Whether you’re seeking cosmetic improvement, addressing breathing issues, or repairing nasal trauma, Asian ENT Care Centre in Hyderabad offers expert rhinoplasty surgery tailored to meet your needs.

What is Rhinoplasty?

  • Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgery that alters the shape, size, or structure of the nose for either cosmetic or functional reasons.
  • It can address structural issues such as a deviated septum, nasal obstruction, or nasal trauma, and can also be performed for cosmetic improvements.
  • The procedure may involve reshaping the cartilage or bones of the nose, adjusting the nasal tip, or correcting breathing difficulties related to nasal passage obstruction.

Why is Rhinoplasty Done?

  • Cosmetic Reasons: To improve the shape, size, or symmetry of the nose in relation to the rest of the face. Common reasons include:
    • Removing a hump or bump on the nose.
    • Refining the nasal tip or nostrils.
    • Reshaping the bridge of the nose.
    • Correcting asymmetry or structural irregularities.
  • Functional Reasons: To improve breathing and airflow, especially in cases where nasal blockage or deviated septum is affecting daily life, sleep, or exercise.
    • Correcting a deviated septum: To improve airflow and reduce nasal congestion.
    • Repairing nasal trauma: Following injury or trauma, to restore proper shape and function.

Benefits of Rhinoplasty

  • Improved Appearance: Rhinoplasty can enhance facial harmony by improving the size and shape of the nose, boosting self-confidence.
  • Better Breathing: Functional rhinoplasty can correct structural issues like a deviated septum or nasal passage obstruction, leading to easier breathing.
  • Facial Balance: Rhinoplasty enhances the proportion of the nose relative to the rest of the face, improving overall facial aesthetics.
  • Permanent Results: The results of rhinoplasty are long-lasting, providing a permanent solution to nasal cosmetic issues or functional problems.
  • Improved Quality of Life: For patients with chronic nasal congestion, breathing difficulties, or snoring, functional rhinoplasty provides significant relief and better sleep quality.

What Happens During Rhinoplasty?

  • Anesthesia: Rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on the complexity of the procedure.
  • Procedure:
    • Closed Rhinoplasty: Incisions are made inside the nostrils, so there are no visible scars.
    • Open Rhinoplasty: A small incision is made across the columella (the skin between the nostrils) for better access to the internal nasal structure.
    • The surgeon reshapes the nasal bone and cartilage to create the desired appearance or correct structural problems.
  • Duration: The surgery typically takes between 1 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity of the case.
  • Post-Procedure Care: After surgery, patients are monitored and can usually go home the same day. Some swelling and bruising are common but generally subside after a few days.

Who is a Good Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

  • Cosmetic Concerns: Individuals unhappy with the appearance of their nose due to size, shape, or proportion to the face.
  • Breathing Problems: Those experiencing chronic nasal congestion, difficulty breathing through the nose, or frequent sinus infections due to structural issues like a deviated septum.
  • Trauma or Injury: People who have suffered facial trauma or injury affecting the appearance or function of the nose.
  • Realistic Expectations: Candidates who understand the potential outcomes and have realistic expectations about the surgery.

Post-Surgery Care and Recovery

  • Recovery Time: Most patients can return to normal activities within 1 to 2 weeks, although some swelling and bruising may persist for several weeks.
  • Pain Management: Mild discomfort is common, but it can be managed with prescribed pain medications.
  • Nasal Care: Patients may need to use saline sprays or nasal irrigation to help keep the nasal passages clear and aid in healing.
  • Follow-Up Appointments: Several follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor healing, remove any packing or splints, and assess the final results.
  • Avoid Strenuous Activities: Patients are advised to avoid strenuous physical activities, including heavy lifting or vigorous exercise, for about 4 to 6 weeks after surgery.
