Rhinoplasty: How does this nose surgery work?




Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at changing the shape or size of the nose; it can be performed for aesthetic reasons, such as correcting a bump, narrowing the nostrils, or reshaping the tip of the nose. It can also be used for medical reasons, such as correcting a deviation that may cause breathing difficulties.

The procedure varies depending on the chosen method; therefore, it is important to consider the patient's needs and goals.

If the ultrasonic laser technique can correct imperfections, the technique we developed in our clinic, through reconstructive biocivity, allows for reshaping the body by creating cartilage.
The operations last from 1 to 6 hours depending on the technique used.
