Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery)

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at modifying the shape of the nose or correcting deformities that may be caused by injuries or congenital defects. However, the procedure is not limited to aesthetic aspects only; in some cases, surgical intervention may be required to address nasal breathing issues, a procedure known as septoplasty. This aims to restore the functional balance of the nose and improve breathing.

At Al-Abdali Hospital, we take pride in offering the latest solutions in rhinoplasty and nose correction, where our medical team combines extensive experience with advanced techniques to ensure outstanding results that meet our patients' expectations. Whether you're looking to improve the appearance of your nose or need to correct breathing problems caused by a deviated septum, we provide optimal care through a range of innovative surgical methods. We strive to provide a safe and comfortable treatment experience with minimal recovery time.

Types of Rhinoplasty Procedures at Al-Abdali Hospital

Rhinoplasty procedures vary depending on the purpose of the surgery and the method of execution. They include the following types:

Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty (Piezo)

This is one of the latest technologies offered by Al-Abdali Hospital for treating a deviated septum and performing cosmetic rhinoplasty. It uses advanced ultrasonic waves to reshape and sculpt the nose precisely.

During this procedure, a vibrating tool similar to a surgical scalpel is used to make precise modifications to the nasal bones and cartilage. This technique is ideal for making adjustments to the nasal bridge, allowing the doctor to achieve precise and effective results while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.

Closed Rhinoplasty

In this procedure, the surgeon makes small incisions inside the nose only, which helps reduce recovery time and swelling after the surgery, with no visible scars on the external skin.

Open Rhinoplasty

This procedure involves making external incisions between the nostrils, in addition to internal incisions. This provides the surgeon with a better view and allows for more precise adjustments to the nasal structure, resulting in more accurate and refined outcomes.

Septoplasty (Deviated Septum Correction)

Septoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting a deviated septum, which is the wall that divides the right and left nasal passages. A deviated septum occurs when the wall between the nostrils is crooked or tilted, causing a blockage in one or both nostrils, leading to difficulty breathing or other health issues.

Secondary Rhinoplasty

Secondary rhinoplasty is the name given to a nose surgery that follows an initial rhinoplasty. Secondary rhinoplasty is considered corrective surgery to improve upon the results of a previous cosmetic operation. Some also call secondary rhinoplasty "revision rhinoplasty," but revision rhinoplasty can also apply to third or fourth nose surgery. Some of the techniques involved in secondary rhinoplasty can include reshaping the nostrils or improving the structure of the nose for cosmetic or functional purposes. It can improve the outcome in failed previous rhinoplasty surgeries and it can enhance the patient satisfaction who are not happy with the the results of their primary rhinoplasty.

Nasal Reconstruction

Nasal reconstruction is used in cases of nasal loss or deformity due to diseases. It requires the patient to receive bone and cartilage grafts to reshape the external nose.

At Al-Abdali Hospital, each case is carefully and accurately evaluated to ensure the most appropriate treatment for every patient. The medical team begins by assessing the nose and the issues the patient is experiencing through precise examinations, such as nasal endoscopy or advanced CT scans.

Professional rhinoplasty pictures are taken in a professional photography studio which is one of the unique services at Al-Abdali Hospital.

Those pictures along with the detailed clinical and radiological evaluation will be utilized to fashion a personalized surgical plan which fits the patient needs and desires. This plan is discussed with the patients during a computer assisted simulation to the expected results after the surgery which helps our patients with their decisions.The treatment plan aims to achieve the best results, focusing on balancing both the aesthetic and functional aspects of the nose, enhancing patient comfort, and improving their quality of life.
