Q. My son is 11 and has large nostrils and he is teased about it everyday at school. Is he able to get to smaller and roughly how much would it costs,
A. Thank you for your enquiry. I am amazed at the behaviour in our schools and I’m sorry to hear that your son is suffering because of it. It is rather unfair to operate on him at this stage, when his nose is still undergoing considerable development, which may be influenced by the surgery. Surgery of the nose in young children is documented and possible, but typically takes place in the context of cleft lip and palate congenital problems. In the first instance, I would strongly advocate discussing with the teachers at the school and the parents of the children that are bullying him. Perhaps if this approach fails, there may be scope for surgical adjustment of the size of the nostrils. I think in this situation there may be a role for carrying out the surgery through the NHS channels, and I suspect that your GP would support this.

Q. Can it possible to make bend nose straight,
A. Thank you for your enquiry. It is indeed possible to correct a deviation of the nose whether it is related to an injury of the nasal support structures, or a developmental problem. In particular in the context of a very significant deviation my preference would be to use the open tip approach for this type of correction.

Q. Am contemplating rhinoplasty surgery for a crooked nose, can you please let me know what the procedure involves and what are the risks involved. Also is there alot of pain also.,
A. Thank you for your enquiry. You would need to have a detailed consultation with a plastic surgeon on taking rhinoplasty to be able to get more information from you as far as what you mean by a croaked nose. Most likely you may have a deviation of the nasal septum or the central gristle of the nose and there could be an associated deviation of the bony septum. Depending on which of the structures is involved you may need adreseptoplasty or reseptorhinoplasty. Both procedure’s are different in so far as septorhinoplasty would involved correction of both the septum into bracket gristle as well as the bony framework while a septoplasty would involved tackling only the septum on the gristle of the nose. The commonly involved risk would be bruising, hematoma, bleeding, inadequate correction of the problem and in case of a cartilagenous deviation recurrence of the deviation is a definite posibility. It is a painful procedure although the pain is more of an issue in the first 2 days and does settle down quite quickly.

Q. I have been wanting a nose reshaping for a long time i will be 48 years next year . i would like to change my hair style and also be able to wear hats always find my nose shape a problem in wanting to do this . i think ive got a wide nose. I look after my self keeping fit and a good diet .How do i find the right consultant .,
A. Thank you for your question. If you start looking into having the rhinoplasty operation, it is a good idea to have a look on the Internet for orientation regarding results, as surgeons frequently have a “style” of their own which may suit your preferences. In addition, expect them to have the right qualifications and training either through the channels of plastic surgery or ENT, but most importantly meet several surgeons so you can get a clearer idea of their approach and how it corresponds to your designs for change. I tend to favour using computer imaging and procedure planning during the consultation, but every surgeon will have their own approach. Finally, you can also ask your surgeon if they can put you in touch with previous patients that had surgery with him.

Q. I am thinking of having a nose reduction, can u tell me how your consultation procedure goes and how long till the surgery can be completed?,
A. Thank you for your question. The first consultation for rhinoplasty takes on average 45 min and an second consultation is often advisable a few weeks later. Typically, between the time that you decide to have the surgery and the that time that we can fit you in for the operation varies between three and six weeks.

Q. I am 16 years of age and am wondering about reducing the size of my nose, should i wait till i am older and my features to fully develop before i take further action?,
A. I will suggest that you wait for another 2 years till you are 18 years of age before you consider a rhinoplasty. It is best taht you wait till your facial growth is complete and your features fully developed before undertaking any procedure that may require having to undertake fracture of the nasal bones and alteration of the cartilage of the nose.

Q. I have a hump and depressed tip on a narrow nose i wonder if non surgical nose job is the right thing for me and what the costs are,
A. Thank yu fo r your question. Because of the more limited scope of non-surgical reshaping of the nose, it does depend on what your target is. It is possible to evaluate in the consultation the degree of change that you seek using computer simulation and planning. Based on this, it is more reasonable to decide whether a nonsurgical approach would give you a result that you are happy with. It will also allow planning for the material to use for the augmentation and associated costs.

Q. I am a afro/caribean with a flat nose. however i want to see if im eligeable for a non surgical nose job before a surgical job as i would like to see if i am happy with a change and as i only want to make the top of my nose look straighter and for the tip to be lifted. Is there anyway of determining this by pictures or anything else recommened. I live in birmingham so as close by as possible!,
A. Thank you for your enquiry. I would imagine that a nonsurgical reshaping of the bridge of the nose if it is a matter of making it stand out more, would be feasible. I would however highlight the fact that in my hands, this would mean a temporary filler to avoid problems related to permanent fillers. With regard to the tip of the nose, I doubt that a nonsurgical approach will give you satisfaction. It is possible to do a simulation on computer using either 2-D or 3-D imaging to give you an indication of what the changes could be.
