Nose is the most prominent landmark of the face and contributes a significant part to the facial esthetics. Often times, the nose is not properly shaped because of defective development of the bony or cartilagenous skeleton of the nose. The nasal deformity can also be due to facial injuries.
These developmental or acquired nasal deformities can be corrected by surgical procedures known as rhinoplasty.The surgeon evaluates all parts of the nose through direct examination and photographs taken at different angles to make a plan for that particular individual.
