A nose job can be done to correct breathing problems, congenital defects or disfigurement resulting from trauma.

About The Procedure

This cosmetic procedure is usually performed under light anesthesia. Patients do not have to stay overnight in the hospital. The surgeon might make the incisions in the nostrils or under the nose, depending on the surgery. This procedure might involve breaking the nose bridge bones to reshape them and improve their appearance. It might also involve reshaping nose cartilages. The patient is required to wear a cast or a splint for a week postoperatively.
