Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty in Melbourne is available at Define Dermatology & Aesthetics with Specialist Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon Mr Ian Loh. Mr Loh provides thorough, personalised consultations to discuss whether rhinoplasty is appropriate for your individual circumstances, goals, and anatomy.

What is rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that alters the shape or structure of the nose. It may be considered for aesthetic reasons, or to address functional concerns such as breathing difficulties caused by a deviated septum or other structural issues.

Like all surgical procedures, rhinoplasty carries risks. Mr Loh will explain these in full during your consultation so you can make a fully informed decision.

Am I a suitable candidate?

Suitability for rhinoplasty is assessed on an individual basis. During your consultation Mr Loh will review your medical history, nasal anatomy, and personal goals to determine whether surgery is appropriate for you.

Surgery is not suitable for everyone and Mr Loh will provide honest, individualised advice based on your circumstances.

What does the procedure involve?

Rhinoplasty is performed under general anaesthesia. The surgical approach varies depending on the changes being made and your individual anatomy. Mr Loh will explain the technique he recommends and why during your consultation.

Recovery and aftercare

Recovery from rhinoplasty varies between individuals and typically involves swelling and bruising in the initial weeks. Mr Loh and his team will provide detailed post-operative instructions and support throughout your recovery. Specific recovery timelines will be discussed during your consultation.
