Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty:  A rhinoplasty is used to improve the external appearance to the nose. This procedure can be performed either close (all incisions internally), or open but making a small incision under the nose and lifting the skin of the nose off the underlying structures. A rhinoplasty can be used to flattened the dorsum of the nose if a hump is present or to narrow and elevate the tip of the nose. In some cases of breathing difficulty, a septoplsty can be performed in conjunction with a rhinoplasty in order to improve breathing.
