Rhinoplasty: What Is It?

Rhinoplasty is a procedure that can change the shape of the nose whether it appears too large for your face, has a bump on the bridge, is off-center or crooked. Nose surgery can also be used to correct an obstruction of the airways that impairs breathing.

Depending on the needs and desires of each rhinoplasty San Diego / La Jolla patient, Dr. Chasan performs either the closed or the open form of rhinoplasty. The closed method is performed by making incisions inside the nostrils. The open nose surgery is performed by making a small incision below the tip of the nose. Dr. Chasan works through these incisions to sculpt and shape the nose to the desired position.
