Rhinoplasty
Functional septorhinoplasty
Nasal function, structure and appearance are closely interlinked. All three components must be in balance to achieve a harmonious result.
The function of the nose (breathing, smell, immune defence, humidification of the air and the quality of the voice) is often underestimated by patients. At the ENT Centre Frankfurt, we place great emphasis on all aspects of a nose job, aiming not only for aesthetic success but also to achieve a stable and fully functional nose.
A rhinoplasty can alter the entire expression of a face. It is therefore important that the nose ‘fits’ – i.e. during a correction, the overall harmony of the face must be taken into account and your personal preferences incorporated. With the help of computer-assisted animation, we can visualise the planned correction using your photograph (imaging system).
The operation takes 1 to 2 hours; we perform the procedure under light general anaesthesia on an outpatient or inpatient basis. Recovery takes just under 2 weeks. You should take it easy during the first week.
