Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty in Barcelona, performed by Dr. Artur Díaz Carandell, Facial Surgeon.

Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose — the bridge, the tip, the width or an asymmetry — so that it is in harmony with the rest of the face. Each nose is planned individually: depending on the case, Dr. Carandell uses structural (open) rhinoplasty, preservation techniques and piezoelectric (ultrasonic) instruments.

The goal is a nose that fits your face and looks natural — not an “operated” nose.

  • You have had a previous rhinoplasty and are not happy with the result (secondary or revision rhinoplasty).
  • Good general health and realistic expectations.

Not sure? Send three photos (front, profile and three-quarter) and Dr. Carandell will tell you what can be done in your case.
