Male Rhinoplasty
New York City
Enhancing Your Masculine Look
Rhinoplasty allows you to address functional and cosmetic concerns related to your nose, such as asymmetry issues, breathing problems, flared nostrils, narrow nose bridge, and more. Addressing cosmetic concerns related to the nose with male rhinoplasty helps you maintain overall facial symmetry for a more balanced masculine aesthetic.
What to Expect
Male rhinoplasty often involves:
- smoothing the Dorsal hump on the nose bridge
- modifying an overly large or drooping nasal tip
- reshaping nostrils
- reducing the size of overly large nostrils
The primary goal of a male rhinoplasty is to shape and alter your nose to create a more attractive look without betraying obvious signs of cosmetic work. However, each individual is unique, and your surgeon must curate a treatment plan according to your goals.

Why Would One Undergo Male Rhinoplasty?
You may need to undergo male rhinoplasty in NYC if you’re experiencing functional or cosmetic problems related to your nose. Male patients seeking cosmetic rhinoplasty generally seek a nose that’s better aligned with their other facial features. This may involve reducing the size of the nose, correcting structural issues, straightening a crooked nose, narrowing the nose bridge, widening the nose, or more.
Male patients seeking functional rhinoplasty generally experience breathing problems because of the internal or external structures of their nose. They may have deviated septums, nasal polyps, enlarged turbinates, or collapsed nasal valves that obstruct the nasal passage, leading to breathing problems. The plastic surgeon can fix the root cause of the problem and facilitate optimal airflow.
Reasons to Undergo Rhinoplasty
You may undergo a male rhinoplasty for these reasons:
- Breathing problems
- Asymmetry issues
- Small or large nose
- Wide or narrow nostrils
- Dorsal hump problems
- Nasal tip problems
- Other functional or cosmetic concerns
Male Rhinoplasty Surgical Techniques
Open Rhinoplasty
Open rhinoplasty is meant for patients needing extensive corrections on the external and internal structures of the nose, such as narrowing a nose bridge.
During this rhinoplasty technique, the surgeon makes a small incision in the columella, i.e., the tissue between the nostrils. The surgeon pulls back the flap of the nose, thus revealing the underlying cartilage, soft tissues, and bone tissues. This allows the surgeon to modify the internal structures of the nose according to your specific goals. This technique involves an extended recovery period, but the incision mark gradually becomes imperceptible.
Closed Rhinoplasty
Closed rhinoplasty is a surgical technique wherein the incisions are made within the nostrils, so there is no visible scarring on the outside.
This technique allows the surgeon to make small modifications, but it’s not suitable for larger concerns related to the nasal bridge or tip. If you’re deemed a viable candidate for this procedure, you can be guaranteed a quick recovery period. Your plastic surgeon will carefully examine your nose, discuss your goals, and perform imaging tests to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for closed rhinoplasty.

Male Rhinoplasty FAQs
What is the cost of male rhinoplasty?
The cost of male rhinoplasty can vary significantly depending on factors like the extent of the procedure, whether you need open or closed rhinoplasty, whether there’s any need for grafting and more. Our facial plastic surgeons will curate a personalized surgical plan based on your needs and offer a personalized quote.
How long is the recovery time?
Recovery time after male rhinoplasty typically spans 1 to 2 weeks. During the initial days, you may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort. Most individuals can resume light activities within a week, but strenuous exercises and intense physical activity should be avoided for 4 to 6 weeks. Full results may take several months to become apparent.
How do you choose the right nose shape for a male nose job?
Selecting the ideal nose shape in male rhinoplasty is a collaborative process between the patient and a skilled facial plastic surgeon. It involves considering factors like facial symmetry, ethnicity, and personal preferences. A thorough consultation is crucial, where the surgeon evaluates your unique facial features and discusses the desired outcome.
How does male rhinoplasty differ from female rhinoplasty?
Male rhinoplasty typically aims for a more masculine appearance by preserving or enhancing prominent features like a stronger bridge or broader tip. Meanwhile, female rhinoplasty often aims for softer, more refined contours. Our surgeons tailor their techniques to align with these gender-specific ideals and your facial features and goals.
What are the benefits of a male rhinoplasty?
Male rhinoplasty offers numerous benefits, including improved facial balance, enhanced self-confidence, and the correction of structural issues that may hinder breathing. By addressing these concerns and creating a more harmonious facial profile, this procedure can boost overall self-esteem and provide a renewed sense of satisfaction with your appearance.
