Get beautiful results and boost your confidence with rhinoplasty!
A popular cosmetic procedure, rhinoplasty reshapes the size and proportions of your nose. It can also correct a deviated septum or other medical issues involving the nasal structure.
The procedure is performed under a general anesthetic. There are two types of rhinoplasty: open and closed. In an open procedure, the necessary incision is made across the columella, the narrow strip of tissue between the nostrils. In a closed rhinoplasty, the incisions are hidden within the nose. In either situation, the surgeon reshapes the nose, often by removing bone or cartilage. Once the desired results are achieved, the surgeon closes the incisions.
The initial recovery from the surgery takes a few weeks. However, your nose may not fully settle into its new shape until up to a year after the procedure. Overall, rhinoplasty is extremely effective at modifying the shape of your nose, with long-lasting results. While your nose may change slightly with age, if you maintain a healthy lifestyle you can expect your new nose to last a lifetime!
