Ask anyone which of their facial features they like the least, and there’s a strong chance more than one of them will say their nose. It’s hardly surprising given how prominent the nose is on the face, which is why so many people choose to have a nose job.
Rhinoplasty, to give it its proper name, involves using a number of different cosmetic surgery procedures to get your nose into a shape you are happy with. As with any type of procedure, it’s crucial that you learn more about nose reshaping before deciding if it is the right choice for you.
What do you want out of the procedure?
The Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons reveals that people have several reasons for wanting a nose job. For some, it’s because they want to enhance their “facial harmony and self confidence”, while for others it’s for medical reasons such as impaired breathing. A number of people also choose rhinoplasty because of problems they’re having with their sinuses.
Nose reshaping can involve a variety of different techniques, each of which is designed to change your appearance. This can include changing the size of your nostrils, or smoothing out any imperfections in your skin.
The most important stage of nose reshaping is explaining to your surgeon what exactly you want to achieve. Some people think their nose is too big, while others are more interested in its shape. It doesn’t matter what your issue is, just make sure you relay your concerns to your surgeon, who will know how to deliver the results you’re expecting.
How common is rhinoplasty?
A survey carried out by the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) found that natural-looking rhinoplasty was the top trend of last year. What’s more, the group doesn’t believe its popularity will slow down any time soon.
“Due to the improving economy and increased consumer awareness, coupled with a growing comfort level with the safety and predictability of cosmetic treatments, we expect the demand for facial cosmetic procedures to continue to expand,” predicted President of the AAFPRS Edwin Williams.
There’s also the fact that many celebrities have been open about having nose jobs, which will only add fuel to demand. Jennifer Aniston and Megan Fox are among those to have undergone cosmetic surgery, showing that even the biggest name stars aren’t afraid of a little nose reshaping.
