Rhinoplasty is primarily performed to correct aesthetic deformities of the nose. Such abnormalities often include wide nasal bridges, pronounced nasal humps, elongated noses, or drooping nasal tips. For many men and women, an abnormally proportioned nose can impact the balance of their facial features.
In other cases, a rhinoplasty is performed in conjunction with a septoplasty, which improves the breathing function of the nose. One of two techniques may be used to perform rhinoplasty. An open technique uses an incision on the outer portion of the nose, while a closed technique involves incisions inside the nasal cavity. Once access is gained to the structures of the nose, cartilage can be removed or repositioned to craft a new nasal appearance.
However, the cartilage structures are fine and delicate. Cartilage that is removed from the nose is permanent, often leaving a slightly weaker structure behind. People may become dissatisfied with their rhinoplasty results for a number of reasons. They may not have achieved the full extent of correction they desired.
