Septorhinoplasty: Enhancing Your Facial Features
16th August 2024 |
By Pammela Nieto
Septorhinoplasty, often referred to as a nose job, is a surgical procedure that corrects and reshapes the nose. It can address both functional and aesthetic concerns.
If you're considering septorhinoplasty, you're likely looking to improve your breathing, enhance your facial harmony, or both.
Understanding Septorhinoplasty
Septorhinoplasty is a complex procedure that requires a skilled surgeon with a deep understanding of facial anatomy. The septum, the cartilage and bone dividing the nostrils, is often deviated, which can obstruct airflow and lead to snoring or sleep apnea.
Simultaneously, the external shape of the nose can be altered to complement your facial features.
Benefits of Septorhinoplasty
The benefits of septorhinoplasty extend beyond aesthetics. Many patients experience significant improvements in their quality of life due to improved breathing and reduced snoring.
Other benefits include:
Enhanced self-confidence: A well-proportioned nose can dramatically boost self-esteem.
Improved facial harmony: Septorhinoplasty can balance facial features and create a more harmonious appearance.
Relief from breathing difficulties: Correcting a deviated septum can alleviate congestion and improve sleep quality.
Reduction in snoring: By addressing airway obstruction, septorhinoplasty can reduce or eliminate snoring.
The Septorhinoplasty Procedure
The septorhinoplasty procedure is tailored to each patient's specific needs. It typically involves the following steps:
Consultation: During a consultation, Mr. Aftab Ahmed will discuss your goals, medical history, and examine your nasal structure.
Anaesthesia: The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia.
Surgical techniques: The surgeon will make incisions within the nose to access the underlying structures. The septum is straightened, and any excess cartilage or bone is removed or reshaped. The external shape of the nose is then modified as desired.
Recovery: Post-operative care involves managing pain, swelling, and protecting the nose. Most patients can return to work within a week or two.
