Rhinoplasty
Conveniently located to serve the areas of London and Manchester
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that corrects the function and unbalanced aesthetics. Nose surgery is often done to correct the shape and size of the nose. Rhinoplasty can balance the shape of the nose in relation to the symmetry of the face. The bridge of the nose is often a point of focus in rhinoplasties. The profile of the nose is often made smoother by reducing bumps and improving depressions. These corrections refine the shape of the nose.

About Rhinoplasty in London
Rhinoplasty, “nose jobs”, or nose reshaping, improves the balance of the face. Rhinoplasty treatments can be both a cosmetic and practical procedure, improving your breathing as well as your appearance. In the hands of an experienced cosmetic surgery specialist like Dr Frati, you can restore balance and harmony to your face.
The tip of the nose is often another point of focus in rhinoplasties. Patients interested in a nose job are often bothered by a large, drooping, hooked, or upturned nose tip. This along with nostril asymmetry can be corrected by our experienced surgeon – Dr Frati.

Open Rhinoplasty
Open and closed rhinoplasties refer to the two surgical approaches that can be performed with a nose job.
An external, or open rhinoplasty, implements a trans-columellar incision that connects the incision between the two nostrils. This incision allows the nasal skin to be folded back, allowing Dr Frati to view the natural setting of your noses’ framework. This view will allow Dr Frati to better understand your nose and make minor adjustments that will yield a big result.
Closed Rhinoplasty
In an endonasal rhinoplasty, or closed nose job, all incisions made are within the nostrils. No incisions are visible on the outside of the nose, allowing visible scars to be avoided. This approach will be taken slowly, allowing Dr Frati to work carefully since the procedure is done through narrow openings.
Both of these techniques will be evaluated and discussed in your private consultation with Dr Frati.
Benefits
The primary advantage of a nose job is to restore complete facial harmony and balance. Correcting a bump along your nose’s bridge or turning the tip of your nose upward can have a huge impact on the symmetry of your face.
This surgery also has the added benefit of improving the nose’s function. If you have a deviated septum or other nasal issue, a rhinoplasty will correct that problem. The goal of a rhinoplasty will not only be to improve the proportion of your nose with the rest of your face, it is also to help you breathe better. Improving your ability to breath through your nose can help you sleep better as well as benefit your everyday life. A nose job can help you improve your life and help you achieve a natural, attractive appearance.
Candidates

Procedure

Small incisions will be made discreetly within the contours of the nose. Through these incisions, the underlying network of the nose will be accessed. Improvements will be made carefully and with the goal of symmetry in mind. Once the procedure is complete, the incision(s) will be closed and bandaged. A nose splint may be needed for a few days to ensure the results set beautifully.

Each patient is given an aftercare package with instructions. These instructions will include how you should sleep after treatment, how to care for incisions, and many other details that will help you achieve a great outcome! Our office provides care for patients to ensure good results even long after their procedure.
Dr Frati recommends patients take about two to three weeks off from work to recover. Bruising and swelling will take a little while to go down and may impact your vision. Any discomfort felt from these symptoms can be controlled with prescribed medications.
A follow-up appointment with Dr Frati will allow him to examine your nose and make sure you are healing well. These appointments are a crucial step in the recovery process and ensure your results will be ideal.
