noses surgery

nose surgery

Rhinoplasty is the medical terminology for what most people refer to as a nose job, nose plastic surgery, or nose cosmetic surgery.

In this procedure there are several goals that a patient may be trying to achieve. Some individuals may be seeking to correct and reshape the nose by targeting these frequent items:

Reducing or increasing size

Removing a hump

Adjusting or changing the shape of the tip

Adjusting or changing the shape of the bridge

Narrowing the span of the nostrils

Changing the angle between the nose and upper lip

Because the correction of the above items may assist in relieving breathing problems it is possible that Rhinoplasty may be covered by insurance.

Length and details of the Nose Surgery procedure

The length of operation usually runs 1 to 2 hours or more.

Patients are given a general or local anesthesia, with sedation.

Rhinoplasty procedures are routinely outpatient.
