Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty reshapes the bone and cartilage of the nose. It can remove a hump, refine a tip that is too wide or reshape the whole nose, and improve your breathing if needed. Dr. Jesús Lago operates at Clínica 3 de Mayo in Madrid, for patients from the UK, Ireland and beyond.

Rhinoplasty in Practice

We tailor the surgery to what needs correcting. Full rhinoplasty treats the whole nose, including your breathing, under general anesthesia. If only the tip or the bridge (the dorsum) needs work, we do it under local anesthesia and you go home the same day. If both need correcting, we treat them together under general anesthesia.

We sculpt the bone with ultrasonic instruments, which cut bone while sparing the surrounding skin, blood vessels and cartilage. This means a shorter recovery. If your airway is blocked, we also correct the septum (septoplasty). A splint protects your nose for the first week.

“The rhinoplasty surgeon Jesús Lago performed on me wasn't just cosmetic, as I'd intended. I went looking for cosmetic surgery to look better, and I came out with a beautiful nose and reconstructive surgery too. Dr. Sara looked after me brilliantly after the operation, with all the dressings I needed. The results are far better than I expected.”
