Nose Reshaping (Rhinoplasty)
There are various reasons for choosing to have your nose reshaped including:
- To repair an injury
- To reduce the size or change the shape of your nose
- Or to relieve blockages in the nostrils to make breathing easier
There are a number of ways to reshape the nose and your Specialist will discuss the best option for you, depending on the structure of your bone and surrounding cartilage.
A nose reshaping operation normally involves separating the soft tissue that lies on top of the nose from the bone and cartilage underneath. Depending on the operation, the Surgeon might break the nose bone and reposition it and / or reshape the cartilage.
Depending on the extent of the surgery, the operation may take place under a general or local anaesthetic and will take around two hours.
Usually takes a couple of weeks to a month for the bandages to come off but can take up to 4 months for the whole swelling to go down.
Always go in for a consultation and talk to friends and family about this before making any big decisions!
