Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular plastic surgeries in Dr. Ioannidis’ office. It aims to correct nasal imperfections, straighten the crooked diaphragm as well as reduce or increase the volume of the nose in order to achieve balance and symmetry on the face.

Usually, when we don’t like something in our body, we cover it with the appropriate clothes.

his is not possible when in comes to facial features, but fortunately there are ways to change them. Dr. Ioannidis has performed a wide range of rhinoplasty surgeries, which have made many customers happy.

The change can be from discreet to very intense. In any case, rhinoplasty can change your nose, so that it blends more harmoniously with the face and brings a better balance with the rest of your features. It can also boost your confidence significantly!

Rhinoplasty results to a beautiful nose with a natural look, which will highlight the features of your face. Our aim is to boost your confidence so that you can show off your best self! Rhinoplasty is usually chosen for aesthetic reasons but there are cases where it is performed for health reasons such as difficulty breathing or deformity due to injury. The most common aesthetic reasons for a patient to choose rhinoplasty are:
  • Nose tilts down
  • Protruding bridge
  • A symmetrical nose
  • Nose deformed due to a previous injury
  • Nose is big compared to the rest of your facial features
  • Nostrils are unusually large
  • The most common health reasons are:
Respiratory problems  — Congenital respiratory problems are common in many patients seeking relief. Rhinoplasty can significantly and permanently improve respiratory function.
In order to proceed with this operation, you should:
  • Be at least 13 years old and your facial development should be complete
  • Be healthy
  • Do not smoke
  • The reason for making this change should be purely your personal desire and not the pressure of others.
  • Have realistic expectations from the operation
There are two rhinoplasty techniques followed by surgeons. In the case of closed rhinoplasty, the incisions are made inside the nostrils. With open rhinoplasty, the incision is made at the base of the nose, on the skin between the nostrils. With both methods, the surgeon lifts the skin that covers the nose and intervenes in the shape of the bone and cartilage in order to achieve the desired result. If the patient has a crooked diaphragm, the surgeon adjusts the placement of the diaphragm and the internal structures of the nose in order to facilitate breathing. If the patient wishes, the surgeon can also intervene in the shape of the nostrils, which would be done during the last stage of the operation. The whole process takes one to two hours.
For a short time after the operation, there may be swelling, bruising, pain, possible bleeding and a headache. Most patients feel better after two days and return to work in about a week. In some cases, swelling may reappear from time to time during the first year. It is usually most visible in the morning and subsides during the day. During recovery, contact lenses can be used normally, but if you wear glasses, you may need to avoid contact with the nose. Patients who have realistic expectations of rhinoplasty are particularly pleased with the new appearance of their face. The results and degree of change depend on the structure and specific anatomy of the nose, as well as the shape of the face, the quality of the skin and the age of each patient.
Usually, no side effects are seen after rhinoplasty. In some rare cases there may be a reaction to anaesthesia and bleeding.
