Nose (rhinoplasty)

Rhinoplasty, also known as a “nose job”, is a procedure that is used to change the appearance of your nose, improve breathing difficulties through your nose, or both. You may wish to make changes to your nose if you are unsatisfied with its natural appearance. Alternatively, you may require nasal surgery to correct problems that have resulted from previous injury to your nose.

Rhinoplasty can address the following issues:

• Nose size, shape and proportion relative to the face
• Nostril size
• Nasal asymmetry
• Impaired breathing due to structural problems within the nose, such as a deviated septum
