Rhinoplasty, or nasal surgery, is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures. It can enhance the shape, size, and general appearance of your nose by correcting a drooping nasal tip, a bump on the nasal bridge, and other unfavorable attributes. Rhinoplasty can be performed on men and women of almost any age. However, it’s usually recommended that young people wait until facial growth is complete. Chin enhancement is a procedure often performed alongside Rhinoplasty to achieve optimal facial balance.
The procedure is done on an outpatient basis under sedation or general anesthesia. Working through nasal incisions, the nose’s framework of bone and cartilage is sculpted to the desired shape. Changes may be made to reshape the tip, reduce the size or width of the nose, increase or decrease the nasal bridge, or change the angle between the nose and the upper lip.
The results of Rhinoplasty enhance the balance between the nose and other facial features. The patient will have a straighter bridge, a well defined nasal tip and an improved angle between the nose and the upper lip. more about rhinoplasty…
