Rhinology, Sinus & Nasal Surgery
Medical and surgical care for the nose and sinuses, including nasal obstruction, sinus infection and nasal reshaping.
About this service
Nose surgery may be needed for appearance, previous fracture, hay fever, sinus infection, nasal polyps, septal deviation and turbinate enlargement. Nasal surgery is performed to optimise the size and shape of the nose in order to achieve harmonious facial proportions.
Obstruction to your nose can have a significant impact on your quality of life. A major function of the nose is to filter air through the nasal passages; reducing or stopping the amount of air that you are able to breathe can affect your overall health, and can result in snoring.
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves reshaping the nose. It can be a cosmetic procedure performed to improve the appearance of the nose, a medically necessary procedure to improve nasal breathing, or a combination of both. The goal of rhinoplasty surgery is to create a natural and well-proportioned nose without sacrificing breathing function.
