Hello,
A nose procedure is quite an experience. I am quite sure you will be very pleased if you have correctly chosen your surgeon. Please, if you have some time you can read all about it on my site: www.aesthetics-ge.ch
Rhinoplasty can be used to reduce or enlarge the size of the nose. The cartilage in the nose can be sculpted to obtain significant aesthetic enhancement. The surgeon can access the cartilage under the nose by either entering through the nostrils or by making an incision on the outside of the nose.

The rhinoplasty can be done by open technik ( that takes 1-3 hours, and involves remodelation so the hump nose
and the top nose), or by closed technik ( that takes 1 hour and involves remodelation just of the hump nose).
You can call us under the phone numer 0040722603983.
Have a nice day,

It's just impossible to explain in few words wath a rhinoplasty technically involves, as they're as many rhinoplasty procedures as different noses. It's just the most difficult and demanding operation of aesthetic surgery and your surgeon must be a rhinoplasty expert to decrease the risks of insatisfaction and the frequent need for reoperation. The operation duration is between 90 minutes and 180 minutes for a primary nose, depending on what must be performed. But I'm sure your surgeon will explain in depth all the details of this surgery before your operation.
Best regards

Rhinoplasty (nose reshaping) surgery is the most popular cosmetic surgery performed in the world.
There are many reasons to choose to have rhinoplasty varying from patient to patient, some cosmetic and some medical reason. Whatever the reasons to have rhinoplasty nose reshaping surgery are, it is always wise to make sure you are fully informed of the surgeons qualification. You should make sure that the surgeon has performed rhinoplasty surgery before.
There are many techniques to perform rhinoplasty.
Open Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty that refers to the surgery that is carried out on the external side of the nose as well as on the internal side is said to be Open Rhinoplasty. In this type of Rhinoplasty, incisions are made on the Columella (the bridge connecting the nostrils) and other parts as necessary. Surgeons opt for this if you wish to reshape your nose extensively, including the tip of the nose and other aspects of its. If you wish to reduce your flared nostrils and modify other visual aspects of your nose, then this is the method for you to consider. Individuals yearning for a perfect nose should opt for this kind of Rhinoplasty.
Closed Rhinoplasty
When you are afraid about work done on the outer side of your nose and want something that is not going to look obvious, then you should go in for Closed Rhinoplasty. This form of Rhinoplasty involves work that is done only on the inside, within the nostrils. Since there is no work done on the outside, you don’t have any scars or any other kind of damage to worry about either. A couple of small scars may result due to the surgery, but these are subject to the extent of the surgery. If you opt for Closed Rhinoplasty and want a lot of work done, involving the tip of the nose, then a couple of tiny scars are to be expected.
Closed rhinoplasty means classical reduction rhinoplasty without any outer incision. Everything is inside of the nose. The purpose should be a normal appearance with good breathing function.

You got already quite a few good answeres. I prefer to do a rhinoplasty under local anesthesia with sedation using an endonasal aproach, no visible scars on the outside and less traumatic. The patients usually stay one night in hospital and wear a split for one week.

Hi,
Rhinoplasty or nose surgery, sometimes referred to as “nose reshaping” or a “nose job,” improves the appearance and proportion of your nose, enhancing facial harmony and self confidence. Surgery of the nose may also correct impaired breathing caused by structural abnormalities in the nose.
Enhancing your appearance with nose plastic surgery
While the shape of your nose is usually the result of heredity, the appearance may have been altered in an injury or during prior surgery.
What can surgery of the nose accomplish?
Rhinoplasty surgery can change:
• Nose size, in relation to the other facial structures
• Nose width, at the bridge
• Nose profile, with visible humps or depressions on the bridge
• Nasal tip, that is large or bulbous, drooping, or too upturned
• Nostrils that are large, wide or upturned
• Nasal asymmetry and deviation
Is it right for me?
Nose cosmetic surgery is a highly individualized procedure and you should do it for yourself, not to fulfill someone else’s desires or to try to fit any sort of ideal image.
With best regards,

An incision is made across the lower abdomen from hipbone to hipbone. A second incision is made around the belly button. The skin and fat are separated from the abdominal wall. Excess skin and fat are then excised. The abdominal muscles are tightened by shortening them and suturing them together. A small incision creates a new opening for the belly button. It is brought out through the opening sutured to the new skin. Stretch marks and scars may be removed during surgery.

there are many facets to a rhinoplasty. the best thing is to make an appointment with your local plastic surgeon or ent surgeon.
basically there are open and closed techniques, both of which may include the following:
the nasal bones may be fractured,
the nasal septum,
the nasal dome cartilages,
& the nostrils may be addressed independently or all together.
what is done depends on what you are looking for and what you are starting out with.
hope this gives you a very quick overview.

Nose job doesn’t take more than 30 to 60 minutes. However, to perform the operation successfully it takes a very experienced cosmetic surgeon who needs to know a wide range of surgical methods in order to apply the best method for every individual case. Nose surgery requires a routine preoperative analysis of the patient, which includes blood tests and medical examination. Rhinoplasty is performed under enhanced local anesthetic. That means that besides the local anesthetic, a patient is also given a light sedative. The patient is asleep during the operation and the whole procedure is painless. One month is enough time to prepare for the rhinoplasty. Before the operation, in our correspondence and detailed conversation, we instruct our patients to stop using painkillers and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, containing acetylsalicylic acid like Aspirin, Andol or Acisal, in case they usually take these. This is a very important factor in patient’s preparation for the surgery, as this way we prevent possible bleeding and haematoma during and after the procedure. Following this instruction makes the recovery quicker and more successful, and the result of the operation is improved.
There are two main categories: open and closed rhinoplasty. The technique is mainly chosed according to the difficulty of the nose, the need to correct the septum and patient wishings. The operation may take between 40 minutes up to 1.5 hours.
Basically the procedure involves nasal bones ostheotomy and cartilages reshaping, and will take about 2 hours
let s say that you have a hump on the back of your nose... after you ve been anesthetized, and started dreaming, your plastic surgeon will infiltrate, under your nasal skin, some solution for not bleeding. after that, he will find the right place for opening it. than, with chisel and hummer, he will remove the hump. both of nasal bones will be broken and fitted in new fashion. maybe, if necessary, the correction of the septum and some other cartilaginous parts of your nose will be done. that`s it. the mask, plasters....end. some like to operate one hour some two hours. good luck!
Patients should find out everything they need to know, during examination and consultation with the chosen cosmetic surgeon. There, they will be explained what will be done in order to accomplish the desired results and what they should and shouldn't do before and after the surgery. Prior to the surgery, the patients need to have some specific blood tests done. For a standard nose job, local anaesthetic with sedation is often used. On the morning of the surgery, restrain from eating or drinking. The preparation for the surgery involves final preoperative examination, after which nurses take you in the preparation room, followed by entering the OR. There, you will be given anaesthetic and sedation. The surgery itself takes 30-60 minutes. You will have nasal pack in your nose and a metal splint on the nose to protect the new shape of your nose. After rhinoplasty, you stay at the clinic for couple of hours, where medical staff is taking care of you and cool your neck and nose area. Once you are sent to home care, you will be expected to cool your neck with ice packs during the day for three days, until you come for nasal pack removal. The splint is removed on the 7th postoperative day. Make sure you take 8-10 days off work.
Rhinoplasty is performed by either using a closed procedure, where incisions are hidden inside the nose, or an open procedure, where an incision is made across the columella. Through these incisions, the soft tissues that cover the nose are gently raised, allowing access to reshape the structure of the nose.
