Frequently Asked Questions
A beautiful nose is a combination of features including a smooth bridge, defined tip, well proportioned and in harmony with the persons’ face and body shape.
There are a spectrum of technical skills including open (skin incision) or closed (no skin incision) techniques, use of tissue grafts for sculpting and re-shaping the nose (nasal septum cartilage or man-made materials), cartilage modifications and stitching, narrowing by breaking the bones of the nose, and finally reshaping of the nostrils.
Different techniques must be tailored to the individual, which requires both skill and experience. In addition re-shaping of the nose requires techniques to maintain functional breathing, to avoid narrowing of the airways and breathing difficulties.
There is a degree of artistry with rhinoplasty, the shape and contours of a person’s nose sit in the centre of a person’s face and draw continued attention. The Key is the nose fitting a person’s face and body shape. Dr De Silva uses skills to obtain a natural-looking nose and avoid the signs of surgery such as the scooped or ski-slope nose or scars from size reduction.
