Nose correction (rhinoplasty) in Zurich

Create your ideal profile.

The nose significantly shapes our face and therefore our overall expression. As a central element of the face, it can make a decisive contribution to whether we perceive our appearance as harmonious. In cases of disharmony or dissatisfaction, our nose correction (rhinoplasty) in Zurich can help to restore the aesthetic balance.

Rhinoplasty - the art of nose correction

Rhinoplasty is a plastic surgery procedure that focuses on reshaping and resizing the nose. Rhinoplasty can harmonize your nose with your face, regardless of its size, thickness, crookedness or curvature. Through precise incisions inside the nose or on the columella, the surgeon can shape the bone and cartilage structure of your nose to your advantage. In this way, a nose can be reduced, narrowed, straightened or built up. The aim is always to achieve a harmonious overall appearance.

Natural structure for a natural look

When constructing certain areas of the nose, such as the bridge of the nose, we prefer to use the body's own tissue. This ensures a particularly natural appearance and minimizes the risk of intolerance reactions that can occur when using foreign materials.

What to expect after rhinoplasty

After the operation, a small plaster splint is applied to support the new nasal framework and should be worn for about one to two weeks. We would like to inform you that swelling and bruising are possible during this time. However, once the plaster splint has been removed, you will be able to move around in public again without any problems.

Complementary interventions for an all-round harmonious result

A rhinoplasty alone can sometimes not provide the desired aesthetic result. In these cases, it is possible to combine a rhinoplasty with a nasal septum correction, a nasal bone lift, a sinus correction or a plastic correction of the outer nose at our clinic in Zurich. These additional procedures serve to achieve a completely harmonious and balanced facial appearance.

Minimal intervention for maximum effect

A nose correction does not always have to take the form of extensive surgery. Minor irregularities such as humps or dimples can also be treated with hyaluronic acid. The procedure is quick, minimally invasive and can be performed directly in our practice. We would like to point out that this treatment approach is a temporary solution, the results of which will need to be repeated after around a year in order to maintain them.

Frequently asked questions

Is rhinoplasty painful?2024-08-08T10:00:50+02:00

The operation is performed under general anesthesia so that you will not feel any pain during the procedure. Mild to moderate pain may occur after the operation, but this can be easily controlled with painkillers.

How long does recovery take after rhinoplasty?2024-08-08T10:01:10+02:00

Complete healing after rhinoplasty can take several weeks to months. Swelling and bruising may occur in the first few weeks after the operation. However, most patients can resume their normal activities after about two weeks.

Are there any risks or side effects?2024-08-08T10:01:28+02:00

As with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with rhinoplasty, including bleeding, infection and reactions to anesthesia. In addition, there may be temporary or permanent changes to the sense of smell or taste. Dissatisfaction with the aesthetic result is also possible. Before the operation, we will explain all the risks to you in detail and answer any questions you may have.

What happens if I am not satisfied with the result?2024-08-08T10:01:45+02:00

In some cases, patients are not satisfied with the results of their first rhinoplasty. In such cases, a secondary or "revision" rhinoplasty may be considered. It is important to understand that any additional surgery also carries additional risks and that the final outcome depends on many factors, including your body's ability to heal.
