What is Rhinoplasty?
THE rhinoplasty surgery It allows you to sculpt a nose with a structure and dimensions suited to each patient's face, as well as solving functional problems, particularly nasal obstruction.
There are several changes in the nose that may lead to this procedure:
- nasal deviation;
- misaligned dimension;
- changes in the shape of the tip or dorsum of the nose;
- respiratory difficulty resulting from deviations of the septum, previous fractures or the shape of the nasal pyramid itself.
What does the evaluation consultation for Rhinoplasty consist of?
In the Plastic Surgery evaluation consultation various issues regarding the procedure are analyzed and discussed. The 3D simulation software which can help you visualize the potential results after surgery.
In fact, the selection of the surgical technique must always be adapted to each patient and personalized, so that the result is optimized and as close as possible to expectations.
Rhinoplasty - Before and After
See the before-and-after photos of rhinoplasty. Notice how the surgery allows us to sculpt a nose with the structure and dimensions suited to each patient's face.
Just 7 days after surgery, it is possible to see the impact that rhinoplasty has on facial harmony.
In addition to optimizing the aesthetic aspect, this surgical procedure also improves the functional aspect of the nose, often resulting from deviations of the nasal septum, hypertrophy of the nasal conchae (bones located inside the nasal cavities) or hypertrophy of the nasal mucosa.
