Rhinoplasty – Nose Reshaping Surgery

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a cosmetic and/or functional surgery that reshapes the nose to improve facial harmony and breathing. It can correct size, shape, symmetry, and internal structural issues like a deviated septum.
 

Dorsal Hump (bump on the bridge)
Wide or bulbous tip
Droopy tip
Crooked or deviated nose
Wide nasal base / flared nostrils
Post-trauma deformities
Breathing difficulties (septal deviation)
Congenital deformities

​Cosmetic Rhinoplasty
Enhances the appearance of the nose for better balance with facial features.
✅ Functional Rhinoplasty / Septorhinoplasty
Improves airflow and corrects breathing issues along with shape enhancement.
✅ Revision Rhinoplasty
Corrects previous unsatisfactory surgeries for improved function and aesthetics.
✅ Ethnic Rhinoplasty
Maintains natural ethnicity while refining nasal shape.
✅ Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
Filler-based reshaping for minor corrections (temporary results).

General or Local Anaesthesia with Sedation
Duration: 1.5 to 3 hours
Typically day-care surgery
Approach
Closed Rhinoplasty – hidden incisions inside nostrils
Open Rhinoplasty – tiny incision across columella for precise correction
Surgical approach is selected based on required modifications.
Recovery Timeline
Time    What Happens
1 week    Splint removal; bruising significantly reduces
2–4 weeks    Social downtime completed; swelling reduces
3–6 months    Tip swelling gradually settles
1 year    Final refined result visible
Immediate improvement is visible, but full refinement takes 6–12 months.

Pre-Surgery Planning
Dr. Singla emphasizes thorough consultations, using advanced imaging and careful analysis of nasal anatomy. He educates patients on possibilities, risks, and realistic outcomes, building a custom treatment strategy for each individual.

​

Recovery Process
Postoperative care involves expected swelling, occasional bruising, and mild discomfort, which diminish with time. Instructions include using a nasal splint, avoiding strenuous activity, and maintaining proper hygiene. Final results emerge gradually as healing progresses.
