What is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty is a procedure used to shape or reconstruct the nose. It can be done to enhance the appearance of your face harmony or for medical reasons for example to correct structural issues due to trauma or birth defects. In Calicut the procedures for reshaping the nose are performed by highly skilled experts using the most advanced, minimally-invasive techniques to achieve the best outcomes.
Rhinoplasty can address several concerns, such as:
- Reducing or increasing the size of the nose
- Changing the shape of the tip or bridge
- Narrowing the span of the nostrils
- Adjusting the angle between the nose and the upper lip
Benefits of Rhinoplasty:
- Enhances the form, proportions and balance of noses, thereby contributing to balance in the face
- Aids in removing structural obstructions within the nasal passages, which can lead to easy breathing and better oxygen flow
- Increase self-confidence by aligning the appearance of your to your own personal aesthetic objectives
- Corrects birth defect or damage caused by trauma, while restoring an appearance that is natural to the nasal area
- Helps improve breathing patterns that can help improve sleep, decrease stress and improve overall wellbeing.
- It improves the overall shape, size, and symmetry of the nose, creating better facial balance.
- Rhinoplasty can correct structural issues that may block the airways, resulting in better airflow and easier breathing.

Rhinoplasty usually takes between 1 to 2.5 hours, but more complex cases may take longer.
Most rhinoplasty procedures are done with incisions inside the nostrils, so there are no visible scars. In some cases, a small incision is made across the columella (the strip of tissue between the nostrils), but the scar is usually minimal and hard to notice.
Initial recovery takes about 1 to 2 weeks. Swelling and bruising around the nose and eyes usually subside after 2 to 3 weeks, but full recovery and final results may take up to a year as the nose continues to heal and settle into its new shape.
Like any surgery, rhinoplasty comes with some risks, including infection, bleeding, scarring, and anesthesia reactions. Other risks specific to rhinoplasty include nasal blockage, asymmetry, and difficulty breathing, but these complications are rare when done by a skilled surgeon.
The results of rhinoplasty are usually permanent. However, it can take several months to a year for the final shape of your nose to be visible as swelling fully subsides.
