(Functional and Cosmetic Nose Surgery)

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to improve the shape, size, and balance of the nose while maintaining or improving breathing. In many patients, rhinoplasty addresses both cosmetic concerns and functional breathing problems together, creating a nose that looks natural and works well.

Common Reasons for Rhinoplasty

• Prominent nasal hump
• Wide or asymmetrical nose
• Bulbous or drooping nasal tip
• Breathing difficulty due to structural problems
• Post-traumatic nasal deformity

Types of Rhinoplasty

• Cosmetic Rhinoplasty – improving nasal appearance and facial harmony
• Functional Rhinoplasty – correcting structural problems affecting breathing
• Combined Functional & Cosmetic Rhinoplasty – improving both appearance and breathing
• Revision Rhinoplasty – correcting previous nasal surgery

Pre-operative Considerations

Detailed consultation includes facial analysis, nasal examination, and discussion of expectations. Photographs may be used for surgical planning.

Benefits

• Improved facial harmony
• Better nasal breathing
• Natural-looking results tailored to individual facial features

Recovery

Initial swelling and bruising improve within 1–2 weeks, while final results gradually refine over several months.
