Understanding Rhinoplasty in Miami, FL
The nose is a central facial feature that significantly impacts overall facial aesthetics and self-perception. Some patients seek rhinoplasty to improve facial proportions, while others require functional corrections due to breathing difficulties or structural abnormalities.
What is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a "nose job", is a surgical procedure designed to permanently modify the nose's shape and size by restructuring the nasal skeleton of bone and cartilage. The procedure can dramatically improve an individual's facial appearance and potentially resolve functional breathing challenges.
Conditions Rhinoplasty Can Address
- Nasal profile irregularities like bridge bumps or depressions
- Oversized, crooked, or disproportionate nose structures
- Uneven or enlarged nostrils
- Droopy, bulbous, or upturned nasal tips
- Structural abnormalities such as deviated septums
