Nose reshaping (also known as rhinoplasty) is a cosmetic surgery procedure that is very common. In fact, it is one of the most performed today and is so popular due to the benefits that can be gained. Our nose occupies a large area of our face and problems with it can lead to a visible loss of self esteem. We are living in a world where we all want to look better and the good news is that there are a lot of ways in which this can be achieved. Cosmetic surgery has evolved and it is more affordable now than ever.

In most cases patients have a problem with the fact that the size or the structure of their nose has a bad proportion in comparison to other features of the face. Thanks to closed nose reshaping some disproportionate appearances of your nose can be modified. The surgeon can do modifications to the shape and size of the nose. He can also modify the nostril’s span and the angle noticed between your upper lip and your nose. Even some injuries and birth defects of your nose can be dealt with by nose reshaping in general. The only real restriction stands in the fact that the patient needs to be at least 15 years old as the nose needs to completely grow before surgery can be performed. It is also important that you think about the fact that the only person that can tell you exactly what you should do. This basically means that closed nose reshaping is not for everyone and there might be other solutions that you did not think about in the past. A qualified plastic surgeon will give you all the information you require as any cosmetic procedure is highly personal. What might work for on person might not work in your case.

Let us now think about how the closed nose reshaping procedure (also known as closed rhinoplasty) works. During the operation your doctor will make small incisions in the area located inside your nostrils. This is how he can gain access to cartilage and bone. The biggest difference between open nose reshaping and closed nose reshaping is that in closed rhinoplasty no skin is lifted from your nose’s framework. Your doctor will use small instruments and the actual reshaping will be done by adding or removing cartilage, tissue and bone. The end result is achieving your desired appearance. In most cases the closed nose reshaping procedure is preferred when working on your nose because the recovery time is shorter. Even the actual operation will take less time to perform. The good news is that both techniques will have the same good result you are looking for. In reality it is the personal choice of the doctor what to use and this is based on experience with the given procedure.

In most cases the closed nose reshaping procedure will last 1 to 2 hours. Before the operation the area that will be treated is cleansed. Anesthetic is administered and the doctor can choose to go for either general anesthesia or local anesthesia. If needed osteotomy is performed. This procedure involves the nasal bones breaking and then repositioning them. It is not always needed but if you have a nasal dorsum that is too high and presents dorsal hump it will be done.

Remember that after the closed nose reshaping procedure is over you might be faced with bruising, swelling and pain. If needed, pain medication will be administered. The good news is that all of the signs of the procedure will disappear in around one week and you will be able to enjoy your new look.
