Nose Job

A nose job is performed to reshape, resize, or repair the nose by resculpting the bone and cartilage. These cosmetic procedures have become one of the most common of all plastic surgeries. There are two common nose job techniques performed by surgeons today, closed and open rhinoplasty. During an open rhinpoplasty procedure an incision is made in the skin between the two nostrils, while a closed rhinoplasty does not require an external incision. The surgeon you choose may suggest combining a nose job with other cosmetic procedures such as a chin or cheek augmentation to enhance the aesthetic results and get the best possible results.
