What is Rhinoplasty Surgery or Nose Reshaping?

Rhinoplasty Surgery, more commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure which helps in re-shaping the nose or altering its appearance. This surgery is performed by a plastic surgeon.

Nose is the focal point of one’s face that plays a very important role in the physical appearance of people. People who are not happy with the shape of their nose and have breathing problem can undergo Rhinoplasty. This surgery can correct various concerns like a bump on the nasal bridge, an enlarged nasal tip, a crooked nose, or asymmetry due to a previous injury.

Rhinoplasty is the most common cosmetic surgical procedure which is performed all over the world.

Types of Rhinoplasty Surgery

There are many types of Rhinoplasty. People might need one or more than one depending on their individual needs:

1. Augmentation Rhinoplasty Surgery

In Augmentation Rhinoplasty, a material is required to augment the nose to improve its appearance and to balance it with other facial attributes. This Augmentation is important for both functional parameters and aesthetic looks. This procedure is frequently combined with other grafting and suturing techniques to enhance the look of nasal dorsal contour and to improve the projection of the tip.

2. Reduction Rhinoplasty

Reduction Rhinoplasty is a nose re-sizing technique which helps in reducing the overall size of the nose or reducing the size of a specific area of the nose. In this procedure, the cartilage or bone is removed to get the desired shape of the nose.

3. Revision Rhinoplasty ( Second Rhinoplasty)

Revision Rhinoplasty can be a more complicated surgery compared to the primary

Rhinoplasty. This surgery really needs a surgeon who has a sophisticated understanding of the nose structure and the techniques of the surgery. The Revision Rhinoplasty is different for everyone depending on their problems. Problems can occur in the different areas of the nose. This surgery is customized to address the specific concerns.

4. Nose Tip Plasty ( Also known as Nasal Tip Plasty or Tip Plasty)

Nose Tip Plasty is a procedure of giving a definite structure to a big or fat nose. With this surgery, the tip of the nose could be sculpted aesthetically enhancing the overall look of the face. Nose Tip Plasty or Nasal Tip Plasty is also performed on a narrow nose tip, thus raising the high points. Recovery time is shorter in this surgery as the entire procedure is limited to the nose tip.

5. Alar Plasty / Alar Reduction

Alar Plasty or Alar Reduction is a plastic surgery procedure in which the shape of the nostrils is narrowed by removing the wedge of the wing of the nose. The width of the nostrils can also be increased using Alarplasty.
