What
is Rhinoplasty?Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the nose to enhance its appearance or improve its functionality. Whether for aesthetic reasons or medical concerns like breathing difficulties, rhinoplasty reshapes nasal structures to achieve a balanced and natural appearance. Performed by skilled surgeons, the procedure is customized to meet individual needs and facial harmony.
Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes approximately 2 hours to complete. The surgeon makes incisions inside the nostrils or across the tissue between the nostrils, depending on the extent of the surgery. The surgeon then reshapes the bone and cartilage of the nose to achieve the desired results. Finally, the incisions are closed and a splint is placed on the nose to help it maintain its new shape during the healing process.

Patients who undergo rhinoplasty in Iran report high satisfaction rates and enjoy their enhanced appearance for years to come.
