Rhinoplasty

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

Rhinoplasty, or ‘nose job’ or ‘nose shaping’ as it is popularly called is a plastic surgery procedure performed on the nose to enhance its appearance. The word ‘Rhinoplasty’ has been derived from Greek words  Rhinos, ‘Nose’ and Plassein, ‘to shape.’
Reshaping of one’s nose can completely transform the balance of one’s facial features and can dramatically changes one’s appearance. The aesthetic improvements that a plastic surgeon can create with the surgical procedure of rhinoplasty include decreasing or increasing the size of the nose, altering the tip or bridge of the nose, and narrowing or changing the shape of the nostrils.
