A nose job—or rhinoplasty surgery—is a procedure where the nose is reshaped and often made smaller. Occasionally, the nose bone is broken and reset, this technique is called an osteotomy. It is not needed for all rhinoplasty surgeries. More commonly, a patient may also have a deviated septum corrected via a septoplasty. With all of this in mind, how many years does a nose job last?Rhinoplasty surgery is usually permanent. The procedure primarily shapes cartilage and bone and these structures are less susceptible to aging. After several decades, patients may see slight changes in the look of their nose, but it is often minimal. This could include wrinkling or slight droopiness. By this point, the nose is not a major concern for patients since other areas show more dramatic aging.Nose job surgeries are one of the few surgeries that are considered permanent. Revisions do occur, but are usually for touch-ups. Patients may also choose to undergo additional nose surgeries of their own accord later on in life.To learn more and schedule a consultation, call us at 941-923-1736.
