Rhinoplasty or
nose surgery
We tell you all about Rhinoplasty in Madrid carried out by Dr. Miguel Fernández Calderón at the Clínica de Cirugía Estética. The nose as a facial center has a fundamental weight in facial aesthetics and beauty of our face. It should give harmony to the whole and be striking for its definition between nasal tip and nasal dorsum as well as between the nose and the rest of the facial mass.
Nasal surgery aims to give harmony to the face by correcting the size of the nose and desired shape in its different parts. And at the same time it tries to improve the respiratory function.
The preoperative consultation to know the patient’s wishes should be very detailed along with a complete exploration. In order to agree on the most precise and appropriate operative plan. The goal is balance and facial enhancement, so it can be combined with procedures on the chin and cheekbones to achieve more natural results.
Rhinoplasty Consultations in Madrid
Rhinoplasty, also called rhinoseptoplasty, is the most frequent facial surgery in my practice because it is a procedure that provides very satisfactory results with minimal risks.
Every day patients with different types of noses come to the practice in Madrid requesting an aesthetic and functional improvement. Although each nose is different, patients’ desires are usually quite similar. The main objectives in most rhinoplasties in my practice are:
- To achieve a straight nasal dorsum both seen from the profile and from the front.
- A defined tip.
- Narrower nasal dorsum and nasal tip.
Achieving a straight nasal dorsum
Achieving a straight nasal dorsum in profile view can be achieved by eliminating the hump (making the nose smaller).Or by increasing the projection of the nasal tip shape and nasal root region. The correct technique in each case to achieve a natural nasal dorsum will depend on a detailed analysis of the nasofacial angles and measurements in each case.
Rhino-medical rhinoplasty or nasal bioplasty is currently becoming fashionable. These techniques performed by aesthetic doctors aim to fill in the areas of the nasal root and nasal tip to give the impression of a straight nose in profile view.
The main disadvantage of these techniques is that they achieve this result by enlarging the nose, often disproportionately. As a result, the noses appear large. And not at all more beautiful or harmonious with the rest of the face.
There are also noses that look as if they need a reduction of the nasal dorsum in order to be straight in the profile view. In other words, simply eliminating the hump. But not infrequently (20%) the best result is achieved by combining techniques to reduce the hump with techniques to increase the nasal root and give more projection to the nasal tip.
Even so, the majority of rhinoplasty procedures in Madrid (70%) that we perform are dorsal reduction. And when the preoperative analysis recommends it, it gives us very natural and satisfactory results.

Will my face change after rhinoplasty surgery in Madrid?
When it is well indicated, Rhinoplasty in Madrid is one of the most appreciated procedures in facial cosmetic surgery. But many patients still have doubts about the results they can expect. And, one of the main concerns of patients who are thinking about having this surgery is whether it will change their face.
Patients are looking for a result that will enhance their nose in a natural way, but they are naturally concerned about whether it will change the appearance of their face too much or whether they will be recognised and comfortable with their new look.
To answer these questions it is necessary to understand the nose as the centre of the face. In addition, you need to know the basics of facial aesthetics in terms of proportions.
The image above shows the ideal proportions of facial aesthetics in the longitudinal and horizontal plane. It can be seen how the height of the nose would mark the height of the middle facial third when dividing the face into thirds.
The face should have a harmonious and proportionate appearance. For this, the height of the nose should measure approximately one third of the facial length. More importantly, the base i.e. the width of the nose marks the central fifth of the face if its width is divided into 5 parts and this should measure one fifth of the total width of the face.
The importance of the nose in facial proportions
Taking into account the nasal importance in facial proportions we can deduce that it is indeed possible to notice a change in the face globally when undergoing rhinoplasty, but this change must be controlled and always positive. In fact we know that a thinner nose is one of the main desires of patients who undergo this surgery and understanding facial proportions we know why this is so.
When we perform rhinoplasty we can change the nasal height to some extent, but of course a fundamental manoeuvre in most rhinoplasty is to narrow the nose. Knowing that the width of the nose at its base should be similar or somewhat less than the width of the eyes, we calculate the need to perform lateral osteotomies and to modify the size of the nostrils and nasal wings.
Patients always ask me this question and I, as a plastic surgeon, have to tell them that they will look a little different but certainly better.The eyes do not change, nor does the mouth, but the role of the nose in the face is very important. Rhinoseptoplasty can provide us with elements to improve its size in terms of facial proportions.
