What is Rhinoplasty / nose bridge surgery?

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at changing the shape of the nose, and is commonly known as “nose reshaping surgery” or a “nose job”. Since the nose occupies the central portion of the face it plays a major role in the overall appearance of the face, and rhinoplasty surgery is one of the most commonly requested cosmetic procedures to improve appearance.

The overall goal of rhinoplasty surgery is to improve the shape of the nose while at the same time preserving or improving the ability to breathe through the nose. The results from the surgery should appear natural and inconspicuous. Rhinoplasty should create a more refined or attractive version of a person’s natural nose that balances with other facial features, rather than give an unnatural “operated” look. Changing the shape of the nose involves meticulously sculpting the underlying structure of the nose (cartilage and bone) and allowing the skin to drape evenly over these structures. Once healing is complete, the improvements made in your nose will appear natural to others.

The nasal dorsum refers to the bridge of the nose and is made up of bone toward the top between the eyes and cartilage toward the tip of the nose. A common rhinoplasty request is to smooth out a bump on the bridge of the nose known as a “dorsal hump.” With this procedure a person can change from a profile that is curved outward along the dorsum to a straight profile that blends in with the tip of the nose. Dorsum rhinoplasty involves carefully sculpting the cartilage and bone that make up the bridge of the nose to create a smooth nasal profile.

The width of the nasal bridge can also be adjusted if it seems too wide or too narrow. If the nasal bridge is too narrow after straightening a dorsal hump this may lead to an overly pinched appearance or even difficulty breathing through the nose. In this situation cartilage grafts taken from the nasal septum are often used to preserve the desired width of the nasal bridge and maintain breathing through the nose. Alternatively, the bridge may appear too wide after removing the hump and give the bridge a flattened or “cut off” appearance that is unnatural. In this case controlled cuts are made in the nasal bones to allow the bones to move toward the middle of the nose and restore the smooth, curved appearance of the bridge of the nose.
