Modifying the Shape of the Nose
Bone or cartilage removal may be used to constrict an excessively big nose. In some cases, cartilage grafts may be added during nose surgery.
The cartilage most frequently used for this purpose comes from the septum, the partition in the middle of the nose. On rare occasions, a piece of rib cartilage or ear cartilage can be used.

Repairing a Crooked Septum
To enhance breathing, a deviated septum can be straightened and the protrusion inside the nose can be diminished.
5
Closing the Wound
The nasal skin and tissue are redraped, incisions are closed, and the nose's underlying structure is moulded into the desired shape.
To change the size of the nostrils, further incisions may be made in their folds.
