Closed Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a cosmetic and functional surgical procedure that reshapes or reconstructs the nose. It can be performed to enhance facial harmony, correct structural deformities, improve breathing issues, or restore nasal structure after injury. At our hospital, we specialize in the closed rhinoplasty technique, where all incisions are made inside the nostrils. This approach leaves no visible scars and ensures a faster, more comfortable recovery.
Common Corrections Performed
Hump correction
Removing bumps or irregularities on the nasal bridge.
Deviated nose correction
Straightening a crooked nose for aesthetic and breathing improvement.
Wide nose reduction
Narrowing the nasal base for better facial symmetry.
Tip correction
Refining the nasal tip to improve its shape or projection.
Droopy nose correction
Lifting and supporting a sagging nasal tip.
Hospital Stay and Recovery
The post-surgical recovery process is usually smooth:
- Hospital stay: 2–3 days for monitoring and basic recovery.
- Recovery period: 1–2 weeks, depending on the individual.
- A nasal splint is worn for about a week to support healing.
- Nasal packing may be used in some cases to prevent bleeding.
Safety and Post-Op Care
Rhinoplasty is considered a safe procedure with minimal complications when performed by experienced surgeons:
- Risks mainly involve general anesthesia-related side effects.
- Avoid intense workouts or heavy physical activity during recovery.
- Regular daily activities can be resumed as long as they don't involve excessive body movement.

Rhinoplasty can be performed for cosmetic, functional, or reconstructive reasons — and most procedures usually include a bit of both.
Whether you're coming in to improve the appearance of your nose or to correct breathing issues, Dr. Ajai always ensures that the functional (breathing) aspect is carefully addressed in every case.
For patients undergoing functional or reconstructive rhinoplasty, Dr. Ajai will take time to review all the details and develop a treatment plan tailored to each patient’s specific needs.
Closed rhinoplasty is a technique where all the incisions are made inside the nose, so there are no visible scars. In some rare cases, an open rhinoplasty may be needed, which involves a small incision at the base of the nose (the area between the nostrils called the columella). This small cut usually heals well and becomes barely noticeable over time.
Dr. Ajai performs most rhinoplasty surgeries using the closed approach, keeping incisions hidden inside the nose. However, if a specific case requires it, he may use the open method to achieve the best possible results. Dr. Ajai is highly skilled in both open and closed rhinoplasty techniques and will choose the one that suits each patient best during the consultation.
In most cases, rhinoplasty can lead to a significant improvement in breathing.
Although rhinoplasty is often performed for cosmetic reasons, Dr. Ajai also focuses on the functional aspects of the nose.
During the procedure, he carefully examines each part of the nasal airway and addresses any issues that may affect airflow. This ensures that the nose not only looks better but also functions more effectively after surgery.
