Rhinoplasty Before & After

These before-and-after photographs show the outcome of rhinoplasty carried out at the same time as chin implant surgery. The nasal shape was adjusted to improve the side profile alongside the increased chin projection. Combining rhinoplasty with chin augmentation can address the balance of the profile in a single operation.

These before-and-after photographs show a rhinoplasty with dorsal hump correction. The hump was reduced to create a smoother nasal bridge, taking care to avoid over-reduction and to maintain the structural support of the nose, which matters for both the appearance and the long-term stability of the result.

This young lady had broken her nose twice in sports injuries, with her first fracture reset at the age of 16.

Surgeries:

• First procedure: a septorhinoplasty, including hump reduction, complex septoplasty, batten graft, osteotomies, auto spreaders and cartilage graft.
• Sixteen months later, a revision rhinoplasty involving a right in-fracture to correct asymmetry and an adipofascial graft to soften the tip.

Revision surgery is sometimes necessary to address residual asymmetry after complex nasal trauma.

This patient’s main concerns about her nose were her side profile and feeling her nose was too large overall. Additionally, she felt her tip was drooping. She had an open rhinoplasty procedure with a reduction of the bump on the side profile. She had tip refinement to narrow the tip. Results are shown at 6 months. There is still residual swelling at the tip at this stage. Tip swelling can take up to 18 months to settle fully.

This patient had a rhinoplasty procedure at another clinic. She was left with an unsatisfactory result. She underwent revision rhinoplasty to correct the tip deformity she had. Results are shown at six months.

This lady’s main concern was the bump on the side profile of her nose. Additionally, she had a degree of septal deviation causing some squinting to her nose. She had an open septorhinoplasty procedure (correction of the bump, refinement of the tip and straightening of her septum). The results are shown at six months after surgery.

This patient wanted to have refinement of a bulbous nasal tip. Results shown 6 months after open tip rhinoplasty.

The rhinoplasty photos below are of a patient who had an open rhinoplasty to correct a mild bump on the nose. She also had a deviated septum (with some breathing problems) that was corrected.

The patient below felt that the tip of her nose was prominent. She underwent an open tip rhinoplasty to reduce the projection of her nose. The bridge of her nose did not require any work. The outcome is shown at six months.

This patient did not like the “bump” on her nose. She had an open rhinoplasty. Results are shown at six months.

This patient has had a reduction of a ‘bump’ on her nose and refinement of her nasal tip via an open rhinoplasty.

The photos below are of a patient who had a reduction of a nasal dorsal hump as well as tip reduction. Note that the soft tissue of her tip is thickened (sebaceous skin) and that this will only ever partially respond to nose surgery.

The patient below had an open rhinoplasty to reduce a mild dorsal hump and to narrow the nose and refine the tip.

The images below are of a patient who had an open rhinoplasty to correct a dorsal hump. She also has significant work done on the tip of her nose which included the use of on-lay cartilage grafts. Results are shown ten months postoperatively.

The before and after photos below are of a patient who had an open rhinoplasty to correct a dorsal hump and to refine the tip of the nose.

The patient below had an open rhinoplasty to correct a minor dorsal hump and to correct an asymmetric bulbous tip.

The nose job photos below are those of a patient who underwent open tip rhinoplasty. An open approach was used because work was required on the nasal tip as well as dorsal hump reduction and in fractures.

The nose job photos below are those of a patient who underwent closed rhinoplasty. Results are shown eight months postoperatively.

The following patient had an open rhinoplasty. She requested subtle changes to decrease the projection of her nose and to improve the junction of the base of the nose and the upper lip (the columellar labial angle). You will see that in the postoperative side profile the upper lip appears longer.
