Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty

(RIE-no-plas-tee) is surgery that changes the shape of the nose.

Why choose Rhinoplasty

The motivation for rhinoplasty may be to change the appearance of the nose, improve breathing or both.

The upper portion of the structure of the nose is bone, and the lower portion is cartilage. Rhinoplasty can change bone, cartilage, skin or all three. Talk with your surgeon about whether rhinoplasty is appropriate for you and what it can achieve.
