Proportion and balance determine symmetry and beauty
It is also about aesthetic appreciation and visual-spatial skills. Knowledge of
the correct proportions makes all the difference to nasal surgery results.
The ideal nose conforms to smooth triangular shapes, which is why the Nose
Clinic applies a system of triangles to achieve the optimum individualised
results for every patient.



- The lateral triangle or side view represents the outline of the ideal profile. The shape of the nose should not overlap the sides of the triangle.
- When viewed from the front, the triangle defines the outline of the ideal nose. Again, the nose should not overlap the outline of the triangle.
- Even when viewed from below, the nose should retain the triangular shape. The nostrils should not overlap the triangular outline.

1. Your nose should comfortably conform to the ideal triangle. We reshape it by trimming or repositioning the nasal bones and the upper and lower lateral cartilages. Incisions are made inside the nose.

5. We shape the tip of your nose by trimming the lower lateral cartilages.

Surgical Rhinoplasty: Correcting Nose Features
The goal of aesthetic nose surgery is to create a nose that is proportional to other parts of the face, has a good inhaling and exhaling function and is not recognized by others as a nose that has gone aesthetic surgery.
The most popular aesthetic surgery in our country is definitely rhinoplasty.

Taking into account, your facial structure and the physical properties of your nose, your doctor can provide you with an idea as to how your nose would look after the surgery by making changes on a digital image of your face. Prior to this operation the patient should be examined and the doctor should understand the expectations of the patient thoroughly and the doctor should provide the patient with feedback explaining to what extent these expectations can be met.Because every patient has a different skin, cartilage and bone structure, results of the operation would vary from patient to patient. Thus, your doctor will inform you as to the expected results based on your anatomic features.
Aesthetic nose surgery can be applied to any person aged 18 and above with no serious health conditions. These operations are done to correct not only the physical features but also airflow problems that prevent inhaling in patients.
These operations are usually carried out under general anesthesia. Depending on the nose structure and properties of the patient, the operation can be carried out with the closed or the open technique. With the open technique, an incision is made right under the nose but this heals quickly most of the time and only a barely noticeable scar remains. With the closed technique, on the other hand, all incisions required for the operation are made through the nose holes and no scars form.
After the surgery, the nose is covered with plaster cast and remains so for 7-10 days. And a stype is placed inside this cast. Because we mostly use silicone stypes at our clinic, the patients don’t experience the same pain as they do with cloth stypes during stype removal.
Following the surgery, there might be bruises and swellings around the nose and the eyes and these would usually heal within 3-4 weeks. However, it takes around 3-6 months for the swellings and hardness inside the nose that are invisible from outside to heal and for the nose to have a gentler look.
What are some undesirable conditions that might occur after the surgery?
Some of the unwanted conditions are bleeding, infection and anesthetic complications and sometimes a second retouching might be necessary in 5-10% of the patients.
Medical Rhinoplasty: Botox and Dermal Fillers
More and more Surgeons are moving away from traditional Rhinoplasty (Corrective Nose Surgery) in favour of less invasive options with Botox and Dermal Fillers.
Surgical Rhinoplasty is an extremely popular plastic surgery procedure worldwide. The surgery itself unfortunately is extremely complicated and the risks are significant. Popularity versus time in theatre and risk has propelled the surgical world into finding faster, safer and more efficient ways to cosmetically alter a person’s nose.
Most Cosmetic Nose Surgery involves alteration to the bridge of the nose or the tip of the nose, or both. The dissection is complicated in the nose as the nasal scaffold of bone, muscle and cartilage all need to be manipulated, leading to increased risk and long recovery times. This same scaffold however is the perfect base to stabilise Botox and Dermal Fillers and more and more Doctors are turning to these non-surgical options to get their patients their desired cosmetic nose results.

The Medical Rhinoplasty
The non-surgical treatment of the nose or Medical Rhinoplasty has become of prime importance. During the procedure there is no change to the nasal scaffold and no risk of deformity. Also the products used in the Medical Rhinoplasty have significant clinical data detailing their safety.
There is of course sill some risk involved with the Medical Rhinoplasty and as a patient you need to seek out an experienced injector with an in depth knowledge of nasal anatomy. Knowledge of Nasal anatomy will allow your Aesthetic Physician to obtain a good aesthetic result by combining the mobile elements in the nose with the static bone structure and surrounding facial features.

Medical Rhinoplasty can be used as a precursor to invasive surgery but it is becoming more and more popular as a regular treatment option. In combination Botox and Dermal Fillers can be used as a non-permanent correction for:
Nose asymmetry
Deformity correction
Nose tip repositioning
Nostril repositioning
Nose Bridge straightening
Your nose after all takes up one third of the face and forms an integral part of facial aesthetics. It great to know that clinical papers are currently being presented promoting the Medical Rhinoplasty in favour of surgical intervention.
Nose Aesthetics: Facts about Rhinoplasty
The Keystone of the Face
The nose is located in the center of the ‘communication band’, that is, the area of the face where people first look at you, which also encompasses the eyes. For this reason, there is often some anxiety about its appearance.
Rhinoplasty – And The Nose You Want
A rhinoplasty will alter the shape and appearance of your nose. Rhinoplasty creates the new look by changing the underlying cartilage and bone. Nose surgery can make:
A large nose smaller
A wide nose thinner
A long nose shorter
Refine a big or drooping tip
Straighten a crooked alignment
In most rhinoplasty procedures, surgery removes a hump or re-builds a flat nose. The possibilities are endless and after a detailed consultation we tailor the operation that addresses your concerns. Importantly surgery to the nose
should enhance your airway.
