Rhinoplasty, also referred to as a nose job, can correct one or more nose issues. It can change the size, shape, width, and angle, remove humps and bumps, fix indentations, and more. You will meet with the surgeon to determine the method used in the surgery. An open rhinoplasty makes an incision between the nostrils or under them. A closed rhinoplasty requires the incision to be made inside the nose, which leaves no noticeable scar.
The surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. It usually takes between two and three hours. You’ll wear a nose splint and have some mild discomfort. You can expect some swelling and bruising, which will lessen within a few days. While you’ll begin to see results immediately, full results will take a few weeks.
A rhinoplasty can enhance your facial features by improving the proportions of your nose to the rest of your face. It can reduce a large nose or remove a bump or hump on the bridge of the nose. Another benefit is that the surgery can improve breathing by correcting issues in the nasal passage from a deviated septum. This issue can come from an injury, or it may happen from a congenital disability. Getting rhinoplasty can help the person feel more comfortable with their looks, giving them self-confidence that they didn’t have before.
