Nose correction Belgium

Sometimes the nose is (too) prominent on the face. If you find your nose too big, a rhinoplasty offers a solution. We can reduce the size of a thick nose. Does the opposite apply to you, do you have a thin nose? Then we can also enlarge it through a nose enlargement.

When the nose is sized to your liking, but when the nose is crooked, we solve this with a crooked nose correction. First, the plastic surgeon will identify the cause of the crookedness, such as a crooked nasal septum (septum deviation), bone or cartilage. Based on the analysis, the surgeon will develop a plan of action to correct the nasal obliquity.

If you have large nostrils, it can seem as if your whole nose is large. This is because it makes the nose appear to cover a larger part of the face. A nostril correction (rhinoplasty wide nose) or reduction of the nostrils is then a good procedure for you.

Would you like a rocker nose correction or do you think the nose tip is too big or too thick? We offer different rhinoplasty (nose tip correction) procedures for every nose shape. When correcting a rocker nose, the plastic surgeon will remove or adjust excess tissue or cartilage in your nose to make the tip point less upwards. Sometimes it may be necessary to strengthen or reposition the cartilage for a natural nose tip profile.

Does your nose have a bump or lump on the nasal bridge or bridge of the nose? Or do you have an oversized or crooked hawk nose? This does not always give you the most beautiful side view. Fortunately, this can be solved with a rhinoplasty. With this, we ensure a nose that continues in a straight line. The surgeon will remove or refine hump on the bridge of the nose by removing or adjusting part of the nasal bone and nasal cartilage. At the same time, your nose can be straightened if it is crooked.

Wellness Kliniek has an international clientele and receives people from different origins. The request for an 'ethnic rhinoplasty', 'western rhinoplasty or 'Asian rhinoplasty' regularly comes along.

The aim of a rhinoplasty is not to create a nose typical of Western standards, but to enhance the natural beauty of your specific facial features. Ideal candidates for an ethnic rhinoplasty are men and women who want to improve their nose shape while maintaining their cultural or ethnic identity.

At Wellness Kliniek, we like to emphasise that everyone is beautiful. It is not our aim to think in boxes. However, to paint a picture from an informative point of view, below we tell you about the reasons our patients themselves give for choosing an 'ethnic rhinoplasty'.

• Arab, too large nose: An Arab rhinoplasty correction of the nose (also called hawk nose) requested by people of Arab or North African descent often focuses on refining or straightening the nasal bridge (bridge of the nose), adjusting the nose tip, and proportionally adjusting wide nostrils.
• Asian, overly flat nose: Asian rhinoplasty usually focuses on raising the nasal bridge (bridge of the nose), refining the nasal tip, and reducing or subtly narrowing the nostrils or nostrils.
• African, too wide nose: African rhinoplasty focuses on narrowing the nasal bridge to create a slimmer nose, refining the nasal tip, and adjusting the nostrils or nostrils. Tissue at the base of the nostrils is often removed to reduce the width of the nose, while other changes are very subtle to ensure harmony in the rest of the face.
• Jewish oversized nose: This rhinoplasty is also called Jewish rhinoplasty, due to specific anatomical features. Reducing a large Jewish nose often focuses on lowering and refining a prominent nasal bridge. Specific attention is paid to the nasal tip (tip or end of the nose), especially if it is perceived as too large or too prominent.
• Turkish oversized nose: A rhinoplasty for people from Turkey and the Balkans usually focuses on reducing or lowering an overly prominent nasal bridge, often with a hump, and refining the nose tip.
• Europe and Russia: A Western rhinoplasty or Caucasian rhinoplasty is rhinoplasty for people from Europe and Russia, and can vary in approach, but often focuses on adjusting the nasal bridge, refining the nasal tip and correcting asymmetries and the septum. A Western rhinoplasty often aims for a straight or slightly curved nasal bridge that is considered aesthetically pleasing within Western aesthetics.

In a total nose reconstruction or total rhinoplasty, the plastic surgeon will adjust several facets of your nose. The decision for a full nose job (rhinoplasty) can be an aesthetic or functional consideration.

• Aesthetic reasons: Men and women who feel their nose is too big, too small, asymmetrical or disproportionate compared to the rest of their face may opt for a full nose correction or total rhinoplasty of the nose profile.
• Functional reasons: Difficulty breathing through the nose due to a crooked nasal septum (septum deviation) can cause breathing problems. Obstructions in the nose may be the reason for sleep problems, snoring or sleep apnoea.

Here, of course, we look at what is necessary and desirable. Have you been hesitating for a long time about a correction to the nose? Then ask for a consultation. You can always decide afterwards whether to actually have the rhinoplasty carried out.

Have you had a rhinoplasty done elsewhere and your rhinoplasty failed? We are happy to see if we can improve the result with a secondary rhinoplasty or revision rhinoplasty. Correcting a failed rhinoplasty requires special expertise and experience from the surgeon, as a reoperation is more complex than a primary (first) rhinoplasty.

When considering a revision rhinoplasty (correct failed rhinoplasty), it is important to ask the surgeon about his/her experience and success rates with such surgeries. The doctor will discuss the possible risks and complications of the procedure with you and give honest advice on the possible outcome.
