Rhinoplasty (nose job) is a surgical procedure to reshape the nose for aesthetic improvement or functional correction, addressing issues like size, shape, symmetry, nostril width, nasal tip projection, bridge humps, or breathing difficulties caused by structural problems. The procedure can be performed using open technique (external incision across the columella for complex cases requiring extensive reshaping) or closed technique (all incisions inside the nostrils for less extensive modifications). Surgery typically takes 1-3 hours under general anesthesia, with patients experiencing swelling and bruising that peaks at 2-3 days and gradually subsides over 2-3 weeks. A nasal splint is worn for 5-7 days, and patients should avoid strenuous activities for 2-3 weeks. Final results become apparent after 6-12 months as swelling completely resolves. Mexican plastic surgeons and ENT specialists often trained at prestigious international institutions offer rhinoplasty at 50-70% less cost than US prices while maintaining high safety standards and using advanced techniques. Many facilities are accredited by international organizations and cater specifically to medical tourists with comprehensive packages including surgery, recovery accommodation, and follow-up care. Ideal candidates should be in good health, have realistic expectations, and allow adequate recovery time before traveling home.
