Rhinoplasty, commonly known as nose surgery or a nose job, is a cosmetic and/or functional procedure designed to reshape, resize, or improve the structure of the nose. It can address aesthetic concerns—such as a hump on the bridge, a bulbous tip, or asymmetry—as well as correct breathing issues caused by a deviated septum or other structural problems.The surgery is highly customizable, tailored to each patient’s facial features and goals. It can enhance facial harmony, balance proportions, and improve self-confidence.

Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes about 1–3 hours. Most patients return to normal activities within 1–2 weeks, with swelling gradually subsiding over several months as the final shape of the nose refines. Whether for cosmetic enhancement or medical necessity, rhinoplasty is one of the most popular and transformative facial surgeries, offering natural-looking, long-lasting results when performed by an experienced surgeon.
