Rhinoplasty – What does the surgery entail?

This process begins with several pre-operational procedures, which involve patient consultation, examinations of the exterior and interior nose including nasal cavity, and planning regarding surgery and recovery. Most surgeries of this type involve access and alteration of the bones and cartilage that support the nose so that it can be molded and re-shaped. Ethnicity, age and gender all factor into the delicate – complex art of rhinoplasty surgery and requires experience, skill and a thorough understanding of the facial/nasal anatomy in order to achieve results that are right for each individual.
