Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a "nose job", is a surgical procedure that is used to reshape the nose. The procedure can be performed for both cosmetic and medical reasons, such as to improve the appearance of the nose, correct structural abnormalities that affect breathing, or repair nasal trauma.

During the procedure, the surgeon will make incisions inside the nose or on the outside of the nose, and then reshape the bone, cartilage, and tissue to achieve the desired result. Depending on the extent of the procedure, the surgeon may use local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia.

Rhinoplasty can be used to correct a variety of cosmetic concerns, including a crooked nose, a hump on the bridge of the nose, a wide or bulbous tip, or nostrils that are too large. After the procedure, the nose may be taped or splinted to support the new shape while it heals. Recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the procedure, but most patients can return to work and normal activities within one to two weeks.
