Top 5 FAQs about Rhinoplasty | Nose Job Procedure

If your nose is not aesthetically pleasing, or you may have difficulty breathing, then rhinoplasty surgery or a nose job is recommended with or without septoplasty surgery. Rhinoplasty surgery gives your nose an aesthetic shape, size, and appearance by reshaping, realigning or refining structures inside the nose. Septoplasty surgery fixes the deviated nasal septum in the midline of the nose to improve your breathing problem. Even minor tweeks on the nose bring about  improvement in the overall facial appearance, since the nose is the central feature of the face.

Top 5 FAQs about Nose Surgery Procedure

1.    What is reduction rhinoplasty?

Reduction rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure to reduce the length and width of your nose protrusion. This is one of the most famous nose job surgeries, as it helps restore facial balance and proportions. Reduction rhinoplasty is the most common procedure sought-after by both men and women.

2.    What is augmentation rhinoplasty?

If you are worried about the small size of your nose or the nose deficient in height, then augmentation rhinoplasty is a suitable option for you. Augmentation rhinoplasty is performed to enhance the nose height and helps improve both the size and the contour of your nose, creating a more aesthetic and proportionate look. You may be a victim of a too-small nose for various reasons, including hereditary factors, injuries, infections, or previous ruined rhinoplasty. In such cases, augmentation rhinoplasty is a rescue.

3.    What is Alarplasty?

Alarplasty is performed to reduce the size of the nose base and can also improve flaring nostrils. The procedure removes a little soft tissue from the base of the nose and improves a nose that is too wide at the base, commonly performed for those with Asian, South American and south indian descendants. In addition, Alarplasty may be used for cosmetic or functional reasons, making the nose look more symmetrical. Technically, alarplasty is a specific type of rhinoplasty that requires the utmost precision and aesthetic skills on the part of the nose job surgeon.

4.    What is Septoplasty?

The deviated nasal septum is a medical condition caused by hereditary factors (a birth defect); some people may develop it after injury or trauma to the nose. A deviated septum increases the risk of sinus infections due to poor drainage corrected by septorhinoplasty or septoplasty that improves your breathing concerns. Septoplasty is a minor surgical procedure that offers significant benefits for many people.

Since the procedure can open your nasal passage and addresses difficulty breathing by strengthening both the nose bone and cartilage dividing the space between your two nostrils (septum), it is specifically recommended for those having a bent or crooked nose for multiple reasons, including:

·       Injury/trauma

·       Genetics

·       Previous break/s

·       Or other factors, such as nasal cartilage infection.

5.    How long is rhinoplasty surgery?

A nose job procedure can take anywhere between 2-4 hours. Sometimes the procedure can take even longer depending on the extent of the problem, the type of procedure your surgeon is performing, and the customized goal of the patient may influence the procedure length. Rhinoplasty surgery in Bangalore is one of the commonest procedures opted.

A nose job or rhinoplasty surgery is one of the most complicated plastic surgery procedures that require a combination of science-medicine and art-aesthetic on the part of your plastic surgeon. However, choosing only an expert, board-certified rhinoplasty surgeon is recommended.
