Rhinoplasty: redefine the balance and elegance of your face

Combining surgical precision and artistic sense, our experts design each rhinoplasty as a unique work. The objective is to respect your identity while enhancing the lines of your face. Carried out in a refined and confidential setting, this intervention offers you the opportunity to reveal a more harmonious and confident version of yourself.
What is rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at reshaping the nose to improve its appearance and/or functionality. This technique can correct a wide variety of blemishes, whether they are related to aesthetics, breathing, or trauma.
Objectives of the intervention
• Aesthetic improvement
Rhinoplasty makes it possible to refine the shape of the nose, to correct a hump or a deviation, and to harmonize its proportions with the rest of the face.
• Functional improvement
In case of breathing difficulty linked to an internal deformity, functional rhinoplasty restores fluid and natural breathing.
Differentiation between aesthetic and functional rhinoplasty
• Cosmetic rhinoplasty
Designed to change the shape and contours of the nose, this procedure aims to improve the overall appearance of the face while maintaining a natural look.
• Functional rhinoplasty
Intended to correct internal problems, such as a deviation in the nasal septum, this intervention improves breathing while respecting the visual aspect of the nose.
Thanks to their expertise, our surgeons combine these two approaches when necessary, in order to fully meet the aesthetic and functional expectations of each patient.

Before the intervention
Rhinoplasty starts with a thorough consultation with our surgeons. During this exchange, a precise analysis of expectations and needs is carried out. A complete medical check-up is also carried out in order to guarantee your safety.
Our experts take the time to answer all your questions, define the objectives of the intervention and explain each step of the process to you.
The intervention
Rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia to ensure optimal comfort.
• Techniques used:
○ Open rhinoplasty : A small external incision, made at the level of the columella (area between the nostrils), allows easier access to the nasal structure for more complex corrections.
○ Structural or preservation
The technique chosen depends on the nature of the corrections to be made. The procedure generally lasts between 1 and 2 hours.
After the intervention
The follow-up procedures are simple, but require some precautions:
○ A thermoformed splint is placed on the nasal pyramid for 15 days, as are oily locks for 24 to 72 hours.
○ Swellings and bruises, which are common in the first few days, disappear gradually in 2 weeks.
○ Our specialists will provide you with specific recommendations, such as the use of dietary supplements and the avoidance of strenuous activities, to ensure optimal recovery.
Careful post-operative follow-up is ensured to monitor the evolution and answer all your questions.

The final results of rhinoplasty appear gradually. If the first changes are visible as soon as the swelling subsides (after 2 to 3 weeks), it is generally necessary to wait 6 to 12 months for the nasal tissue to fully stabilize and reveal the final appearance. This delay varies according to the complexity of the procedure and your ability to heal. Our experts will support you throughout this process to ensure that the final result meets your expectations.
Rhinoplasty is a painless procedure thanks to modern techniques and the anesthesia used. After surgery, you may experience slight discomfort or a feeling of pressure in your nose, but these discomforts are easily controlled with mild pain relievers. Our surgeons are committed to minimizing discomfort and making your experience as smooth as possible.
Yes, it is entirely possible to combine cosmetic rhinoplasty and functional correction. This approach makes it possible to reshape the appearance of the nose while treating respiratory problems, such as a deviated nasal septum. By combining these two objectives in a single intervention, our specialists guarantee an overall improvement, both aesthetically and functionally, while limiting the postoperative consequences.
The initial recovery after rhinoplasty lasts about 2 to 3 weeks, during which time swelling and bruising subside. You can resume light activities after one week, but it is recommended to wait 4 to 6 weeks before engaging in strenuous physical activities. Our experts will provide you with detailed recommendations to promote optimal and rapid recovery.
