Primary Rhinoplasty

Transform Your Profile with Confidence

Primary rhinoplasty is the first nasal surgery performed to enhance the appearance or function of the nose. During this procedure, the bone, cartilage, and soft tissue are reshaped to achieve a balanced, natural look that complements your facial structure, while also addressing any breathing issues.
The procedure typically lasts 2–3 hours and involves moderate complexity. While revision is rare, recovery requires patience and care.
