Who can have rhinoplasty? People who feel that their nose is too long in relation to the face, who have a hump on the nasal dorsum in profile view, who have a very wide nose when viewed from the front, who have a drooping or flat nasal tip , that have a very wide or very thin and elongated tip, that have very large and wide nostrils, that have a deviated nose or that has a very low back and is too small for the face. Rhinoplasty can also be performed by those people who have had previous trauma or surgeries that have altered their nasal aesthetics.

What does the consultation consist of? It is very important that the patient has very defined the specific points that they dislike about their nose, as this will allow Doctor Andrés Mejía to understand their expectations. A history of rhinitis, nasal obstruction or snoring will be taken into account. It will also evaluate aspects such as skin type, whether there are scars or nasal deviations; the relationship of the nose with the other facial structures, the downward movement of the tip when laughing, if there is nasal obstruction due to deviation of the septum and enlarged turbinates.
