Our 360° Complete Care Plan is a patient plan that includes a bespoke approach beginning with a comprehensive consultation where we analyse your facial structure to ensure a result that is as individual as you are.
This expert operation can alter the shape, size and projection of the nose. Addressing concerns about the bridge of the nose, the nasal tip or the septum. The surgical approach is tailored to your individual concerns, facial proportions and aesthetic goals, a combination of techniques to achieve the best aesthetic outcome.

The operation usually requires general anaesthesia but we can also offer local anaesthesia. Depending on your needs, the surgical approach will vary. This might include:
The ideal procedure for a nose reconstruction surgery would be someone who wishes to make changes to the appearance of their nose due to its shape or size or is having breathing difficulties.
Improvements will be visible upon the removal of your cast. Over six months to a year, your nose will continue to change shape. During this time, swelling should reduce and you should start to see the final results towards the end of 1 year.
A Rhinoplasty is one of the most transformative procedures you can do to change your face. As it is the central facial feature, is it through Rhinoplasty that some of the best transformations are made.
Read this blog for more information on how a Rhinoplasty will change your facial aesthetic.
We’ve outlined all our Plastic Surgery milestones in this blog.
The ultrasonic Rhinoplasty is the name for a Closed Rhinoplasty that uses the medical instrument the Piezotome. This type of technique is called an ultrasonic, or Preservation Rhinoplasty, because the Piezo emits ultrasound to sculpt and alter the bone. This helps to preserve the nose’s structure and can accurately sculpt the bone without causing trauma to the surrounding skin.
The results of a rhinoplasty procedure last a lifetime; however, as you age, the cartilage and underlying bone structure can begin to weaken, which can cause the nasal tip to droop ever-so-slightly. Other changes could occur if you broke or damaged your nose in some way.
The speed of recovery varies from patient to patient. We may require you to wear a nasal splint for the first week following your operation.
Swelling and significant bruising around the eye and nose area may occur and will continue to improve over the course of 2-3 weeks. Discomfort may be felt during this time. Numbness felt at the tip of the nose is normal, and will resolve over a few weeks. Some patients can experience a stuffy sensation up the nostrils, and the nose may become runny with fluid or blood.
A closed incision will leave no visible remaining scars. This approach may be taken if the surgeon needs to remove cartilage or changes to the bone structure need to be made. When using this technique, Rhinoplasty incisions are dissolvable, discover more information here.
An open incision will leave a minimal scar that is virtually undetectable to the naked eye. This option is usually favourable if the surgeon needs to reconstruct the nasal tip.
The surgery time depends on the extent of the procedure. It can vary from one hour to two and a half hours.
As with all surgeries, there are risks. Some of the risks may include:
Unsatisfactory result
Anaesthesia risks
Infection
Poor wound healing or scarring
Difficulty breathing – stuffy sensation up the nose which can also be linked to your sinuses.
Numbness or pain
Perforated septum
Skin discolouration
Pollybeak deformity
If you’ve been considering making changes to your nose for two years or more, you may want to consider surgery; this may be for aesthetic reasons or maybe because you’re suffering from breathing difficulties. A nose job is a very popular surgery, and over 91% of Realself users say it’s worth it, with over 2000 procedures performed in the UK last year alone. Certain considerations may affect your decision such as whether you’ll be able to take up to two weeks off work, finances and of course, whether your nasal structure requires surgery.
Patience is key when it comes to results. You’ll see improvements from as soon as three weeks, with the final shape forming after around three months, but it can take up to three years for you to see the final outcome.
Secondly, the recovery process is quite tedious for some. Having a stuffy feeling up the nose or having a runny nose is common, but you must resist the urge to blow your nose (there are specific ways to manage this which your surgeon will give you more information on). We recommend trying to keep your head elevated when you sleep for the first couple of weeks following the operation by propping a few pillows underneath your head.
Lastly, it’s important to remember that having a rhinoplasty is not a guaranteed way to improve your confidence.
Preservation Rhinoplasty (Piezo Rhinoplasty)
An ultra-advanced version of the Rhinoplasty that harnesses the power of a Piezo. A Piezo is an instrument that emits ultrasonic wavelengths directly to the bone to trim and sculpt – without disrupting the nerve endings and causing dramatic trauma. Also known as an ‘ultrasonic Piezo rhinoplasty‘ it works within the nose and offers more accuracy, finesse and faster recovery.
Reduction Rhinoplasty
This surgery aims to reduce the overall size and volume of the nose. Reducing the size of the nose can dramatically improve the proportions and visual harmony of the face. The approach to surgery usually involves reducing the size of the nostrils, and we’ll also resolve irregularities and bumps on the bridge of the nose if necessary.
Augmentation Rhinoplasty
Augmentation rhinoplasty, also known as nose correction surgery, involves altering the nose to improve its shape. This approach would be suitable for patients who feel that their nose lacks definition, length, or has another undesirable shape. It’s also suitable for those with congenital abnormalities. This surgery enhances and augments the nose by using autogenous tissues or a silicone implant. The surgeon may decide to perform bone grafting on the nose to recreate the tip.
Alar Reduction
Alar Reduction (also called an Alarplasty) focuses on the width of the base of the nose and nostrils. During this procedure, the surgeon would narrow the width of the nostril base.
Tip Refinement (Also known as Mini Rhinoplasty)
For aesthetic changes associated with the nasal tip, a tip refinement may be the procedure of preference. A tip refinement surgery works with the lower third of the nose, preserving the rest of the nasal structure. This procedure would be best for those with a large or bulbous nasal tip.
This is an increasingly popular treatment as cultural ideals of beauty have now shifted towards a narrower nose and slightly elevated tip. This is why we have specifically created a Nose Tip lift to target this increasingly demanded type of nose surgery.
Post-Trauma Rhinoplasty
Post-trauma rhinoplasty addresses previous trauma to the nose when its structure has been damaged. An earlier accident may have led to changes in shape or asymmetry. The surgeon will, therefore, rebuild the nose to restore its original appearance as much as possible.
Dr Yannis Alexandrides has extensive experience in reconstructive surgery and in craniofacial reconstructive surgery and has performed multiple corrective operations on patients with severe injuries and congenital abnormalities.
Septorhinoplasty
A septorhinoplasty reshapes your nose and your septum (the cartilage that divides the two nostrils inside the nose). It can alter the appearance of your nose and improve breathing difficulties. This type of surgery addresses both aesthetic and medical concerns.
This type of treatment can also help improve the look of narrow nostrils – known as nostril widening surgery – which can be a solution to both cosmetic and medical concerns. During a nostril widening surgery, Dr Yannis will widen the nasal value and reshape the nostrils into your more desired appearance. Plus, thanks to immense technological advancements, widening the nasal canal is much less intrusive than what it originally was. By using an ultrasonic tool called a Piezo, Dr Yannis will be able to widen the nasal value atraumatically.
Septoplasty
A septoplasty does not address cosmetic concerns, but instead, corrects a deviated septum and improves the nasal passages which can improve breathing and prevent snoring. It’s less invasive than other rhinoplasty approaches when performed on its own, but many patients opt to combine it with other techniques to improve the appearance nose.

I really think highly of the aesthetic judgement of the nurse in 111Harley street as I received non-surgical rhinoplasty there. It’s very natural, not exaggerated. And the service there is excellent! It’s friendly to foreign customer since Miss Bonnie is a brilliant and patient interpreter.
YihanHad the best non surgical rhinoplasty experience! Many thanks to Nicky , she definitely has the best skills and knowledge and is very professional. Was slightly scared but she always re assured me and made me feel so comfortable.Will definitely recommend to all. Thanks a million!
Yesim KilicI underwent a open Septorhinoplasty on the 9th of January. I turned 25 a few days before my op I couldn’t think of a better way to start a new decade and chapter in my life. This is something I really wanted done for ten years and I’m really happy I finally got round to getting it done. 3 weeks post op currently and I can’t wait to see how the remaining 12 months go.
