As with other parts of the country, Rhinoplasty is a very popular plastic surgery procedure in San Diego. San Diego rhinoplasty is a fairly common procedure, surgically reshaping the nose for either aesthetic, reconstructive, or functional purposes, or all three. Good candidates for rhinoplasty, or nose surgery, are those who are unhappy with the appearance, proportion, or certain features of their nose in relation to the face. Common qualities of an “unattractive” nose include a large “hump” or a bulbous tip. Rhinoplasty can remove a hump and narrow and reform the tip and overall shape of the nose. Even the slightest changes to the nose can drastically affect the appearance of the face. It can help alleviate breathing problems also.

Who is a good candidate for a Rhinoplasty or Nose Surgery?

• If you have a nose that is cosmetically unattractive or does not "fit" with other facial features.
• If you want a more attractive nasal shape.
• If you want your nose to be in better proportion to other facial features.
• If you have an abnormal appearance of the nose as a result of birth defects, injury, or disease.
