Rhinoplasty in Dubai

Functional, Cosmetic & Reconstructive Nose Surgery

By Dr. Muhammad Jabbr – Consultant ENT & Head and Neck Surgeon

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose to improve facial harmony, nasal function, or both. Many patients seeking rhinoplasty in Dubai present with combined cosmetic and functional concerns, such as nasal deformities, breathing difficulties, old fractures, or nostril asymmetry.

A successful rhinoplasty requires more than surface reshaping—it demands accurate diagnosis, deep understanding of nasal anatomy, and precise surgical planning. Dr. Muhammad Jabbr provides ENT-based rhinoplasty, focusing on natural results, stable structure, and long-term breathing improvement.

Expert Approach to Rhinoplasty in Dubai

Rhinoplasty is more than cosmetic reshaping—it often involves correcting underlying structural and functional nasal problems that affect breathing, sleep quality, and long-term nasal stability.

Many patients seeking rhinoplasty in Dubai present with one or more of the following:

  • Crooked or asymmetrical nose
  • Deviated nasal septum
  • Nasal hump (dorsal hump)
  • Nasal obstruction or breathing difficulty
  • Previous nasal injury or fracture
  • Unsatisfactory results from prior surgery

A successful rhinoplasty requires precise evaluation of both the external appearance and internal nasal anatomy. In complex cases, correcting the shape of the nose alone is not sufficient—functional correction such as Septoplasty or septorhinoplasty may be required to address airflow and structural support.

Dr. Muhammad Jabbr applies an ENT-based approach to rhinoplasty, focusing on:

  • Accurate diagnosis of nasal deformities
  • Restoration of nasal airflow and function
  • Facial balance and natural-looking outcomes
  • Long-term structural stability

Each rhinoplasty plan is fully individualized, based on nasal anatomy, breathing needs, and aesthetic goals.

Conditions Addressed by Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty can address a wide range of cosmetic and functional nasal concerns.

Crooked Nose

A crooked nose may result from trauma, genetics, or previous surgery and is often associated with internal septal deviation.

Deviated Septum

A deviated septum can cause chronic nasal blockage, mouth breathing, snoring, sinus infections, and headaches. In such cases, rhinoplasty may be combined with septoplasty to improve both appearance and breathing.

Nasal Hump (Dorsal Hump)

A raised area of bone or cartilage on the nasal bridge can disrupt facial harmony and is one of the most common reasons patients seek rhinoplasty.

Post-Traumatic Nasal Deformities

Nasal fractures or untreated injuries can lead to long-term deformity, nasal collapse, or breathing issues.

Previous Rhinoplasty Complications

Revision cases may involve asymmetry, structural weakness, or persistent nasal obstruction. Correcting these conditions requires advanced ENT expertise, careful surgical planning, and a deep understanding of nasal airflow and support structures.

How Rhinoplasty Corrects Nasal Deformities & Fractures

Rhinoplasty for nasal deformities and fractures involves correcting both the external nasal shape and the internal airway.

1. Functional Rhinoplasty

Functional rhinoplasty improves breathing by correcting:

  • Deviated septum
  • Internal nasal obstruction
  • Nasal valve collapse
  • Trauma-related airway narrowing

This approach is essential for patients with chronic nasal blockage, snoring, or sleep-related breathing problems.

2. Cosmetic Rhinoplasty

Cosmetic rhinoplasty refines nasal appearance while preserving natural facial features. Common goals include:

  • Straightening a crooked nose
  • Reducing a nasal hump
  • Refining the nasal tip
  • Improving symmetry and facial balance

Careful facial analysis ensures results remain natural and proportionate.

3. Reconstructive Rhinoplasty

Used for complex cases such as:

  • Severe nasal fractures
  • Congenital deformities
  • Failed or revision rhinoplasty

Techniques may include cartilage grafting, structural support reconstruction, and bridge or tip rebuilding.

4. Septorhinoplasty (Functional + Cosmetic)

Septorhinoplasty combines septoplasty and rhinoplasty to correct:

  • Deviated septum
  • External nasal deformities
  • Breathing obstruction

This provides the best long-term results for patients with both functional and aesthetic concerns.

Rhinoplasty for Nostril Asymmetry & Alar Base Concerns

Nostril asymmetry is extremely common and may result from natural anatomical differences, previous nasal injury, deviated septum, weak or uneven cartilage, or prior rhinoplasty.

Alar Base Reduction (Alarplasty)

  • Corrects wide or flared nostrils
  • Incisions hidden in natural creases
  • Can be done alone or with full rhinoplasty

Tip Rhinoplasty

Used when asymmetry is caused by tip deviation or weak cartilage:

  • Improves nostril alignment
  • Strengthens tip support
  • Corrects unilateral collapse

Septoplasty with Rhinoplasty

Corrects septal deviation that pushes one nostril outward, improving airflow, symmetry, and nasal base alignment.

Revision Rhinoplasty

For patients with nostril collapse, uneven healing, scar tissue or cartilage shift. Advanced ENT techniques restore symmetry and structural stability.

  • Follow-up appointments are essential
  • Post-operative instructions are provided individually

Your care plan is tailored to support safe recovery and optimal healing.

When Should You Consult an ENT Specialist?

Consult an Nose & Sinus Care specialist if you experience:

  • Difficulty breathing through one or both nostrils
  • Chronic nasal congestion or sinus infections
  • Snoring or sleep apnea symptoms
  • Crooked or injured nose
  • Low confidence related to nose shape
  • Persistent symptoms after trauma or previous surgery

Accurate ENT evaluation ensures safe planning and optimal outcomes.

Why ENT-Based Rhinoplasty Matters

Complex nasal deformities require more than surface reshaping. An ENT-based rhinoplasty approach focuses on both form and function, ensuring that aesthetic improvement does not compromise breathing or long-term nasal stability.

By addressing internal nasal structures alongside cosmetic refinement, rhinoplasty can deliver:

  • Improved facial balance
  • Better nasal airflow
  • Enhanced comfort during sleep and exercise
  • Durable, natural-looking results

A consultation allows proper assessment and personalized planning for safe and effective outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Rhinoplasty in Dubai

Can rhinoplasty improve breathing problems?
Yes. Rhinoplasty can significantly improve breathing when nasal obstruction is caused by a deviated septum, nasal valve collapse, internal obstruction, or trauma-related narrowing. In such cases, functional rhinoplasty or septorhinoplasty is performed to restore airflow while maintaining natural nasal shape.
Can rhinoplasty fix a crooked nose permanently?
Yes. When performed by an experienced ENT rhinoplasty surgeon, correction of a crooked nose is long-lasting. The nasal framework is realigned using advanced structural techniques to ensure long-term stability. Minor swelling-related changes may occur during healing, but the structural correction itself is permanent.
Can one surgery correct both a deviated septum and nose shape?
Yes. A combined procedure called septorhinoplasty corrects both the internal septal deviation and external nasal deformity in a single surgery. This approach offers the best results for patients with breathing problems and visible nasal imbalance.
Is nose hump removal cosmetic or functional?
Nasal hump removal is often cosmetic, but many patients also have underlying structural or breathing issues. When hump reduction is combined with septoplasty or internal nasal correction, the procedure becomes functional rhinoplasty, improving both appearance and airflow.
Can rhinoplasty correct nostril asymmetry?
Yes. Rhinoplasty can correct nostril asymmetry using techniques such as Alar base reduction (alarplasty), Tip rhinoplasty, Septoplasty combined with rhinoplasty, or Revision rhinoplasty. The technique used depends on the cause of asymmetry, such as cartilage imbalance, septal deviation, or previous surgery.
What causes nostril asymmetry?
Nostril asymmetry is very common and may result from natural anatomical differences, previous nasal injury or trauma, deviated septum, weak or uneven cartilage support, prior rhinoplasty, or thick/droopy nasal skin. An ENT evaluation helps determine the correct surgical approach.
How long does it take to recover after rhinoplasty?
Most patients return to work within 7–14 days. Swelling and bruising improve within a few weeks. Final refined results appear gradually over 9–12 months. Breathing improvement is often noticeable as healing progresses.
Is rhinoplasty painful?
Rhinoplasty is generally well tolerated. Mild discomfort, swelling, and nasal congestion are expected during early recovery and are managed with prescribed medications. Most patients report minimal pain.
Can rhinoplasty help with snoring or sleep problems?
Yes. If snoring or sleep disturbance is related to nasal obstruction, correcting the airway through functional rhinoplasty or septorhinoplasty can significantly improve breathing during sleep.
What is revision rhinoplasty?
Revision rhinoplasty is performed when a patient has had previous nose surgery and experiences persistent asymmetry, breathing obstruction, nasal collapse, or scar tissue/cartilage shift. These cases require advanced ENT expertise and careful structural reconstruction.
How do I know if I need functional or cosmetic rhinoplasty?
Many patients need both. An ENT consultation includes evaluation of nasal airflow, internal anatomy, external nasal shape, and facial balance. Based on this assessment, a personalized ENT Cosmetic & Functional Surgery plan is created.
When should I consult an ENT specialist for rhinoplasty?
You should consult an ENT specialist if you have difficulty breathing through one or both nostrils, chronic nasal congestion or sinus infections, snoring or sleep-related breathing issues, a crooked or injured nose, dissatisfaction with nose shape, or symptoms after trauma or previous surgery.
Are rhinoplasty results permanent?
Yes. When structural support is properly restored and stabilized, rhinoplasty results are long-lasting. Maintaining nasal function and support is essential for durability.
