Rhinoplasty (Nose Aesthetics)

Esthestate Aesthetic Surgery Center

Rhinoplasty, also known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure to reshape or resize the nose. Cosmetic rhinoplasty aims to improve the appearance of the nose, while functional rhinoplasty focuses on correcting breathing issues or nasal obstructions. Through this procedure, features like the nasal hump can be smoothed, the tip of the nose refined, the size adjusted, or symmetry enhanced.

What is rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, is a procedure designed to alter the appearance and/or function of the nose. It can address aesthetic concerns like the shape, size, or symmetry of the nose and improve breathing issues caused by structural abnormalities.

Am I a good candidate for rhinoplasty?

Ideal candidates are in good health, have realistic expectations, and are looking to enhance their nose’s appearance or function. A consultation with our specialists will help determine if rhinoplasty is right for you.

What is the recovery time after rhinoplasty?

Initial recovery typically takes about 1-2 weeks, during which swelling and bruising gradually subside. While many return to daily activities within 1-2 weeks, it may take several months for swelling to fully resolve and for final results to become visible.

How long do rhinoplasty results last?

Rhinoplasty results are generally long-lasting. Once the healing process is complete, the changes made to your nose’s structure are permanent. However, the natural aging process can subtly alter the appearance over time.

Can rhinoplasty improve breathing?

Yes, functional rhinoplasty can help correct issues like a deviated septum, nasal valve collapse, or other structural concerns that cause breathing difficulties.
