The problem of stuffy nose is caused by nasal obstruction due to enlarged turbinates. In such a condition, the person is forced to breathe through the mouth and feels a constant discomfort in breathing. Other problems like sleep apnea, snoring, headaches are also common complaints in such cases. So, turbinate rhinoplasty is performed to remove excess tissue that have become swollen either due to allergies or other irritants to restore normal breathing function.

Along with the shape & size of the nose, its projection also plays a crucial role to make it look aesthetically pleasing. So, this type of rhinoplasty is either done to reduce the projection of the nose by trimming the cartilage or to increase projection by adding cartilage.

An Alarplasty is performed by the doctor to reduce the width of the nasal base thereby making the angles of this triangle steeper and making the nostrils meet the face. This is more popular amongst women.

The shape of the nose also varies as per one’s ethnicity. So, many times when a person opts for rhinoplasty, he/she still wants to retain the unique characteristics of their nose.
