Rhinoplasty, or surgery to reshape the nose, is one of the most common of all plastic surgery procedures. Rhinoplasty can reduce or increase the size of your nose, change the shape of the tip or the bridge, narrow the span of the nostrils, or change the angle between your nose and your upper lip, this is called Cosmetic Rhinoplasty. It may also correct a birth defect or injury, or help relieve some breathing problems, this is functional Rhinoplasty.
