Nose reshaping (Rhinoplasty)

More feminine and confident with new body image

Rhinoplasty can help men and women of all ages to correct a large, disproportionate or irregular shaped nose.

This procedure is performed because of a person feeling self-concious about his or her facial appearance or profile.

Under general anaesthetic
Typical procedure takes around an hour
Reconstruction can take longer
Facial bruising and swelling can take 10 - 14 days to settle
Most patients are required to wear a splint for 7 days after surgery
At least a week off work to rest and recover whilst wearing splint

During a rhinoplasty procedure nearly all surgical incisions are made from within the nasal passage or nostril area and consequently surgical scars are usually hidden from view. If overly large or flared nostrils are surgically tapered then very small scars are hidden in the natural crease of the nose or just below the nostril area.

Results

Nose reshaping can provide excellent results. Improved results are noticed almost immediately but will be obscured by a firm splint or support. Improvements to the contour and the newly shaped nose will continually take place for up to six/twelve months following surgery. It is usual for patients to experience some kind of nasal stiffness, similar to having a heavy head cold for several weeks. The operated area is usually quite tender for several months following surgery.

Initially breasts will feel firm and they will take at least six weeks to soften to a more natural appearance and feel.
