Nose reshaping (rhinoplasty)

What is nose reshaping (rhinoplasty) and how is it performed?

Nose shape correction or rhinoplasty is a surgical operation that is used to change the shape of the nose and correct congenital or traumatic visual defects. The most popular reasons for the performance of nose shape correction surgery:

• crooked nose;
• too wide or too narrow nose;
• too big or too small nose;
• assymetry of the nose;
• nose with a “hump”;
• “eagle” nose;
• “greek” nose;
• too large, small or asymmetric nostrils;
• hook-shaped or upturned point nose;
• etc.

Nose shape correction allows one to get rid of almost any type of nose defect. Not only cosmetic defects can be corrected during rhinoplasty. Sometimes it is performed due to medical considerations, for instance, in the cases, where the nasal septum has been deformed after a trauma or fracture and the breathing process is difficult. It is possible to perform nose surgery on men, as well as women.

Procedure of the nose shape correction and post-surgical period

The surgery is completely painless, because it is performed under general anaesthesia. It lasts for approximately 1–2 hours. After the operation, the customer is required to stay at the clinic under the supervision of medics for one day. Vital breathing functions are not affected during plastic surgery that involves the change of nose shape, and breathing is not encumbered after the surgery, either. The incisions are made inside of the nose, which ensures that surgical wounds are invisible. The post-surgical effect is retained for the rest of the life. Wearing of a plaster bandage is recommended for 6–10 days after the surgery to hold the nose in the correct position and prevent it from excessive swelling. The oedema and haemorrhages around the eyes usually disappear completely within 2–4 weeks after the surgery.
