What are the risks and complications associated with a nose job?

Steve Fallek (Plastic Surgeon & Medical Director, Face Focus Medical Spa, New York City) gives expert video advice on: What is a "nose job" or "rhinoplasty"?; How is a nose job performed?; Can I get more then one nose job? and more...

The primary risk of having a nose is the risks of anesthesia, which for most patients should be minimal. The real concern patients have about a nose job, or rhinoplasty, is making sure that they have a good result. The nose is obviously a prominent part of the face, so any small defect or abnormality can be seen after a nose job. It's important that you go to an experienced plastic surgeon who really knows how to take care of noses.
