What is rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is surgery that alters the shape of your nose. Also called a nose job, your surgery is customizable according to your personal goals and needs. It can alter the inside, outside, or both. The surgery involves a detailed planning process with photographs, a physical examination, possible X-rays, and a candid discussion about your goals and expectations. 

The team at Massachusetts Ear, Nose and Throat Associates specializes in planning and performing rhinoplasties. While planning your surgery, they consider your natural facial structure and anatomy. Even though you may have some particular goals in mind for what you want the result to look like, it’s best to go with a plan that complements your natural features. 

What can rhinoplasty do?

Rhinoplasty surgery can make various alterations to the shape of your nose for cosmetic reasons. It can also treat structural abnormalities within the nose and improve your breathing by opening your airways a little more.
