Creating the ideal nose shape
Friday, February 1st, 2008
One of the most commonly performed cosmetic surgery procedures is the rhinoplasty. This procedure represents
the greatest fusions between art and science. Sculpting a new nose requires an in depth knowledge of nasal anatomy and function as well as a true sense of the patient’s sense of beauty and ethnicity. The nose you end up with should fit
easily into the shape of your face and in fact should not be distinguishable from any other feature.
A well recognized successful rhinoplasty is that of Ashley Simpson, American Pop star. Her new nose was so right for her face that it really accentuates its true beauty.
Rhinoplasty can improve the tip of the nose and its projection and the removal of the hump on a nose can change the length as well as the shape of that nose. Most Rhinoplasty procedures can be performed as day only cases requiring a week off work.
Successful rhinoplasty is a combination of careful patient selection and planning, accurate operative technique and thorough postoperative care.
