Rhinoplasty
Discover new-found confidence with a nose procedure tailored to your goals.
What is Rhinoplasty?
A rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure, commonly called a “nose job,” that improves facial harmony and the proportions of your nose.
This surgery can effectively treat a misproportioned nose or irregular nasal tip that is asymmetrical, such as being excessively wide or long. It can also resolve bumps or depressions affecting the appearance.
It can also correct impaired breathing caused by deviations of the nose, which may include the midline portion (septum) or the bones themselves.
Enhance your confidence, appearance, or overall health with a rhinoplasty procedure.
During + After your Surgery
Anaesthesia Type
General Anaesthesia (patients are asleep).
Duration of Surgery
2-3 hours.
In/Outpatient
Patients go home the same day and are seen by Dr. Matic in 7 days for cast and suture removal.
Length of Recovery
Downtime is about a week, but some may need 10-14 days. The nose is generally healed in 6 weeks, and this is enough to return to normal activity, including sports.
Post-Operative Medication
Pain killers are often given as well as antibiotics.
Final Results
Final results appear in 3 months, but some swelling, especially in the tip, can take up to a year to fully resolve.
