Rhinoplasty, more commonly referred to as a nose job, is one of the most common facial cosmetic surgery procedures performed on both men and women. Most common procedures only take a few hours and patients can reap what could be a lifetime’s worth of benefits. Here are some of the top reasons for undergoing rhinoplasty.


Improved breathing

Blockages in the airways of noses could trigger breathing difficulties. This could lead to bigger problems like lack of oxygen, sleep disorders like sleep apnea or excessive snoring, and general lack of sleep. These hinder the enjoyment of a full night’s rest and could be detrimental to physical well-being and productivity. Rhinoplasty can remove these blockages and clear up the air pathway.


Self-esteem

People can be dissatisfied with their appearance to a point that they want to undergo a procedure like rhinoplasty to improve their looks. This need to change their look may stem from self-esteem issues. After getting the procedure, many people gain a boost in self-confidence with their new look.

Recovering from accidents

Accidents can affect both perceptions of appearance and nasal functions. Trauma from accidents can cause scarring or create blockages. Rhinoplasty can help restore one’s appearance and nasal function.


Sinus problems

Excessive or recurring sinus problems like sinusitis and sinus infections can be caused by a deviated septum. A procedure called septoplasty can correct the septum, improve quality of life, and help them avoid further complications.
