Rhinoplasty Dubai | 16 July 2020
Changing the shape or reducing the size of the nose is a common operation. The aim of a good rhinoplasty is to provide a harmoniously shaped nose with regard to the other features of the face, with a natural look, which does not draw attention to itself. It should be undertaken in such a way that there are minimal complications and time off work.
Most people who dislike their nose have concerns about the bridge or the tip. At the bridge, or dorsum, people often complain about having a hump. Meanwhile, people who want to change the tip often see this part of the nose as being too wide, round, blobby, beaked or lacking in definition. Some people also dislike the length of their nose.
Other patients may opt for a rhinoplasty because of an injury to the nose, whereby the nose may be broken or bent following an accident of some kind. Others may have functional breathing problems relating to the nasal airways. In these cases, surgical interventions would be considered reconstructive, whereas for the majority of nose operations the surgery is classed as cosmetic.
Nose operations are most commonly carried out to:
– Alter the hump at the bridge of the nose
– Reshape the tip of the nose
– Alter the length of the nose
– Alter the width of the nose
– Alter the width of the nostrils
– Open up the nasal airways to help breathing.
Whilst many patients want to see the final result immediately upon removal of the splint, the presence of early swelling can be misleading and a premature judgement should not be made. By six weeks the new shape of the nose will be clear but changes will continue for many more months. It is common for relatives and friends not to comment on any difference after a rhinoplasty. Do not consider such a reaction as an indication of failure, on the contrary if it looks better and natural it will go unnoticed. The intention is to create a new nose that draws little attention to itself and that blends into the overall features of your face in proper proportions.
