Why you should get a rhinoplasty

Often the reason why a patient calls for cosmectic surgery is to improve the appearance and proportions of the nose so as to obtain a harmonious facial aesthetics. Each patient is unique, so rhinoplasty approaches a wide range of changes in the shape of the nose, among which we can name reduction in size, lifting the tip, trimming a too-pointed nose, or defining a wider nose, correcting an asymmetric nose, removal of the nasal hump. Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular and appreciated aesthetic interventions in the world and the number of patients increases significantly every day. It is a complex procedure and can be used to correct both congenital malformations of the nose, deformations caused by lifetime traumas and the removal of nasal obstructions (for example, in the case of septal deflection). The nose is located in the front of the face and is divided into 3 segments: proximal (above the nasal bones); middle (above upper cartilage); distal (nose tip). The nose has two functions:

• Sensory (trigeminal nerve performs the fundamental function of the nose: breathing);
• Motor (facial nerve III performs the motor function of the nose with significant importance in protecting the body).

The sinuses are cavities filled with air communicating with the nasal cavity. The frontal sinus and the sphenoid sinus are formed completely during the first ten years of life, and the maxillary sinus is present at birth, but it does not begin to develop until the final teeth appear. It is directly connected with the roots of the first molar and the second premolar roots, which explains why sometimes there are problems with the maxillary sinus due to dental extractions. As can be seen, the nose has a complex structure and performs an important role from anatomical points of view. Therefore, although in many cases rhinoplasty is an aesthetic procedure, it is very important the experience and expertise of the physician that performs it so that the result is both visually pleasing, but at the same time does not affect the role and basic functions of this organ. The aesthetic surgery of the nose - rhinoplasty or rhino correction, in terms of specialty - is a procedure increasingly required by patients, which can produce a substantial improvement in the appearance of the figure. A successful surgery of this type can completely change the facial expression, the nose being a central position and being extremely visible. This provides a balance in the aspect of facial features and an increase in the patient's self-esteem. Read more on this here. The aesthetic enhancements a plastic surgeon can perform through rhinoplasty surgery consist of:

• lowering the size of the nose relative to the face structure, in order to obtain a balanced and well-proportioned image;
• correcting the width of the nose, both at the level of the nasal base and the tip;
• modifying the nasal profile (removal of the unsightly "hump");
• the correction of the nose tip if it is dropped, has a prominent shape (bulb type) or is too high;
• narrowing and changing the shape of the nostrils (if they are too prominent or abnormal);
• correction of asymmetries present in some cases of nasal deviation.

How does rhinoplasty work? Rhinoplasty is not just an aesthetic intervention designed to reshape the nose, but it can also have a functional purpose: correcting some anatomical defects (internal nasal "architecture") that often cause respiratory difficulties. The first consultation with an esthetician surgeon is extremely important because within this the details of the entire procedure will be discussed, your expectations of the surgery and how realistically it can be done, your medical history will be established, and see how many additional risk factors exist and whether there are exte al factors that can jeopardize the success of the procedure (such as smoking or certain medicines you take). The esthetician will also analyze the structure of the bones and cartilage of the nose, face shape, skin thickness, age-related parameters and will also recommend a series of specific analyzes to determine your preoperative health status. Last but not least, photos and face measurements will be taken into the medical file. In order for you to be satisfied with the outcome of the procedure, you need to be as open and transparent as possible in the discussion with your doctor, to communicate what your expectations are and also to be open to the doctor's suggestions,
