Rhinoplasty in Pune (Nose Job)
Rhinoplasty (RIE-no-plas-tee) is a surgical procedure of reshaping nasal parts to achieve a shape that suits one’s face while eliminating any breathing issues. It is a highly customised plastic surgery that is designated for either reconstructive or cosmetic purposes.
Reconstructive rhinoplasty is intended to rectify congenital deformities which cause breathing problems and reforming the nasal structure after a traumatic accident.
On the other hand, cosmetic rhinoplasty focuses on improving the visual appearance of the nose to be proportionate to one’s face by eliminating defects such as flared nostrils, irregular bumps, distorted septum, etc. However, in many cases, a cosmetic nasal procedure ends up resolving medical breathing problems as well.

What Are The Types Of Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty is a generally customisable procedure, and it varies from patient to patient. However, many cases of nasal deformities have specific causes, and hence, are more commonly treated than the general approach. Following are some of the common types of rhinoplasties performed today:
This is a rhinoplasty procedure specifically performed the septum of our nose. Commonly known as the nasal bridge, the septum is made of the long bone and cartilage that connects the nose to the face dividing the nostrils. The surgeon removes or adds cartilage tissues for reposition the septum precisely at the centre of the nose.
Also known as alaplasty, it is performed to correct the size and shape of one’s nostril wedges to suit the nose. During this procedure, the surgeon may reduce the wedges to make them small and less flared, or add tissues to increase the width of the nostrils. Being a relatively less invasive procedure than a total rhinoplasty, it requires less recovery time
As the name suggests, a Tip Plasty is only performed to reshape the tip of a nose without disturbing its other parts. It may be performed to reduce a wide or bulgy nose tip and making it proportionate with the nose
What Should I Expect During a Consultation for Rhinoplasty Surgery?
The plastic surgeon will conduct a thorough consultation to determine your general fitness for a surgical procedure. You’ll be expected to disclose any of your ongoing medical conditions, medications, and allergies. You must also inform the surgeon of your drug use, like smoking, drinking, or herbal remedies that you take regularly.
The surgeon may also take photographs of your nose for future reference. You can ask any questions to the surgeon to learn more about your condition and the surgeon’s experience in treating such conditions.
You can ask the surgeon to show you some ‘before-and-after’ pictures to get an idea of what the final results usually look like. If you still aren’t sure, don’t feel shy to mention that you may need a second opinion for your own satisfaction before opting for nose surgery in Pune.
How Is The Nose Correction Surgery Performed?
Your nose correction procedure will be performed differently based on the anatomy of your nose and the parts to be treated. However, there are two fundamental approaches to performing a rhinoplasty:
Closed Surgery
A closed rhinoplasty involves making incisions on the inside of the nostrils to access the cartilage and the bone. It is best suited for making minor adjustments to the septum and nostrils without making any changes to its upper region. The internal incisions hide the scars, and there are no visible marks on the nose during and after recovery.
Open Surgery
When the surgeon needs to make significant alterations to the nasal parts, an open rhinoplasty approach is used to make an incision at the bottom of the nose at the septum. This allows the surgeon to access the entire interior of the nose. Though the incision is external, it is skillfully made along the natural creases of the bottom of the nose, hiding the scar after recovery.
How Much Does Rhinoplasty Cost In Pune?
Since the rhinoplasty procedure is personalised to suit an individual’s nose, its total expense will also vary greatly. The extent of nasal repairs you would need is only one factor while the other factors which would decide your total rhinoplasty cost in Pune based clinics include:
- The surgical approach used
- The general fee of the surgeon and the clinical facilities
- Prescribed medications
- Any follow up sessions or secondary surgeries required
That said, you must always consider the surgeon’s experience and understanding capability before their fees, as the best rhinoplasty results can be achieved only with an experienced surgeon’s hand. Our plastic surgeons at Deccan Clinic are highly regarded as the best rhinoplasty surgeons for this very reason.
