Nose job

Rhinoplasty aims to redefine the nose to restore balance and optimize facial proportions. Frequently motivated by psychological discomfort, aesthetic nose surgery is preferred for a natural look. Medical rhinoplasty, less invasive, represents a temporary alternative, allowing patients to avoid surgery or to become accustomed to the future result.

The benefits of rhinoplasty

  • Aesthetic enhancement: Redefines shape and proportions for a harmonious face
  • Respiratory correction: Treats deviated nasal septa to improve breathing
  • Lasting results: Definitive changes thanks to surgery
  • Non-invasive alternative: Hyaluronic acid injections for a temporary result
  • Rapid recovery: Modern techniques such as ultrasound for less trauma
  • Customized plan: 3D visualization to adapt the nose to each face
  • Comprehensive support: Post-operative follow-up for optimum safety

Frequently asked questions

Why get a nose job?

In most cases, the motivation for a nose job is aesthetic. Indeed, the nose is the central element of the face, the first to be noticed, and therefore a potentially major source of complexes. Many people find that their noses are too pronounced or too long, which is a real nuisance in everyday life.

But aesthetics isn’t the only reason to reshape the nose. For example, a natural deviation of the nasal septum can lead to potentially disabling chronic breathing difficulties. In this case, nose surgery can resolve the problem once and for all, giving the patient normal breathing capacity.

Similarly, rhinoplasty can be used as reconstructive surgery after an accident.

What can be done?

We strongly recommend that you choose the shape of your nose to match the shape of your face, as the harmony between the two is crucial to the final result. A nose can appear too thin on one face and too thick on another, which is why the doctor will suggest a morphing procedure. This is a 3D rendering of your face that allows you to visualize what your nose might look like. This technique avoids unpleasant surprises in the final result.

Possible areas of intervention :

  • back of the nose: to correct the “hump” of the nose
  • wings and nostrils: to change their width
  • nose tip: to shape and reshape the nose
  • nose length or deviated nasal septum: to modify the overall appearance of the nose, with a functional interest in improving respiratory capacity
What is the minimum age for a nose job?

While there is no legal minimum age for rhinoplasty, the growth of bone and cartilage in the face is completed around the age of eighteen. It is therefore advisable to wait until at least that age before deciding to have a nose job.

At Claris Clinic, only patients over the age of 18 are eligible for surgery.

How do you choose a nose job?

The most common nose reshaping procedure is rhinoplasty, which can be medical, surgical or ultrasonic. Taking the time to choose between these techniques is of course essential, as is being accompanied by a doctor at this initial stage.

Here are a few important criteria to consider.

  • Surgical rhinoplasty
    This is the most common procedure for nose reshaping. It involves reshaping the bones, cartilage and tissues that make up the nose to change its shape. This procedure may leave an almost invisible scar on the tip of the nose, but is generally performed directly inside the nostrils to leave no external traces. The main benefit of surgery is a definitive result, but it requires general anesthesia and a longer recovery period.
  • Medical rhinoplasty
    This procedure involves injectinghyaluronic acid into targeted areas to harmonize the volume of the nose. It may be more effective than surgery in certain specific situations, on the doctor’s recommendation. Hyaluronic acid injections have a temporary effect, so they can be used to anticipate a future definitive rhinoplasty. By reproducing the results, the injections enable the patient to become accustomed to the new shape of his or her nose, thereby reinforcing the decision.
  • Ultrasound rhinoplasty
    This ultra-modern surgical method delivers long-lasting results with less postoperative stress. It is indicated in certain situations as an alternative to conventional rhinoplasty.
How is care provided?

At the Claris Clinic, treatment for a nose job always begins with an initial consultation with a specialist doctor. This meeting allows us to better define the patient’s needs and expectations, as well as the possible solutions based on his or her medical history. The doctor is there to support you in your choice of protocol, always proposing the solutions best suited to your profile, with your safety as our top priority.

You can, of course, take this opportunity to ask any questions you may have, and share any fears you may have. Support is essential, from your first meeting with your doctor to your last, and it’s vital for us that you establish a bond of trust with him or her.

The entire protocol will be established in constant communication with your doctor, with each step being personalized and explained to you in detail. Of course, our teams are available to listen to you throughout the entire process, right up to the end of your post-procedure follow-up, which lasts approximately one year after the procedure (in the case of surgery). Your doctor may ask you to undergo further tests before confirming your procedure, especially in the case of surgery, to ensure that your state of health guarantees maximum safety during rhinoplasty.

It’s also important to bear in mind that only a qualified professional can give you reliable information about the characteristics of a procedure, whether surgical or non-surgical. Only your doctor, who is familiar with your medical file, can inform you of the expected results, and the risks associated with a procedure.
