a surgical procedure focused on altering or enhancing the shape and structure of the nose for cosmetic or functional purposes
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure aimed at changing the shape or size of the nose. It can be performed for cosmetic reasons to improve the appearance of the nose or for medical reasons to correct breathing problems or issues resulting from injury or problems that were present at birth. During the procedure, the surgeon reshapes the bone and cartilage to achieve the desired look or function. Recovery from rhinoplasty typically involves swelling and bruising around the nose and eyes, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few weeks. The final results of the surgery are usually visible after a few months as the tissues heal completely.
