Nose
The nose is central to the appearance of the face. Surgery to the nose can help improve its shape and give a more pleasing look. Breathing problems can also be improved with surgery. This surgery to the nose is called a rhinoplasty. Mr Uppal has considerable experience in performing rhinoplasty to improve the shape of the nose, for example a hump on the bridge or a wide tip.
The nose can often appear uneven after an injury such as a fall. A rhinoplasty will correct any bend in the shape. It can also open up the breathing on one side of the nose which is a common problem.
As the nose is such an important part of one's appearance, Mr Uppal's takes great care in discussing your exact wishes and needs.
Mr Uppal most commonly performs the surgery without leaving any scars on the nose. Most patients will need to wear a plaster on their nose for one week. The details of your surgery will be discussed with you at your consultation.
A rhinoplasty is performed while you are asleep under a general anaesthetic and you will usually need to stay in hospital for one night. You will also need to plan about a week off work to rest and recover.
All operations carry risks as well as benefits which Mr Uppal will discuss with you in detail.
