The benefits you would not want to do without for your nose surgery.

There is hardly a clinic in Austria in which more operations in the field of aesthetic nasal surgery are carried out each year. At the Kuzbari Centre no fewer than three specialists devote themselves to facial surgery: Univ. Doz. Dr Rafic Kuzbari, Dr Christoph Grill and DDr. Jessica Wittmann.

The Confidence Effect

Can a rhinoplasty really change a life? Dr Christoph Grill on the confidence effect — how people set down a burden they have carried for years after a nose correction, appear with more self-confidence and change, often quite subtly: different hair, more smiling, a new presence.

1 · State-of-the-art methods & technology

The entire spectrum of nasal surgery.

At the Kuzbari Centre we set the standard in nasal surgery. Our experienced team of surgeons masters every technique of modern rhinoplasty. Whether an open or closed method is right for you, whether you would like a nose reduction, an adjustment of the nasal tip or the removal of a nasal hump — you are in the best hands with us.

We combine medical expertise with an aesthetic eye to achieve the optimal result for every patient. This specialisation is essential precisely for rhinoplasty: the greatest precision and years of experience are called for here — after all, both aesthetics and function have to be brought into harmony in a single operation. You will find the overview of rhinoplasty in Vienna at the Kuzbari Centre on our home page.

The technique in detail

Nose-bridge-preserving technique: dorsal preservation.

We work a great deal with the modern nose-bridge-preserving technique known as dorsal preservation, as well as with hybrid techniques — not exclusively with traditional structural septorhinoplasty. The natural nasal bridge is preserved instead of being taken down and rebuilt.

This has three advantages: the result looks particularly natural, it is stable in the long term, and the risk of later irregularities on the nasal bridge is reduced — which counts above all with thin skin, because there even the smallest edge becomes visible. Certain deviations also recur less often.

An honest classification matters to us: dorsal preservation is not generally superior, but for many findings it is the gentler choice. Whether it is an option for your nose is shown by the examination in the initial consultation — and that is precisely why our surgeons master both routes.

The technique in detail

A nasal tip that still sits right in ten years.

We stabilise the nasal tip using modern cartilage-supported techniques. This significantly reduces the risk of drooping of the nasal tip over the years.

That is why we place so much emphasis on supporting structures during planning: a nasal tip is not only shaped, it is carried. The cartilage for this comes from your own body, usually from the septum, which is addressed anyway in a functional correction. It grows in and changes with the tissue.

Together with the nose-bridge-preserving technique, both steps pursue the same goal: a result that is convincing not only after six months but remains stable in the long term.

Thick skin and ethnic nasal shapes

New techniques from Brazil.

In 2026 Dr. Christoph Grill and DDr. Jessica Wittmann spent a fellowship in Brazil working intensively with new and modern techniques of rhinoplasty — with a focus on thick skin and on ethnic nasal shapes. These techniques now feed into the work at the Kuzbari Centre.

Noses with thick skin, a broad bony base or a tip with little definition need a strategy of their own: building up rather than taking down. A stable cartilage framework carries the tip against the thick skin and gives it from within the definition that cannot be worked out from the outside. Added to that is careful handling of the soft-tissue envelope, which with thick skin co-determines over months how fine the result finally looks. The character of your nose is preserved in the process.

Measured, not estimated. During her nasal operations DDr. Jessica Wittmann also works with the projectometer: the sterile measuring instrument records the projection of the nasal tip and the height of the bridge in millimetres — before the first step and after every further one, each time against the plan from your 3D simulation.

Nobody can spot the best rhinoplasty

Does a nose have to look as though it has been operated on? No, says Dr Christoph Grill, dispelling one of the biggest myths: the real art is not making a nose smaller — it is making the procedure invisible.

2 · 3D simulation

Seeing the result in advance.

Anyone unhappy with their nose also knows what they would like to change. But will it actually look good? Are the proportions right — and, far more importantly: do doctor and patient have the same picture in mind?

Our Vectra 3D simulation device has an answer to all of these questions: a precise three-dimensional model of your face that you can model together with us according to your wishes. That way we make sure we have the same idea of your future nose as you do.

Our 3D simulation shows your future nose not only in profile, but also from the front and from below. So you see your possible result from exactly the angles from which other people see you every day — and we talk about the same image before the operation. On the day of surgery these views are on hand in the operating theatre.

3 · A state-of-the-art surgical wing

Our own operating theatres, everything under one roof.

At the Kuzbari Centre we have three state-of-the-art operating theatres of our own, which we use exclusively for our aesthetic procedures. From reception through anaesthesia and nursing to the recovery area, everything belongs to the same house and the same team — and is set up for procedures such as your rhinoplasty.

This has a consequence you can see in the result: a rhinoplasty takes one to four hours with us. This range is deliberate: we operate in our own operating theatres and therefore without time pressure — for as long as it takes until every detail is right. How long a procedure takes is determined by the findings, not by the appointment schedule.

For you this also means: no waiting times on the day of surgery in which you sit around without having eaten, and a night in your own patient room in the same building. We carry out more than 200 nose operations here every year.

4 · Recognised worldwide

A venue for inter­national specialist congresses.

The Kuzbari Centre for Aesthetic Medicine is the venue for the congress of the world's largest society for aesthetic surgery. Some of the most renowned international plastic surgeons have already been able to work in our operating theatres in that context — and were impressed by the high quality at our centre.

With over 10,000 aesthetic procedures carried out, we are among the largest and most experienced centres in Austria. Our specialists have been honoured several times with the DocFinder Patients' Choice Award — together with the other doctors of the Kuzbari Centre they are among the most reviewed and best rated on DocFinder.

5 · Vienna's most central clinic

In the heart of the old town, in the middle of the Golden Quarter.

The Kuzbari Centre is probably Vienna's most central hospital. Our rooms are in the heart of Vienna's old town, in the middle of the Golden Quarter — at Vienna's premier address.

A new life

What really changes after a rhinoplasty.

A nose is more than a detail of the face. Anyone who has spent years turning away from cameras, avoiding profile shots or looking at their own reflection with reservations knows how much space this topic can take up in everyday life. After surgery, that reservation simply disappears: you feel more beautiful, carry yourself more freely, laugh into the camera without a second thought — and stop thinking about your nose altogether.

Then there is what many only appreciate afterwards: if nasal breathing is improved during the correction, you sleep more soundly, have more stamina during sport and find colds far less of a burden. Aesthetics and function always go hand in hand with us — for a nose that not only looks beautiful but breathes well, too.

What you gain from it

Where you notice the extra effort later.

Every point on this page serves the same purpose: a result you are happy with not just in the first year.

  • A natural result

    Nobody recognises the best rhinoplasty. The aim is never a conspicuous nose, but a nose that nobody notices any more — and that suits your face.

  • Long-term stability

    The nose-bridge-preserving technique and the cartilage-supported nasal tip both work towards the same goal: the shape should hold, not just for the first few years.

  • Free breathing

    We plan every procedure from function outwards. Septum, turbinates and both nasal valves are always examined as well — even when the reason is purely aesthetic.

  • Time where it counts

    More than an hour of initial consultation, one to four hours of surgery without time pressure and check-ups until the final result — all in the same hands.

Questions about technique and process

What patients most often ask about the way we work

What is the nose-bridge-preserving technique?

We work a great deal with the modern nose-bridge-preserving technique known as dorsal preservation, as well as with hybrid techniques — not exclusively with traditional structural septorhinoplasty. The natural nasal bridge is preserved instead of being taken down and rebuilt. The result looks particularly natural, it is stable in the long term, and the risk of later irregularities on the nasal bridge is reduced.

Who is dorsal preservation suitable for?

It is not generally superior, but for many findings it is the gentler choice — especially with thin skin, because there even the smallest edge on the nasal bridge becomes visible. Whether it suits your nose is shown by the examination in the initial consultation.

How do you prevent the nasal tip from dropping later?

We stabilise the nasal tip using modern cartilage-supported techniques. This significantly reduces the risk of drooping of the nasal tip over the years. Cartilage from your own body is used, usually from the septum.

Why does a rhinoplasty take one to four hours with you?

This range is deliberate: we operate in our own operating theatres and therefore without time pressure — for as long as it takes until every detail is right. How long a procedure takes is determined by the findings, not by the appointment schedule.

From which perspectives does the 3D simulation show my result?

Our 3D simulation shows your future nose not only in profile, but also from the front and from below. So you see your possible result from exactly the angles from which other people see you every day — and we talk about the same image before the operation.

Does the same doctor who advises me also operate?

Yes. Consultation, surgery and aftercare are all in one pair of hands with us. You know who will carry out your operation as early as booking — Assoc. Prof. Dr Rafic Kuzbari, Dr Christoph Grill or DDr Jessica Wittmann.
