All About Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery)

"There is no one ideal shape for a nose. With rhinoplasty it is imperative to customise the nose's shape to the rest of the patient's face. No two end results are alike."
- Dr. Darryl Hodgkinson

Nose surgery can include:

• refining the shape of a nose (be it the tip, bridge or nostrils),
• repairing a broken nose,
• augmenting a ‘ski slope’ or heavily damaged nose
• repairing the internal tissues to allow a nose to breathe better (a procedure called a septoplasty).

All these issues must be carefully considered by a surgeon prior to performing the rhinoplasty and/or septoplasty. The surgeon must in turn be able to communicate with the patient as to how they can achieve their expectations. No single procedure or set of procedures is correct for every patient.

Dr. Hodgkinson has been performing rhinoplasty surgery for over 25 years and has expertise in all of these procedures as well as the ability to communicate clearly with the patient about their desires in order to assess which procedure would best suit them
