Rhinoplasty (nose job) is an operation that changes the shape and size of the nose. Rhinoplasty is frequently performed in combination with septoplasty and the procedure is then called septorhinoplasty.   You may wish to undergo a rhinoplast because you have suffered a trauma to your nose which has left it mis-shapen, or you may naturally have a nose that you feel is too humped, too wide, too long or has a hanging or bulbous tip. Some people dislike the shape of their nostrils as they feel they are too flared or too big. Many people feel their confidence and self-image is undermined because the shape of their nose detracts from their overall appearance.

Septorhinoplasty

The nasal septum, which divides the nose into a right and a left nostril, is the key supporting structure of the lower two thirds of the nose.  This principle should remain in all aspects of rhinoplasty and septorhinoplasty.   The nasal septum is involved in almost every rhinoplasty operation.  The majority of twisted noses are caused by twisted nasal septums. Knowledge of the septum and its peripheral attachments are key to understanding rhinoplasty and septorhinoplasty both for form and function.

Non-surgical Rhinoplasty

Non surgical procedures to the nose are very popular as they are safe and quick. Changes to the nose can be achieved with injectables. Botulinum toxin makes subtle changes to the dynamic of the nose by weaking different muscles. Fillers of hyaluronic acid may alter the profile temporarily very satisfactorily
