Patients usually seek a rhinoplasty because their nose is too big, has a hump or is distorted. Modern techniques allow correction of all elements that require treatment in a single operation. Mr Floyd uses imaging software to help define the ideal shape and size of nose that most suits your facial features and uses that information to help plan surgery.
