There are many nose types in people. One of the most common of these nose types is the long nose. A nose that is larger than normal often negatively affects the appearance of the face. One of the most frequently seen nose types in Turkey is the long and big nose structure. In this context, as TAS Aesthetic Surgery Center, we wanted to prepare an informative blog post for those who have a long nose structure and those who ask "how can a long nose be made smaller?". We hope it will be a useful article for those who want information about big nose rhinoplasty surgery and big nose rhinoplasty prices, and we wish you a pleasant read.

Is Big Nose Rhinoplasty Difficult?

The face is a whole, and since the nose is located at the center of the face, it is the organ that affects the facial appearance the most. For this reason, a nose that is longer than normal can negatively affect a person's facial appearance. Although in rare cases a longer-than-normal nose does not bother the person aesthetically, in most cases it is among the person's complaints about their face. Some people with a big nose type are bothered by their profile view, some by the frontal view, and some by the view from every angle. The big nose type is among the most common nose types in Turkey, among both men and women. At the same time, long nose rhinoplasty surgery is among the most difficult types of operations. However, it is not impossible for individuals with this kind of nose structure to achieve an excellent nose appearance with big nose reduction surgery. What matters here is choosing the right rhinoplasty surgeon for you. In conclusion, the answer to the question "can a big nose be reduced?" is "yes". Noses with a humped structure can also be included in this.

How Is Long Nose Rhinoplasty Done?

For long nose reduction surgery, a preliminary consultation is first held with the plastic surgeon. As a result of this consultation, a roadmap for long nose surgery is drawn up. While drawing up this roadmap, each person's own face and nose type is taken as the basis. Indeed, the appearance of the nose cannot be considered independently of the other features of the face. For this reason, when planning big nose rhinoplasty surgery, features such as the cheekbones, the chin structure and the forehead structure are also taken into account, and the aim is to evaluate the face as a whole and create good proportion among the facial features. Along with all this, while drawing up the roadmap, it is also taken into account that the nose cannot be reduced as much as one wishes. Indeed, factors such as the thickness of the nasal skin and the functional condition of the nasal airways are among the limiting reasons. Making the nose much smaller than it should be can damage functions such as breathing through the nose. For this reason, when it comes to big nose reduction, creating a nose that is proportionate and in keeping with the other features of the face is more important than obtaining a tiny nose. While drawing up the right roadmap for big nose surgery, the necessary examinations and tests are performed on the patient. It is evaluated whether the patient has any conditions that pose a risk for rhinoplasty.

When the day of the surgery for long nose reduction arrives, the length of the cartilages that cause the nose to be long is shortened. In some cases, the cartilages at the tip of the nose also need to be reduced. In addition, conditions such as a receding chin can make the nose look bigger than it is. Patients are usually not aware of this. The plastic surgeon notices the situation during the preliminary examination and informs the patient. If the patient agrees, procedures such as fat injection or placing an implant in the chin are also performed so that the chin appears more forward and is in proportion with the nose, and the patient achieves the appearance they have dreamed of. Whatever aesthetic intervention is performed as a result of the evaluations, the changes in the patient's nose begin to settle over time, depending also on the type of aesthetic procedure performed. This period takes about 1 year on average.
