Aesthetic surgery of the face
The operation of the nose or rhinoplasty
The aesthetic surgery of the nose is the intervention that corrects nose imperfections, aesthetic and respiratory.
These morphological defects are often not well tolerated, especially during teenage years, and can disturb studies, social life and emotional state.
Rhinoplasty can be performed from age sixteen, and there is no theoretical age limit ; however, it is rare to undertake it after the age of sixty. It is to be noted that after the age of forty, this surgery has also a rejuvenating effect that is sometimes spectacular.
It is a delicate surgery necessitating a perfectly trained surgeon : this explains the frequency of imperfect noses, that have the appearance of “operated noses”. Badly done noses in general, with modern techniques, can be reconstructed with a new surgery.
