Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure used to reshape the nose for aesthetic, structural or functional reasons. It can address concerns involving the size, shape, nasal bridge, tip, nostrils or asymmetry, while selected procedures can also improve breathing difficulties caused by structural problems such as a deviated septum. At Ambrosia Aesthetics, Dr. Siddharth Prakash provides cosmetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, with Rhinoplasty in Mumbai among his areas of expertise. His approach involves understanding the patient’s expectations, examining the nose and face, discussing achievable outcomes and developing an individualised surgical plan.
Rhinoplasty, commonly called a nose job, involves modifying the bone, cartilage, skin or a combination of these structures to alter the nose’s appearance or function. Depending on the patient’s needs, surgery may increase or decrease nasal size, smooth a dorsal hump, refine the tip, change nostril width, correct asymmetry or address certain breathing problems.
The procedure is not about selecting a completely new nose or copying another person’s features. Facial proportions, nasal anatomy, skin characteristics and functional requirements differ from one individual to another. Dr. Siddharth Prakash’s reference material emphasises realistic expectations and an understanding of what surgery can and cannot achieve.
For people considering Rhinoplasty in Mumbai, a detailed consultation is therefore an important part of deciding whether surgery is appropriate and which technique may be suitable.
