Got a big nose? How about a bump that ruins an otherwise perfect slope?
Makeup, inventive hairstyles, glasses - there's no way you can hide the problem effectively. And on top of that, it's in the middle of your face like a beacon.
If you're tired of people staring at your nose, it's time to do something about it. Permanently.
Rhinoplasty, also known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure that redefines the shape or contour of your nose. Aesthetic problems arising from genetics or trauma can all be corrected with this remarkable cosmetic surgical treatment. Though it may sound like a new form of surgery, people have been undergoing rhinoplasty for centuries. In fact, it is believed to have existed since around 500BC, originating in India. Over time, the procedure has been refined to what it is today: a remarkable and effective treatment for aesthetic problems afflicting the nose. It can even help with some breathing problems.
Some typical problems corrected by rhinoplasty include making the nose shorter, smoothing out a bump on the bridge, narrowing the width of the nostrils, and eliminating "knobbiness" at the tip.
It is strongly recommended that rhinoplasty is performed on adults, after full growth has been reached. When seeking a cosmetic surgeon, make sure to examine their professional experience, credentials and education. Doing so will reduce the risk of complications from occurring.
This invasive procedure can be performed on an outpatient basis, typically under general anesthesia. It may take up to 2 hours, depending on the extent of correction.
