All 18 Clinics that provide Rhinoplasty in Dublin County

Changing the shape of the nose can dramatically improve a person’s appearance. Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular forms of plastic surgery and transforms the social experiences of many. The nose can be reduced in size, its profile altered and damage by accident or injury repaired.

Procedure

Several variations of surgery exist, catering for different needs. In many cases it is possible to hide all signs of surgery by operating from inside the nostril itself. Incisions can also be made unobtrusively at the sides of nostrils or in the skin that separates the nostrils. In all forms, once the incisions have been made, the skin is lifted from the underlying cartilage.

Reshaping this cartilage alters the shape of the nose: material can be removed or sculpted and in some cases additional material or implants can be used to build up areas. After sculpting and closure, splints or another form of support maintain the new shape until healing is completed.

Length

The procedure is usually completed within 2 hours but may last longer in some cases.

Recovery

A day’s bed rest is necessary after the procedure. Small amounts of bleeding may occur in the first days following the surgery. Initial discomfort should subside after a few days. Swelling and bruising will remain for about 2 weeks.

Risks

There are few risks associated with this procedure. Scarring is minimal and in most cases hidden from view. There is a small chance of infection as with all operations. Healing cannot be predicted with total accuracy and in a small number of cases irregular settling of the cartilage may necessitate a subsequent procedure.
