Rhinoplasty, or nasal surgery, is one of the most common of all plastic surgery procedures performed today, and some say it is one of the most intricate, and perhaps the most difficult, of cosmetic surgeries. Because the nose tends to be the most defining characteristic of the face, even the slightest of alterations can greatly improve upon one's image.

Complaints, corrections, and rhinoplasty nasal surgery

The most common complaints about the nose, stated by those seeking rhinoplasty, include the following:

Rhinoplasty surgery can alter the look of the nose by reducing or increasing the size, changing the shape of the tip or bridge of the nose, changing the angle between the nose and upper lip, or narrowing the span of the nostrils. Rhinoplasty can also correct a birth defect or injury, or help to relieve breathing problems.

The best candidate for rhinoplasty is a person looking to improve upon the way that they look and are in good physical health, are psychologically stable, and have realistic expectations. Rhinoplasty is not only about a patient's wishes, but about what surgery can realistically offer as well. Many surgeons will not operate on children or teenagers, preferring instead to wait until after they have completed their growth spurt, which tends to occur around the age of 16 for girls, and after the age of 19 for boys.
