The nose is our most prominent feature and the wrong shape can spoil the profile and general appearance of an otherwise attractive man or woman. Nose improvements have understandably become one of the most requested operations and the techniques have been refined over the years. Cosmetic surgery can make many changes to the nose, some dramatic, some subtle. All the skills of the cosmetic surgeon come in to play to produce an improvement which sits comfortably with all the other features of the face to enhance the overall appearance.
Rhinoplasty is a surgery carried out from inside the nose.
It involves reshaping of the bone and cartilage skeleton of the nose followed by redraping of the nasal skin.
The Nose Tip surgery is a less invasive treatment than rhinoplasty.
It is usually carried out for patients who are looking for smaller type of nasal improvement. The nose tip procedure involves altering the size and shape of the nose tip.
Both operations are usually performed under general anaesthetic and for about a week the patient wears a light cap to protect the nose.
