Rhinoplasty Surgery in Dubai

What is Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery/Nose Job)?
Rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, is a specialized plastic surgery procedure designed to reshape and enhance the nose. It serves both reconstructive and cosmetic purposes restoring nasal function and correcting deformities or irregularities in the septum (inside) and nasal framework (outside). Functional rhinoplasty improves breathing by addressing structural issues. A breakthrough technique, the Combined Auricular Graft, published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal, enhances outcomes by using cartilage grafts for better nasal support. While rhinoplasty achieves excellent results, some unsuccessful rhinoplasties may require revision surgery to correct complications or aesthetic concerns, ensuring both form and function are effectively restored.
Types of Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty comes in different types, each tailored for cosmetic, functional, or corrective needs.
Primary Rhinoplasty
Primary rhinoplasty is the first nose surgery performed to enhance nasal shape, symmetry, and function. Whether for cosmetic refinement or breathing correction, this procedure creates a harmonious, natural look while addressing structural concerns to improve aesthetics and airflow.
Secondary Rhinoplasty
Secondary rhinoplasty, also known as revision rhinoplasty, corrects issues from previous nose surgeries. Whether improving shape, symmetry, or breathing function, this procedure refines results, resolves complications, and enhances overall satisfaction with a more natural outcome.
How is Rhinoplasty Performed?
- Anaesthesia and Incision: The procedure begins under general anesthesia or IV sedation. Depending on the case, the surgeon makes either internal (closed) or external (open) incisions for access.
- Reshaping and Correction: Bone and cartilage are reshaped, reduced, or augmented to achieve the desired nasal structure. Cartilage grafts may be used, and a deviated septum is corrected if needed to improve breathing.
- Closure and Support: The incisions are closed with precision, and nasal tissues are redraped. Splints or dressings are applied to support the nose during initial healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Helping with answers to make you feel at ease
What should I do before getting rhinoplasty?
Follow your surgeon’s pre-surgery guidelines: avoid smoking, alcohol, and blood thinners, maintain hydration, and arrange post-surgery assistance. Discuss expectations, review medical history, and ensure good overall health for a smooth rhinoplasty experience and optimal healing.
What should I do after getting rhinoplasty?
Keep your head elevated, avoid strenuous activities, and follow your surgeon’s care plan. Use cold compresses for swelling, take prescribed medications, and attend follow-ups. Avoid touching or blowing your nose to ensure proper healing and long-lasting results.
What are the possible side effects of rhinoplasty?
Temporary swelling, bruising, and congestion are common. Rare complications include infection, asymmetry, scarring, or breathing difficulties. Choosing an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon and following post-op care instructions significantly reduces risks and ensures a smooth recovery with natural-looking results.
Is rhinoplasty painful?
The procedure is done under anesthesia, making it painless. Post-surgery, mild discomfort, swelling, and congestion occur but are manageable with prescribed pain relief. Most patients resume daily activities within a week with proper care and minimal discomfort.
How much does rhinoplasty cost in Dubai?
Pricing varies based on the complexity of the procedure and the expertise of the surgeon. A consultation provides a customized treatment plan, ensuring the highest standards of care and precision for naturally refined, long-lasting results.
How is rhinoplasty different from nose fillers?
Rhinoplasty is a permanent surgical procedure that reshapes the nose structurally and functionally. Nose fillers are temporary, non-surgical enhancements for minor contouring but cannot correct breathing problems or major deformities. Fillers last 6 to 18 months, while rhinoplasty provides lifelong results.
What is the difference between open and closed rhinoplasty?
Open rhinoplasty involves an external incision for greater visibility and is ideal for complex reshaping. Closed rhinoplasty uses incisions inside the nostrils, leaving no visible scars with a quicker recovery. The best method depends on individual needs and goals.
Can a nose be fixed without surgery?
Yes, nose fillers can temporarily smooth bumps or enhance shape, but they cannot fix structural issues, breathing problems, or significant deformities. For permanent reshaping or functional correction, rhinoplasty surgery is the only long-term solution.
How long does it take to recover from a nose job?
Initial swelling and bruising subside within two weeks, but full healing takes 6 to 12 months as the nose settles into its final shape. Proper post-care, including avoiding impact and following medical advice, ensures the best results.
How long does a nose job last?
Surgical rhinoplasty offers permanent results, with minor changes possible due to aging. Non-surgical nose fillers last 6 to 18 months and require regular maintenance for continued results. The choice depends on desired correction, longevity, and whether function or aesthetics is the priority.
Does insurance cover rhinoplasty in Dubai?
Insurance may cover functional rhinoplasty if it corrects breathing issues or deformities. Cosmetic rhinoplasty, performed for aesthetic reasons, is typically not covered. It’s best to consult your provider to confirm coverage for your specific procedure.

I've been coming to The Nova Clinic Al Wasl Branch for laser hair removal and really happy with the results I'm getting. Shoutout to Dr. Saima, she's so sweet, very detailed and professional when it comes to explaining the procedures and whats best for me, and a shoutout to her nurse Rachel too. The only thing is that sometimes it's quite difficult to change or book appointments if I want to book something soon, which makes me have to wait a long time. However overall, I would definitely recommend this clinic to others!Fatma Hassan

Over all a great experience and I would definitely recommend Jessica and the Nova Clinic.Lisa Hamilton

It was my first time at the Nova clinic and I was pleasantly impressed. A very beautiful, spacious and clean place with excellent service and professional specialists. I came for a procedure with cosmetologist Natalya and she selected a treatment for me based on my skin type and according to my recommendations, we did peeling and lifting of the lower part of the face, everything went as comfortable and pleasant as possible) After the procedure, my face was shining and looked very fresh, and after a few days I began to receive a million compliments that I began to look much better and that something had changed noticeably, this cannot please me either when in the morning I saw an even tone and a toned face. In general, I am very pleased and recommend Natalia as a specialist in caring for your face.Diana Gorbacheva

I did an enzyme facial last week at NOVA clinic, It was amazing,Christine was amazing and very gentle and the atmosphere of the room is very relaxing. The facial was kind of uncomfortable because it stings BUT after the results of the facial after 2 days i forgot about the unpleasant itches during the facial. Everyone told me im glowing which is why im going to do the facial again very soon! Plus it seemed like it reduced visible fine lines/wrinkles. I highly recommend this facial and clinic, as it's very clean and welcoming.Dunia hasbini

She creates really natural, beautiful brows. I highly recommend her!Kashan baba
