Rhinoplasty Surgery

Rhinoplasty at Sama Hospital, South Delhi reshapes the nose to improve its appearance and, where needed, breathing — creating a natural, balanced result in harmony with your face, performed by experienced plastic surgeons in a NABH-accredited hospital.

Rhinoplasty, or nose surgery, reshapes the nose to change its size, shape or proportions, and can also correct breathing problems. One of the most requested facial procedures, it aims for a natural result that suits your features rather than an obviously altered look.

You may benefit if you are unhappy with the size or shape of your nose — a bump on the bridge, a wide or bulbous tip, or a crooked appearance — or if you have breathing difficulty from a deviated septum. Ideal candidates have completed facial growth, are in good health, and have realistic expectations.

• Cosmetic rhinoplasty reshapes the nose to improve appearance.
• Functional (septorhinoplasty) also corrects internal structures, such as a deviated septum, to improve breathing.

The two are often combined in a single procedure.

Rhinoplasty is performed under general anaesthesia and takes about one and a half to three hours. Depending on the changes needed, the surgeon uses a closed approach (incisions hidden inside the nose) or an open approach, reshaping the cartilage and bone for a refined, natural result. Our modern theatres and monitored anaesthesia ensure a safe procedure.

A splint supports the nose for about a week. Bruising and swelling around the eyes settle over one to two weeks, and the refined shape emerges gradually over several months as residual swelling resolves. The result is long-lasting.

Yes. Our surgeons aim for a balanced result that suits your face rather than an obviously “done” appearance.

With the closed approach, incisions are inside the nose. With the open approach, there is a tiny, well-hidden scar on the columella that fades over time.

Yes. Functional rhinoplasty (septorhinoplasty) corrects internal structures such as a deviated septum to improve breathing.

A splint is worn for about a week, with social downtime of one to two weeks. The final refinement appears over several months.

Usually once facial growth is complete, in the mid-to-late teens, and at any age in adulthood.

Cost depends on whether the surgery is cosmetic, functional or both, and its complexity. Sama Hospital offers transparent pricing and a personalised cost estimate at consultation.
