What can a rhinoplasty do for you?
- alter the size of the nose
- remodel the nose tip, the bridge of the nose
- correct the angle between the upper lip and the nose
- septoplasty (straightening the nasal septum).
Before surgery
Your plastic surgeon will examine you in detail and, if needed, take photographs. If necessary, a test will be carried out to determine whether you have problems breathing through your nose. You will be informed of the precise manoeuvres that will be carried out and whether your expectations can be met.
Possible complications
- scars
- bleeding
- infection
- swelling, pain and bruising
- wound problems
- asymmetry
- perforation of the septum
