More about male rhinoplasty
Although traditionally thought of as a cosmetic surgery for female patients, an increasing number of male patients are looking to nose reduction and reshaping procedures to change the appearance of their nose and their overall facial balance.
In fact, according to the American Board of Plastic Surgeons, more than 75,000 male nose reduction and reshaping procedures are performed yearly in the United States. Male nose reduction or reshaping is a surgery that has become very popular for men in light of the fact that it can help alter the shape and contour of the nose, which can be a source of embarrassment and self-consciousness for many men. In their Houston, TX clinic, Dr. Michael Eisemann and Dr. Bradley Eisemann work with each male patient to envision the steps of nose reduction and reshaping in order to achieve the correct balance for a masculine facial structure.

Male rhinoplasty is a procedure that restructures the nose to improve its appearance and function. The nose reduction and reshaping procedure at the Eisemann Plastic Surgery Center in Houston, TX involves a small incision either inside the nose or across the skin that separates the nostrils. The cartilage and bone that make up the framework of the nose are then exposed and may be sculpted to create the desired shape and profile.
There are many ways in which a male nose can be altered through rhinoplasty, or nose reduction and reshaping, including reducing or increasing the size of the nose, changing the shape of the tip or the bridge, narrowing the span of the nostrils, or altering the angle between the nose and the upper lip, and using your own cartilage grafts.
