Types of Rhinoplasty: Which One Is Right for You?

Your nose is more than just a feature — it’s central to your identity, your expression, and your confidence. So if you're exploring rhinoplasty, you’re not chasing perfection. You’re choosing alignment — with how you feel on the inside, and how you show up in the world.

At Jorja Aesthetics, we offer rhinoplasty that’s bold, precise, and unapologetically personal. Every procedure is tailored to your facial harmony, anatomy, and story — not a template.

Here’s your fearless, human-first guide to the types of rhinoplasty — and how we do things differently.

1. Open Rhinoplasty

Best for: Structural correction, complex reshaping, revision cases

Open rhinoplasty is a highly detailed procedure that involves a small incision across the columella (the tissue between your nostrils), allowing full access to the nasal framework.

It’s ideal for:

• Major reshaping of the nose tip or bridge
• Correcting breathing issues
• Precision correction in revision rhinoplasty

At Jorja, we use this approach for patients who need dramatic or highly customised reshaping — because visibility equals control, and control equals confidence in your results.

2. Closed Rhinoplasty

Best for: Subtle reshaping, no external scar.

Closed rhinoplasty involves incisions made inside the nostrils, leaving no visible scar. This technique is perfect for patients seeking:

• Minor refinement
• Smoother contours
• Faster recovery

While it offers less access than open rhinoplasty, it’s ideal for straightforward adjustments — and often delivers quicker healing and less swelling.

3. Preservation Rhinoplasty

Best for: Natural-looking changes, especially for dorsal humps

This advanced technique allows us to adjust the nose’s internal structures without disrupting its external integrity — preserving the dorsal lines (the slope and structure of the bridge).

Preservation rhinoplasty is for those who want:

• Subtle refinement, not reconstruction
• A “still me, but better” result
• Fewer visible changes and a more natural post-op look

It reflects the Jorja mindset: elevate what’s real, don’t erase it.

4. Septorhinoplasty

Best for: Functional + cosmetic correction

A septorhinoplasty addresses both the aesthetics of the nose and internal breathing issues caused by a deviated septum. It improves airflow while simultaneously reshaping the nose — offering the best of both worlds.

Patients typically choose this when:

• Breathing issues are affecting quality of life
• The septum is crooked, displaced or collapsed
• Cosmetic and functional goals go hand-in-hand

5. Revision Rhinoplasty

Best for: Correcting or improving a previous rhinoplasty

Revision rhinoplasty is one of the most complex surgeries we perform. It’s also one of the most emotionally charged — because these patients have often been let down before.

Our expert-led surgical team specialises in second-chance transformations. Using 3D visualisation via Adoreal, we create an ultra-precise plan to rebuild trust and deliver results you can finally believe in.

Which Type of Rhinoplasty Is Right for You?

There’s no one-size-fits-all. That’s why your Jorja journey starts with:

• A detailed consultation
• A Silhouette Smart Questionnaire to map your goals, fears, and priorities
• Adoreal 3D previews, so you can visualise your expected results before making a decision

Whether you're seeking harmony, definition, or to undo the effects of a past procedure, we work to ensure your result feels not only right — but real.
