Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery)

Refining nose shape while maintaining facial balance and natural beauty

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes the nose to improve appearance, balance, and sometimes breathing. Dr. Muddappa P. P., an experienced Plastic & Cosmetic Surgeon in Bangalore, performs rhinoplasty with a focus on natural-looking results and long-term safety.

The nose plays a central role in facial appearance. Even small changes to its shape can make a significant difference to facial balance and confidence. Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the nose while maintaining harmony with the rest of the face.

At his practice in Bangalore, Dr. Muddappa P. P. offers personalised rhinoplasty procedures tailored to each patient’s facial structure, concerns, and expectations. The goal is never to create an artificial or overdone look, but to achieve a result that feels natural and suits the individual.

What Can Rhinoplasty Correct?

Rhinoplasty can address a wide range of aesthetic and functional concerns, including:

  • A prominent nasal hump
  • A wide or crooked nose
  • A drooping or bulbous nasal tip
  • Asymmetry or deviation of the nose
  • Nasal deformity after injury
  • Breathing difficulty due to internal nasal structure

In some cases, rhinoplasty can improve both appearance and breathing, offering functional as well as cosmetic benefits.

A Thoughtful and Personalised Approach

Every face is unique, and so is every nose. Dr. Muddappa begins with a detailed consultation to understand your concerns and desired outcome. Facial proportions, skin thickness, nasal structure, and overall balance are carefully assessed before planning surgery.

As a trained plastic and reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Muddappa combines surgical precision with an artistic eye. This allows him to reshape the nose while preserving strength, function, and long-term stability.

The Rhinoplasty Procedure

Rhinoplasty is usually performed under general anaesthesia. Depending on the case, the surgery may involve reshaping bone, cartilage, or both. Incisions are placed carefully, often inside the nose or in discreet areas, to minimise visible scarring.

The procedure typically takes a few hours. After surgery, a nasal splint is placed to support healing and maintain the new shape.

Recovery and Healing

Initial swelling and bruising around the nose and eyes are common and gradually reduce over 1 - 2 weeks. Most patients return to routine activities within this period, although strenuous activity should be avoided for a few weeks.

While early improvements are visible soon after surgery, final results continue to refine over several months as swelling settles completely. Clear aftercare instructions and follow-up visits are part of the treatment plan.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty may be suitable for individuals who:

  • Are unhappy with the shape or size of their nose
  • Have breathing problems related to nasal structure
  • Have realistic expectations about results
  • Are in good overall health

During consultation, Dr. Muddappa will guide you on whether rhinoplasty is the right option or if alternative treatments may be better suited.
