Although rhinoplasty is often described as a simple procedure, the decision-making behind it is more considered than it appears.
It involves more than just reshaping the nose. Structure, balance, and how the nose relates to the rest of the face are all important, as is nasal function. For some patients, breathing is a key consideration, while for others, facial proportion is the primary focus. Often, it is a combination of both.
Assessing these factors, and prioritising them accordingly, is central to the planning process and shapes how rhinoplasty is approached in practice.
