Rhinoplasty is one of the most common procedures in cosmetic surgery that treats a nose that is too long, wide, hooked or swollen,...
It consists in changing the shape of the nose according to a rational and thoughtful request approved and advised by a confirmed cosmetic surgeon.
Cosmetic surgery of the nose, must preserve the breathing function of the nose and the perception of odors, it is for this reason that the name of a nose operation is "septorhinoplasty".
Anatomical components of the nose:
The skin, covering the nose may be more or less thick, which will condition the postoperative deflation.
The cartilages of the nose, are found at the level of the nasal tip and the nostrils. They form the resistance frame that allows the dilation at the time of the passage of the air, these are the alar cartilages.
There is also a cartilaginous support at the level of the middle third of the nose called the "triangular cartilages".
The bones of the nose, which are located on the upper half of the nose and form a rigid corridor, which can suffer fractures as a result of trauma or as a result of impacts during violent sports activities, such as boxing.
The nasal septum, is a central and deep bearing wall, composed both of cartilage more or less deviated congenitally, and a bone portion that supports the bones, this structure is called the vomer.
We find in depth, attached to the side walls of the nose, the nasal turbinates which are a kind of radiators heating the air that passes, they can represent an obstacle when they are hypertrophied.
Reconstructive and cosmetic surgery of the nose must therefore correct the abnormalities of each of its anatomical components.
