Types of Rhinoplasty

Functional Rhinoplasty

As the name indicates this type of rhinoplasty helps to address functional defects of the nose which can include:

Breathing problems due to obstructed nasal airways.
Disfigurement of the nose due to an accident or trauma.
Congenital structural defects such as cleft nasal deformities require rhinoplasty along with a cleft lip correction.

In Rhinoplasty Surgery in Mumbai, the surgeon usually makes changes in the bone, cartilage, and the skin of the nose to relieve the patient from the aforementioned conditions.

Cosmetic or Aesthetic Rhinoplasty

A large number of rhinoplasty procedures worldwide are performed to make the nose look more aesthetically pleasing by ensuring that it suits or complements other facial features. This may include changing the shape or size of the nose. Aesthetic surgery of the nose requires personalizations that only an expert & experienced rhinoplasty surgeon can provide. Nowadays, very advanced types of aesthetic nose surgeries like ‘Barbie Nose’ are commonly being requested. (See the Barbie Nose results here) Men are also wanting a straighter and sharper nose to enhance their personality, hence, cosmetic rhinoplasty is not just limited to women.

Turbinates reduction or dysfunction correction

The problem of stuffy nose is caused by nasal obstruction due to enlarged turbinates. In such a condition, the person is forced to breathe through the mouth and feels a constant discomfort in breathing. Other problems like sleep apnea, snoring, headaches are also common complaints in such cases. So, turbinate rhinoplasty is performed to remove excess tissue that have become swollen either due to allergies or other irritants to restore normal breathing function.

Projection Adjustment Rhinoplasty

Along with the shape & size of the nose, its projection also plays a crucial role to make it look aesthetically pleasing. So, this type of rhinoplasty is either done to reduce the projection of the nose by trimming the cartilage or to increase projection by adding cartilage.

Osteotomy or repairing Nasal fractures

Osteotomy is a procedure where the nasal bone is cut to modify its alignment. It is performed to straighten the nasal pyramid which leads to an effective way of breathing.

Septoplasty or Correcting a Deviated Septum

As the name suggests, this is a type of rhinoplasty which is done to correct a deviated septum. Deviated septum leads to difficulty in breathing and surgery is the only way to fix it.

Tip Rotation and Reduction

This is a type of rhinoplasty which is performed to reshape the tip of the nose by modifying the cartilage. It is mainly done when the nose lacks rotation and this is corrected by paying special attention to the base of the nose.

Alarplasty or Nasal Width Reduction

An Alarplasty is performed by the doctor to reduce the width of the nasal base thereby making the angles of this triangle steeper and making the nostrils meet the face. This is more popular amongst women.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty

The shape of the nose also varies as per one’s ethnicity. So, many times when a person opts for rhinoplasty, he/she still wants to retain the unique characteristics of their nose. Ethnic rhinoplasty helps to change the shape of the nose to improve the facial appearance. This is a very popular treatment among those individuals whose ethnic facial features include a broad nose mainly including people from African, Asian, Hispanic or Middle Eastern descent.
