What is Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery)? Who is it Suitable for?

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at improving the shape and function of the nose. It can be performed for both aesthetic concerns and breathing problems. Today, the goal is not only to change the appearance but also to create a nose structure that is harmonious with the face, natural, and healthy.

Because the nose is located in the center of the face, even a small change can significantly affect a person's overall appearance.

When is Rhinoplasty Performed?

Rhinoplasty can be performed for the following purposes:

Correction of the nasal bridge

Lifting or reshaping the tip of the nose

Nose appearing too large or too small in relation to the face

Crooked nose structure

Shape deformities resulting from trauma

Breathing problems (deviation, etc.)

Aesthetic and functional needs are often evaluated together.

Who is a Suitable Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

Individuals whose nasal development is complete (usually after age 18)

Those whose general health is suitable for surgery

Those dissatisfied with the appearance of their nose

Those experiencing breathing problems

Individuals with realistic expectations

Nasal structure, skin thickness, and facial proportions vary from person to person. Therefore, the surgical plan is completely customized for each individual.
