Types of Nose Jobs You Can Get
There are different nose job procedures you can get depending on your cosmetic and medical requirements.

General Types of Nose Jobs
These are the general techniques of nose jobs.
Open rhinoplasty
Open rhinoplasty is a type of rhinoplasty that is used to reshape your nose, improve symmetry, and give it a balanced appearance. In this nose job, the surgeons make the incisions on the underside of your nose in a Z-shape between the nostrils.
The incision leaves scars behind, but they’re not so visible. By following the post-care tips given by the surgeon, you can easily get rid of the scars within a few days or up to a month.
It’s a complex surgery and may take a longer time to heal, but it offers long-lasting results.
Closed rhinoplasty
Closed rhinoplasty is the best surgery for the patient who wants a faster recovery and also fewer structural changes to their nose.
If you just want to refine the nasal appearance slightly, narrow the nasal bridge, or correct the mild symmetry, this rhinoplasty type is your way to go. In it, the incisions are made inside the nose, and no scars are left behind.
Since the incisions are inside, the surgeons don’t get a good view. Therefore, this surgery should only be performed for minor changes.
Revision rhinoplasty
If the previous rhinoplasty procedure didn’t satisfy or made any mistakes, then revision rhinoplasty is used to correct those. It’s a complex rhinoplasty type that corrects the cosmetic or medical deformities that the previous surgery left.
Since the surgeons have to work on the already compromised structure of the nose, its complexity is increased. It carries a lot of risks as well, and therefore, we recommend that you hire an experienced surgeon to do it. The healing time could be longer, and the swelling and the bruising are part of it.

Tip Plasty
Tip plasty is a nose tip job that only changes the shape of the tip, raises the tip or refines its size and definition.
It’s less involved and gives you a faster recovery. The techniques used to perform it could be open or closed rhinoplasty, depending on the preferences of the patient or requirements.
Liquid rhinoplasty
Liquid rhinoplasty is a non-surgical procedure in which fillers are applied to your nose. It smoothes out the bumps, lifts the nose tip, and also corrects the symmetry of the nose.
Since it doesn’t require incisions, the recovery is faster, with no pain and swelling. It takes less time to perform this surgery compared to other types of nose jobs. The results of this surgery are temporary and last only for 6 to 12 months.
Septorhinoplasty
Septorhinoplasty is a specialized rhinoplasty type that strengthens your nose structure, fixes the deformities, and also improves the functionality of the septum. It also fixes the deviated septum, improving your breathing issues as well.
This surgery is great for patients who want to get a more balanced, defined, and lifted nose, along with better breathing and functionality.
Specialised Nose Job Types
These are some specialised nose job options that you can consider for yourself.

Female Rhinoplasty
Female rhinoplasty is a specialized procedure for females and is used to refine the nose tip, narrow the bridge, and add a gentle slope.
The purpose of the surgery is to give a refined and balanced appearance to the female nose while keeping their characteristics intact. The experts precisely do it to make the nose look natural and not overdone.
Male Rhinoplasty
Male rhinoplasty is for men to give them a masculine appearance while fixing issues like a bump or crooked nose.
This surgery doesn’t make the nose too small or too big, just a balanced and sharp one that keeps the man’s characteristics unchanged.
After the surgery, the nose has a well-defined tip, straight bridge, and also looks blended with the man’s facial harmony of the man.
Since the anatomy of the nose and the requirements of men are different from those of women, a male rhinoplasty specialist surgeon should perform this procedure.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty
The ethnic rhinoplasty is another specialised rhinoplasty type that improves your nose while preserving its ethnic identity and characteristics. It can narrow down the wide nose, lift the tip, or refine the bridge.
The idea is not to change the person’s appearance but only fix the deformities and make the nose more defined.
Every person has different ethnic structures, and hence, the experienced surgeons in this rhinoplasty should perform it.
Teen Rhinoplasty
If you’re a teenager and have any breathing issues or any deformity in the nose, then teen rhinoplasty can help you with those. It’s a specialised teenager rhinoplasty that is usually performed on 15 to 18-year-old teens.
For this surgery to succeed and get done safely, the nose of teen has to be fully grown. It can correct the hump, crookedness, or refine the tip of the nose.
Micro-Rhinoplasty
As you can guess by the name, it’s a micro rhinoplasty surgery that is done without making big or deep incisions. It fixes only the minor irregularities of the nose. It’s performed under local anaesthesia and is quite quick.
The recovery of this surgery is also faster, as it does not require much reshaping or modification of the nose.
