisions inside the nose. The surgeon will then alter the shape of the nose by removing or replacing underlying bone and cartilage. Stitches are used to close the small incisions. Sometimes surgical packing is used to help control bleeding when the Rhinoplasty Surgery is completed.
