Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose to improve its appearance, function, or both. The nose is made up of bone (upper portion) and cartilage (lower portion), and Rhinoplasty can modify one or all of these structures depending on individual needs. The procedure is highly personalized based on facial proportions, skin thickness, cartilage strength, and breathing function. In addition to cosmetic refinement, Rhinoplasty can also correct internal nasal issues such as a deviated septum to improve airflow and breathing quality.

Rhinoplasty works by surgically reshaping the underlying bone and cartilage of the nose while preserving natural function. Depending on the surgical plan, incisions are made either inside the nostrils (closed rhinoplasty) or at the base of the nose between the nostrils (open rhinoplasty).

The doctor at our affiliated hospital may remove, reshape, or add cartilage or bone to achieve the desired structure. Cartilage may be taken from the nose itself, ear, or rib if additional support is required. Once the structural changes are completed, the nasal skin is redraped, and the incisions are carefully closed. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and takes about 1.5 to 3 hours.

1. Consultation and assessment will be conducted.
2. Local anesthesia will be administered.
3. Incisions will be made inside the nose.
4. Bone and cartilage will be reshaped, reduced, or augmented.
5. A deviated septum will be corrected.
6. Nasal skin will be repositioned, and incisions will be closed with sutures.
7. Internal splints and an external nasal splint will be placed.
8. Post-care instructions will be provided.

Q1: How long does Rhinoplasty last?
A1: Rhinoplasty results are considered permanent. Once healing is complete, the new shape of the nose typically lasts a lifetime.

Q2: How painful is Rhinoplasty?
A2: Most patients report mild to moderate discomfort rather than severe pain. Pain is usually well controlled with prescribed medication.

Q3: What is the best age for Rhinoplasty?
A3: The ideal age is when facial growth is complete – usually around 16 to 18 for females and 17 to 19 for males. Adults of any age can undergo rhinoplasty as long as they are healthy and have realistic expectations.

Q4: What happens 10 years after Rhinoplasty?
A4: 10 years after Rhinoplasty, the nose generally maintains its shape. Minor changes may occur due to natural aging, but the surgical improvements usually remain stable and long-lasting.

Q5: Who is not a good candidate for Rhinoplasty?
A5: Rhinoplasty may not be suitable for individuals with uncontrolled medical conditions, bleeding disorders, active nasal infections, or unrealistic expectations. Smokers who are unwilling to stop before surgery may also face higher risks.
