Rhinoplasty: A Personalized Approach to Nose Reshaping

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is one of the most refined procedures in plastic surgery. Whether you’re seeking subtle refinement or more dramatic structural changes, this surgery requires a deep understanding of both aesthetics and function. Dr. Chad Wu, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Richmond Hill and Toronto Downtown, specializes in customized rhinoplasty for patients looking to enhance their facial harmony while preserving their individuality.

What Can Rhinoplasty Address?

Rhinoplasty can correct a range of concerns, including:

• A dorsal hump or bump on the bridge of the nose
• A drooping or upturned nasal tip
• Wide or flared nostrils
• Asymmetry from prior trauma or genetics
• Breathing issues related to internal nasal structure

As a highly skilled plastic surgeon in Richmond Hill and Toronto Downtown, Dr. Wu also performs revision rhinoplasty for patients who are unsatisfied with results from previous surgeries.

Open vs. Closed Technique

Rhinoplasty can be performed using either an open or closed technique. The open approach involves a small incision across the columella (the tissue between the nostrils), allowing full access for detailed reshaping. The closed technique keeps incisions hidden inside the nose and may be suitable for more minor adjustments.

Dr. Wu carefully evaluates your goals, facial proportions, and nasal anatomy to determine the best surgical plan. Every nose is different – and so is every approach.

Recovery and Results

Most patients return to work or school within 7–10 days. Swelling is expected but gradually subsides over a few weeks, with final results visible in 6–12 months as tissues settle.

As a plastic surgeon in Richmond Hill and Toronto Downtown known for his meticulous technique and natural results, Dr. Wu provides detailed aftercare instructions and regular follow-ups to ensure optimal healing.

Rhinoplasty is as much about artistry as it is about anatomy. Dr. Wu combines surgical precision with a keen aesthetic eye, delivering results that complement your features and enhance confidence – without making you look like someone else.
