Rhinoplasty Surgery
The nose is a prominent facial feature that makes the face memorable. A sharp nose is traditionally considered a sign of beauty in both men and women. It contributes to the aesthetic beauty of the face and makes it attractive and pretty. However, not all are blessed with a perfectly shaped and proportionate nose.
Some people have noses that are wide, misshapen, bumpy, or deformed. This tends to adversely affect not only the overall appearance of the face but also the functionality of the nose. A misshapen nose or a nose that is affecting a patient’s respiratory system is a cause of physical pain and emotional distress for the patient. Many people opt for nose reshaping for aesthetic reasons. In such cases, rhinoplasty is suggested as it deals with the aesthetic or outside portion of the nose. On the other hand, if the patient is struggling with pain and breathing normally, then septoplasty surgery is suggested. Septoplasty surgery deals with the inside structure and functional problems of the nose. In many cases, rhinoplasty and septoplasty surgery are combined or performed together for optimal results.
Dr. Santosh Bhatia, the Board-certified Cosmetic Surgeon at Vanity Cosmetic Clinic, Mumbai is an expert in nose reshaping or transforming a misshapen/injured/deformed nose into a proportionate, aesthetic one through rhinoplasty and even in dealing with structural, functional problems of the nose with septoplasty surgery. Rhinoplasty surgery, also known as nose surgery or a “nose job”, is a safe and effective solution to fix the nose permanently for the better.

What Is
rhinoplasty surgery?
Rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as nose reshape surgery or nose job, is a type of cosmetic nose surgery that is performed to change the size and appearance of the nose. Rhinoplasty is often performed with septoplasty surgery to improve any pre-existing functional flaws that accompany a deformed nose.
Rhinoplasty can be performed alone or in combination with septoplasty surgery depending on the patient’s needs to repair any damage caused to the nose due to an accident or injury.
Understanding the basic structure of the nose is vital when we discuss rhinoplasty. The upper part of the nose is made up of bone and the lower part of cartilage. Rhinoplasty involves altering the bone, cartilage, and skin either individually or all together for appealing and desirable results.
What all
issues does rhinoplasty correct?
Rhinoplasty is the perfect solution for various issues of the nose. The following are some of the common issues listed down by Dr. Santosh Bhatia of Vanity Cosmetic Clinic, Mumbai:
- Humps and Depressions:Sometimes, there are humps and depressions on the bridge of the nose. These may or may not be visible from the frontal side, however, they are detectable when viewed from the side. These humps or depressions can be effectively corrected with rhinoplasty.
- Nasal Tip:
The nasal tip may be too rounded, too thin, or have a droopy look where it does not make a 90-degree angle with the upper lip which gives the appearance of a hooked nose. The nasal tip can be lifted for a sharper look with rhinoplasty surgery. - Nostrils:
Sometimes people have wide or upturned nostrils which affect the overall appearance of the face. Rhinoplasty can be the right solution to fix the size and shape of the nose and to improve the overall appearance of the face. - Nose size:
Some people have a nose that is too big or too small for their face. In some cases, the nose size might not be proportionate with the other facial features which may create a less than pleasing appearance. To deal with such issues, rhinoplasty is the perfect solution. - Deviated Septum:
The septum is part of the flesh that separates the nasal cavities. If the position of the septum is not right, then deviated septum may occur. A deviated septum leads to breathing issues, headaches, and other such issues. Some people are born with a deviated septum whereas in many cases, accidents or injuries may lead to a deviated septum. - Damage to the nose due to injury:
In the case of a trauma or an injury to the nose due to an accident, the bone or the cartilage may be harmed. This injury may lead to aesthetic or functional concerns of the nose. Such issues need to be corrected to restore the function and original shape of the nose. Rhinoplasty can be performed alone or in combination with septoplasty surgery to deal with such problems.
All of these issues along with some other rare ones can be corrected by a nose surgery like rhinoplasty or nose reshaping surgery. There are different types of nose surgery for different problems. For example; a deviated septum can be corrected with septoplasty surgery.
Dr. Santosh Bhatia, a Board-certified Plastic Surgeon of Vanity Cosmetic Clinic, Mumbai, first evaluates the nose during the consultation before deciding the procedure for correcting the issue at hand. He gives priority to analysis and studies every individual case to deliver the best results.
What are the
different types of nose surgery?
There are a few different rhinoplasty procedures that are adopted while performing the surgery. Some of them are as follows:
- Open Rhinoplasty:
Open rhinoplasty is one of the common types of nose surgery. In an open rhinoplasty surgery, a small incision is made in the columella, which connects all the relevant parts of the nose which need to be corrected. The nasal tip is then folded upwards to open the nose. As the name suggests, open rhinoplasty is an open surgery; hence, there is direct access to nasal passage airways, which makes it easier to operate and correct the imperfections. - Closed Rhinoplasty:
Closed rhinoplasty is one of the most popular types of nose surgery. In a closed rhinoplasty, the incisions are made within the nostrils. Hence, there is no visible scarring in this procedure. As the name suggests, closed rhinoplasty is a closed surgery. Therefore, there is restricted tissue dissection and difficult nasal visualization. Generally, closed rhinoplasty is performed to improve or modify nasal bridge and appearance-related issues related to it. - Septoplasty Surgery:
This surgery aims at correcting a deviated septum that obstructs the nasal air passage. It aims at functionally altering the nose to ease breathing.In the different types of nose surgery, septoplasty surgery is recommended or performed to deal with structural or functional problems of the nose like a deviated septum. Septoplasty surgery aims at correcting a deviated septum that obstructs the nasal air passage, causing breathing issues, headaches, and congestion. Septoplasty surgery aims at functionally altering the nose to ease breathing.
