Cosmetic vs Functional Rhinoplasty
Cosmetic Rhinoplasty
Addresses aesthetic concerns such as a dorsal hump, wide nasal bridge, bulbous or drooping tip, asymmetry, or overall size disproportionate to other facial features. The goal is to create a nose that harmonizes with your face while maintaining your ethnic identity.
Functional Rhinoplasty
Corrects structural issues that impair breathing, such as a deviated septum, enlarged turbinates, or nasal valve collapse. Many patients combine functional and cosmetic improvements in a single procedure.
Open vs Closed Technique
Closed Rhinoplasty
All incisions inside the nostrils — no visible scars. Suitable for moderate changes. Faster initial recovery with less swelling.
Open Rhinoplasty
Small incision across the columella for direct surgical access. Preferred for complex cases, revision surgery, and significant tip work. The tiny scar fades to near-invisibility within months.
