What Is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, often called a “nose job”, is a surgical procedure that reshapes or restructures the nose. It can address a range of concerns, from cosmetic refinements to functional improvements:

Smoothing bumps or humps along the nasal bridge
Reshaping a bulbous or drooping tip
Narrowing wide nostrils
Straightening a crooked nose caused by injury or genetics
Correcting structural issues, such as a deviated septum, that affect breathing

At Athēnix Pasadena, every rhinoplasty is carefully tailored to the patient’s anatomy and goals, ensuring results that feel natural and balanced.

How Rhinoplasty Is Performed

Rhinoplasty is performed in our AAAHC-accredited Pasadena surgical facility under general anesthesia or sedation. Depending on your case, one of two techniques may be used:

Open Rhinoplasty: A small incision at the base of the nose allows greater precision and visibility during reshaping. Any scarring is minimal and well-concealed.
Closed Rhinoplasty: All incisions are made inside the nostrils, leaving no visible scars and offering faster recovery when appropriate.

Using these approaches, our surgeons carefully reshape cartilage, bone, and soft tissue to achieve lasting improvements in both appearance and function.

Recovery and Results

Following rhinoplasty, patients can expect swelling, bruising, and nasal congestion during the first week. A splint may be applied for support and is usually removed after one week.

Return to light activities: 7–10 days
Bruising fades: 2–3 weeks
Final results visible: Several months as swelling fully resolves

Over time, your nose refines into its new shape, creating a look that feels natural, proportional, and aligned with your other features. Patients frequently report not only enhanced aesthetics but also easier breathing and improved confidence.
