The nose is a critical feature on your face and can make a huge difference in the way we look. Its central and prominent location makes it vital for facial symmetry and balance. So when the nose is just barely off-center, too large or has a hump, it can be a major blow to one’s confidence. For those who are concerned about the appearance or functionality of their nose or would like to enhance their nose, rhinoplasty, or nose surgery, is a great solution.
Nose surgery is a highly complex procedure that is tailored to meet the needs of each patient. The incision technique can either be open or closed.
Open rhinoplasty is performed by making incisions along the columella, the narrow strip of tissue separating the nostrils, which gives the surgeon access to nasal structures. A closed procedure means incisions can be made inside the nose, which allows any post-surgical marks to be hidden.
