If you’re unhappy with your nose – whether it’s for cosmetic reasons or you’ve been injured – nose reshaping (rhinoplasty) could help. This surgical procedure can enhance, reduce or refine the shape and size of your nose so you feel more confident. It may also help with breathing problems.

In general, candidates for rhinoplasty should be done growing. Facial growth in teens and young adults, for example, can affect the look and function of the nose over time. Additionally, patients should be in good overall health and ideally should not smoke because smoking can lead to poor blow flow and increase the risk of tissue damage. As a rule of thumb, rhinoplasty is possible for teens who have completed their 18th birthday. If combined with a septoplasty (straightening of the septum), this procedure can improve not only a patient’s self-confidence but also breathing. 

Prior to rhinoplasty, I ensure the patient fully understands the procedure and its risks and benefits. If goals of rhinoplasty involve facilitating better breathing as well as improving appearance, the procedure might include removal of the nasal hump, reshaping of the nose tip, reshaping or resizing of the nostrils, or increasing or decreasing the nose’s overall size and projection. 

Rhinoplasty generally takes 2 to 3 hours and is usually an inpatient procedure. In “closed rhinoplasty,” incisions are made within the nostrils, a technique that has a limited ability to make changes. In “open rhinoplasty,” an incision is made across the tissue between the nostrils as well as within the nostrils. These incisions heal very well and are barely visible. 

The nose is a particularly prominent feature of the face and even subtle changes in its shape or size can make a significant difference to your facial appearance. If your nose has a slight bump, is perhaps a little crooked or a less than pleasing shape for you, a solution may be available which does not resort to surgical intervention.
