Nasal tip correction.
Does your nasal tip bother you? Perhaps it looks too broad, too bulbous, too droopy or simply out of keeping with your features. A targeted nasal tip correction can change that — with subtle changes that underline your natural beauty.
The nasal tip is a central element of your face.
A nasal tip that is too broad, droopy or asymmetrical can disturb the harmony of your features. Often a hump, a deviation of the nose or other aspects should or can be taken into account and corrected alongside a nasal tip correction, in order to achieve a harmonious result. In some cases, though, a targeted correction of the nasal tip alone is enough to improve your appearance considerably.
At the Kuzbari Centre we rely on subtle changes that bring out your natural beauty.

Rhinoplasty — from the first consultation to the aftercare
Specialisation. Safety. Experience.
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.
From the first consultation with 3D simulation, through the operation in our own high-tech operating theatres, to the aftercare — everything under one roof, so that your nasal tip correction goes safely, precisely and as comfortably as possible.
The highest possible safety. We have three of the most modern operating theatres in Austria. Our team specialises exclusively in aesthetic medicine. As a clinic we are inspected several times a year by independent bodies. All the materials and implants we use are selected on the basis of scientific studies.
Your nasal tip correction step by step

The recovery room, a thorough follow-up conversation the next morning, discharge with your surgeon's emergency number, regular check-ups until the final result after 6 – 12 months.
Why is cartilage grafted?

A nasal tip that looks natural.
The nasal tip determines the overall impression of the nose — and it is often millimetres that make the difference. The goal is never a “made” tip, but one that looks so self-evident it might always have been that way.
When the proportions are right, the nose recedes into the background — and your eyes come to the fore.

Answers about nasal tip correction
Is a nasal tip correction painful?
During the operation you feel nothing thanks to the anaesthesia. After the procedure our patients usually report a slight feeling of pressure or a headache — both easily treated with painkillers.
How long does healing take?
After 2 – 3 weeks you are presentable; after 4 – 6 weeks you can resume sport and strenuous activities. The final result is visible after 6 – 12 months.
Will there be scars?
With the open technique a small, barely visible scar on the columella is possible. In some cases we also use the closed technique, in which all the incisions are made inside the nose — with no visible scars.
Can breathing be affected?
Our specialists take care to preserve or improve the function of the nose. Where necessary a septum correction can be integrated to optimise the breathing. Breathing will be temporarily reduced after the operation by the swelling of the mucous membrane — that is part of the healing process.
How much does a nasal tip correction cost?
The cost depends on the extent of the procedure. At the first consultation you receive a transparent quotation.
Is the result permanent?
Yes, the results are permanent. Slight changes through the ageing process are possible, but they barely affect the result.
