The Popularity of Rhinoplasty at Centre for Surgery: A Closer Look
While breast enlargement tends to grab the spotlight when it comes to cosmetic procedures, rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, is also a much-sought-after treatment at our Centre for Surgery clinic. We often consult with patients who are either considering this nose surgery for the first time or are exploring corrective options following previous procedures.
In terms of numbers, we complete around 150 rhinoplasty surgeries each year. To give you some context, that’s a pretty substantial volume, especially when compared to many other clinics. Just to be a member of the European Academy of Facial Plastic Surgery, a surgeon has to perform a minimum of 30 nasal surgeries each year. Given that our surgeons surpass this requirement by a significant margin, it highlights the extent of our experience and expertise in this specialised area.
So, if you’re contemplating rhinoplasty, you can be assured you’re in skilled hands at Centre for Surgery. We not only meet but exceed industry standards, offering an unparalleled level of care and proficiency.
Common Worries and Issues Addressed Through Rhinoplasty
When it comes to rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery, patients come to us with a variety of concerns they’d like to fix. These concerns can be broadly categorised into functional and cosmetic issues.
Functional Concerns
One of the most prevalent functional issues is breathing difficulties, often caused by a deviated septum. The septum is the structure made up of both bone and cartilage that divides your nose into two separate passages. When the septum is not aligned properly or is off-centre, it can obstruct the airflow, causing problems in breathing through one or both nostrils. Correcting a deviated septum is a common reason many opt for rhinoplasty.
Cosmetic Concerns
On the cosmetic front, the reasons for seeking rhinoplasty are quite varied. Some people wish to straighten a crooked nose, while others are interested in either reducing or increasing the overall size of their nose. There are also those who want to narrow the width of their nostrils or adjust the angle between their nose and upper lip. Changes to the shape of the nose’s bridge or tip are also frequent cosmetic modifications people desire.

Understanding What a Bulbous Nose Tip Is
A bulbous nose tip is a common concern among people seeking rhinoplasty. In simple terms, it refers to a nasal tip that’s round and wide, lacking a defined shape. People with a bulbous tip often feel that their nose appears too big, too round, or too wide. In some instances, the tip might also be upturned, drooping, or hooked, adding to the dissatisfaction.

If you’re picturing what this looks like, imagine a ball-like structure at the end of the nose instead of a more balanced, subtly triangular shape that blends well with the rest of the facial features.
So, what causes a bulbous tip? Well, the technical term is ‘poorly defined hypertrophic lower lateral cartilages’ (quite a mouthful, we know). Essentially, this means that the cartilage at the tip of the nose is not well-defined, either due to weak cartilage strength, a naturally round dome shape, or an excess of soft tissue covering the cartilage.
Whether your concerns are purely cosmetic or also functional, rhinoplasty can effectively address a bulbous nose tip. At Centre for Surgery, our surgeons have the necessary expertise to reshape and redefine your nose, offering both aesthetic appeal and improved functionality.
How to Address a Bulbous Nose Tip: A Customised Approach
Correcting a bulbous nose tip is not a one-size-fits-all process; it hinges on identifying the root causes behind the rounded shape. At Centre for Surgery, our first step is always a thorough examination to determine the exact structural elements contributing to the bulbous appearance. Based on these findings, we decide on the most effective surgical approach tailored to your specific needs.

Commonly, this involves reworking and refining the small cartilage edges at the tip of your nose. This delicate work helps to reshape the tip without affecting the overall structural integrity of the nose. In certain cases, advanced techniques like special suturing or cartilage grafting may also be needed, or we may combine various methods for optimal results.
Given the complexity and highly personalised nature of rhinoplasty, we strongly recommend booking a consultation at our Baker Street clinic. During this consultation, we can delve into the specifics of your case and discuss the most suitable surgical options for you.
As for the outcome, you can expect a nose tip that looks balanced and harmonious with your other facial features, contributing to a natural overall appearance. It’s worth noting that like all rhinoplasty procedures, there will be some surgical swelling. While most noticeable swelling usually subsides within a few weeks, some subtle swelling may linger for several months. This residual swelling tends to affect the tip more than other areas, but it’s typically not noticeable to anyone but you.
By the one-year mark, any remaining swelling should have fully resolved, revealing your final, refined nose shape.
