Nose shape and breathing
Rhinoplasty
Reshapes the nose for balance with the rest of your face, and can improve breathing at the same time. We favour preservation techniques that keep the natural support of the nose.

- Who it’s for
- Adults whose nose has finished growing and who want a refined, natural change. Breathing problems are assessed at the same consultation.
- How it’s done
- Through small incisions inside the nose and, when needed, one across the base. Cartilage is reshaped rather than removed where possible.
- Not for you if
- You smoke and can’t stop for six weeks around surgery, or you are looking for a dramatically different face.
Recovery,
week by week.
- Days 1–7
- Splint and swelling around the eyes. Short walks, head raised, no glasses.
- Day 7
- Splint off at the clinic. Most bruising has faded.
- Week 3
- Back to light exercise. Swelling keeps settling.
- Month 12
- The final shape, especially at the tip.

Times vary with each patient and procedure. Flying earlier than your surgeon clears you raises the risk of blood clots.
