Rhinoplasty / External Nose

Testimonial from Vaenthen A/L Kalidas who underwent Septorhinoplasty Surgery

Rhinoplasty is a procedure to correct the shape of the nose.  It can be combined with a Septoplasty to straighten a deviated nasal septium if there is nasal blockage.

The upper 1/3 of the nose is a bony structure.  Procedures at this level range from:

Manipulation of Nasal Bones- for a recent fracture with deviation.

Rasping of Nasal Bones- for an established mild lateral deviation of the nasal bones.

Osteotomies- for an established moderate to severe lateral deviation of the nasal bones

Hump Reduction- for a hump deformity.

These are often undertaken as a closed procedure without incisions or minimal incisions on the nasal skin.

The lower 2/3 of the nose is made of cartilage, a firm but rubbery structure.  The soft (tip) work here can also be undertaken as a closed procedure but is more difficult.
