Rhinoplasty in Evaton: Nose Correction

The optimal age range is 18 to 45. The nose is fully formed by then and tissues still heal well. At an older age, surgery is possible with medical indications if your general health allows it

At its heart, rhinoplasty is a comprehensive solution. It deals with both congenital and acquired deformities of the nose, including those after a nasal injury. A dorsal hump or a nose that is too wide are frequent concerns for patients. Correction can also be aimed at the nasal tip (tip rhinoplasty) or the nostrils (alar rhinoplasty). The surgery plan is individual for every patient and reflects all features of the nose.

Rhinoplasty requires general anaesthesia and takes 1.5 to 3 hours depending on its complexity. It is done by one of two main approaches: open rhinoplasty or closed rhinoplasty. In the open approach a small incision is placed on the columella (the tissue between the nostrils), giving full view of all nasal structures to the surgeon. In the closed approach incisions are made inside the nose, so no visible scars remain.

The surgeon selects the technique according to your goals. Correcting an upturned nose or complex reshaping of the nasal bones and bridge, for instance, often calls for the open approach.

Rhinoplasty — surgery that changes how the nose looks (for aesthetic reasons) and improves its function if breathing is affected.
Septoplasty — surgery on the nasal septum to bring back normal breathing, leaving the outer contour of the nose unchanged.
Both operations are often performed together, especially where a deviated septum meets aesthetic concerns, giving a harmonious look and full breathing again. At City Medical Centre . we carry out rhinoseptoplasty: a combined surgery covering both tasks simultaneously

Preparation means plastic surgeon consultations, lab tests (CBC, biochemistry, coagulation, infection tests), ECG, a chest X-ray, and nasal X-ray or CT imaging. A week before surgery, cut out anticoagulants, alcohol and smoking. Eat light the day before and fast 6 hours before surgery

As with every surgery, there may be swelling, bruising, infection, bleeding, temporary trouble breathing and minor asymmetry. City Medical Centre uses up-to-date techniques, anaesthesia and equipment to reduce risks, together with post-op monitoring and recovery therapy

Improvements begin to show after swelling subsides (2–3 weeks), but it takes 1–1.5 years to judge the final rhinoplasty result, when tissues fully stabilise

In the early days after the operation, splints or swelling may partially block the nasal passages. Breathing usually recovers fully within 1–2 weeks, depending on the scope of surgery and your body

The closed method keeps all incisions inside, leaving no scars outside. The open method leaves a barely visible scar on the columella (the bridge between the nostrils) which fades almost completely in time. Our doctors minimise scars through microsurgical techniques and quality sutures

Rhinoplasty makes facial features more harmonious and improves aesthetics without losing individuality. With 3D modelling you can see the predicted result in advance and agree on the changes with your surgeon

Rhinoplasty is a big step to take. A properly done rhinoplasty makes the new nose blend perfectly with your features and work flawlessly. At the consultation the surgeon carefully assesses every parameter: nose size, tip projection, the septum and nasal lining. With the help of 3D modelling you see your future nasal proportions before rhinoplasty is performed.

Instead of just searching the web for rhinoplasty photos, book a consultation to discuss what modern rhinoplasty can and cannot do for you. We specialise in correcting external nasal deformities and nose reshaping.

The current discount brings rhinoplasty at City Medical Centre to $4,200 instead of $6,000. The first consultation is free.

How much it costs depends on the extent of surgery and is decided at the consultation: the doctor names the exact price after studying your nose and facial proportions.

The surgery under general anaesthesia, one day in the inpatient unit, medical monitoring and a free follow-up check-up. The result comes with a lifetime guarantee from the clinic.

We offer the first consultation at City Medical Centre free. The doctor examines your nose, evaluates the proportions of your face and names the exact cost.

After surgery the nose requires care. An aluminium splint goes on the outside and special silicone splints are placed inside. Nasal function is restricted during the first days but returns quickly. The final rhinoplasty result can be evaluated in 1–1.5 years, when swelling has fully subsided.
