NOSE REDUCTION: RESTORE BALANCE & SYMMETRY TO YOUR FACE

Concerned that their nose’s size is out of proportion to their facial features, many people seek rhinoplasty surgery. Particularly concerning features include the existence of a hump on the nose’s bridge, an overly wide bridge tip, and perhaps overly wide nostrils.

Rhinoplasty will bring balance and harmony back to your face. The symmetry of your face can be significantly affected by even a minor adjustment to a hump on the bridge of your nose. The function of your nose will also be improved because of the operation. A rhinoplasty will make breathing easier if you have a deviated septum or other nasal problems. Determining which elements are more important in creating this impression and, hence, which need priority attention is one aspect of the consultation process.

Only the top third of the bulge on the nose bridge is caused by the nasal bones; the lower two thirds are mainly cartilage. A straight profile, a slightly concave profile, or perhaps a slightly convex profile – albeit one that is less noticeable – can all be achieved by reducing the bump. Reducing the nose tip necessitates a more intricate mix of contouring to create a narrower, more defined contour and lowering the cartilages, which reduce projection.

It is frequently required to employ an open tip technique during rhinoplasty in conjunction with some skin thinning of the tip and supra-tip (region immediately above the tip) to obtain more substantial correction and control over the form of the nose tip.

In cases when the nostrils are rather large or wide, a technique called an alar base reduction can shorten them by removing a wedge of tissue where the nostrils meet the face. This inevitably leaves the area with a fine scar. The combination of narrowing the tip and reducing the tip projection in the setting of rather thick nasal tip skin is one of the primary challenges in obtaining excellent results with reduction rhinoplasty.

Although the degree of correction will be more limited and bringing about change will require more work, this does not imply that patients with thicker skin at the tip of their noses cannot have a more defined appearance. It is crucial to recognise that the outcomes of surgery will never match the computer models used for preparation, as is the case with rhinoplasty in general.

It is time to take the next step if you have been considering a nose operation for some time because you are dissatisfied with the way your nose looks. Men and women in good health who might have trouble breathing freely and clearly are the best candidates.
