Reshaping the Nose (Rhinoplasty)

Introduction
Corrective nasal surgery is one of the most common cosmetic procedures performed today. The operation is performed for repair of injuries, which have caused a noticeable deformity and also when the nose has become an unacceptable, shape during growth and development.

Essentially the nasal contour is changed by removing shifting or altering the underlying bony and cartilaginous structures. Except in special circumstances the operation is performed from inside the nose leaving no external scars.

The skin covering the nose will reshape around its new underlying frame work. At the preoperative consultation the shape of the new nose is carefully discussed with the patient.

Nature of Operation
The patient is admitted on the morning of the operation. Preoperative photographs may be taken. The shape of the nose is changed along the lines agreed with the patient. This will nearly always involve fracturing the nasal bones.

At the completion of the operation a plaster of Paris is placed on the nose and secured in position with sticky tape to the forehead and cheeks. The plaster splint is removed after a week to ten days. The purpose of the splint is to immobilize the fractured nasal bones and reconstruct cartilaginous framework in order to allow optimum healing conditions.

In addition soft packs are placed inside each nostril for 24 hours. The duration of stay in the the hospital is usually no longer than one day.
