Rhinoplasty is a nose reshaping surgery to improve the appearance of the nose and often to correct breathing problems. Because it is one of the most technically difficult procedures in cosmetic surgery, rhinoplasty requires a strong sense of aesthetics coupled with a profound understanding of anatomy to provide an attractive, natural-looking nose that functions properly. Secondary rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as revision rhinoplasty, requires exceptional analytical and surgical skill. Only surgeons with extensive training and significant rhinoplasty experience can restore breathing function and improve less-than-desirable results from previous nose surgery.
