Most requested surgeries: wide nose rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty surgery in most cases is motivated by aesthetic problems, and the wide nose is one of the most common. When a patient consults with Dr. Sahil Singla to perform a nose operation, planning the process is of great importance to him.

Causes of a Wide Nose

Cases with a large and wide nose are frequently characterized by having a nasal tip that protrudes excessively from the face and causes an imbalance between the beginning of the septum and the nasal tip.

There are many reasons why a patient may have a large and wide nose, almost always because the wing cartilages are converted. Another possible cause may be due to thick skin and wide bones, which make the nose look broad, at all angles.

Rhinoplasty results before and after wide nose

In general, the results of a wide nose rhinoplasty are very satisfactory, although the thickness of the skin can make these changes more subtle. The inflammatory process may last a little longer in people with thick skin and have a longer postoperative period depending on the technique used. 

Although the changes are immediate, the definitive results can be seen in 3 months from the wide and flat nose rhinoplasty. In the same way, it is convenient to take into account that there are different factors that can change the final result, such as the consistency of the cartilage, the type and thickness of the skin and the propensity for poor healing.

Wide nose surgery with Dr. Sahil Singla.

There are several techniques available to Dr. Sahil Singla plastic surgeon in Delhi to reduce a wide nasal tip, since the same problem can be solved with different approaches.

• Closed technical rhinoplasty: open rhinoplasty is a nasal approach technique for aesthetic purposes, with few modifications, it is appropriate for the reduction of small volumes. The plastic surgeon will intervene on the patient through the nostrils, refining the tip, with minimal trauma without leaving visible scars. In this procedure, the integrity of the lower lateral portion of the nose is left intact.

At the end of the procedure, a splint is placed on the outside of the nose or nasal plugs to protect the work done.
