Is there a tailored approach to male rhinoplasty?

Male rhinoplasty requires a tailored approach, one that respects masculine facial structure and achieves balance without softening natural definition.

While the principles of rhinoplasty are similar across all patients, male noses often require preservation of a stronger bridge, a less rotated nasal tip, and careful attention to overall facial proportions.

Men also tend to seek surgery for functional reasons, such as breathing issues following injury or chronic obstruction caused by a deviated septum.
Revision cases are not uncommon, and achieving a natural, masculine aesthetic relies on structural precision, understanding of anatomy, and experience in functional restoration.

Mr Bast’s approach focuses on improving both form and function, creating results that enhance confidence while maintaining the patient’s individual character.

Common Concerns Before Surgery

Feeling nervous before rhinoplasty is completely normal, it’s a significant decision and one that deserves careful consideration.

Many patients share similar concerns before surgery.

Common questions include:
• What if I don’t like the result?
• How long will recovery really take?
• Will it change how I look too much?
• What will breathing feel like afterwards?

Mr Bast and his team understand that these are important and valid thoughts. Every patient is given the time and information they need to feel confident in their choice, from detailed preoperative discussions to a cooling-off period before the final consultation.

During consultations, Mr Bast uses imaging, examination, and clear explanation to ensure expectations are realistic and that patients understand both the aesthetic and functional aspects of their procedure.

The goal is always the same: to achieve results that feel natural, balanced, and completely in harmony with the patient’s features, while providing reassurance and support at every step.

A recent patient shared their experience after undergoing septorhinoplasty with Mr Florian Bast, describing the results as life-changing, both in appearance and function.

They were initially anxious about the procedure, particularly around scarring and recovery, but were delighted to find the incision scar completely invisible and healing far smoother than expected. Breathing is now effortless, and they can finally enjoy clear airflow and comfort throughout the day and night.

Importantly, they were able to maintain their natural nasal shape, with subtle refinements that restored balance and harmony to their features.
Feedback like this reflects Mr Bast’s commitment to precision, honesty, and care at every stage of the journey, from consultation to long-term recovery.

Does everyone bruise after rhinoplasty surgery?

No, major bruising is not common. It is normal to have some swelling around the area the day after surgery, but the majority of patients should not get panda-like bruising.

The Cooling-Off Period Explained

Before proceeding to surgery, patients take a cooling-off period, a vital step in ensuring every decision is made with complete confidence.

After the second consultation, patients are invited to take time to reflect on their discussions, review their goals, and prepare any further questions before returning for a third meeting with Mr Bast.

During this final consultation, every aspect of the procedure is revisited in detail, including expected results, recovery timelines, and risks.

This reflective period forms a crucial part of ethical surgical practice. It ensures patients never feel rushed, have time to make informed choices, and can move forward with full trust in their decision.

It’s one of the many ways Mr Bast and his team prioritise clarity, transparency, and patient wellbeing throughout the rhinoplasty journey.

Does Rhinoplasty Change Your Smile?

It’s one of the most frequently asked questions during rhinoplasty consultations- “Will my smile change?”

In the early stages of recovery, some patients notice that their upper lip feels slightly stiff or their smile appears different. This is temporary and occurs due to swelling, support sutures, placed grafts and gentle changes to the soft tissue around the base of the nose.

As healing progresses and swelling subsides, normal movement returns, and your smile settles back to how it felt before surgery.

In fact, for many patients, refining the shape and projection of the nose can enhance facial balance, allowing the smile and other features to appear more harmonious overall.

Temporary changes are simply part of the body’s healing process- not a permanent alteration to expressions.

Around 60% of Mr Bast’s patients come to him for revision rhinoplasty, seeking improvement after a previous nose surgery.⁠

The reasons vary, but most people choose revision surgery because they are:⁠
• Unhappy with the aesthetic result⁠
• Experiencing functional problems such as breathing difficulties⁠
• Or needing correction for both appearance and function⁠

Revision rhinoplasty is highly specialised and often more complex than a first-time procedure. It requires precision, experience, and a deep understanding of nasal anatomy.⁠

With extensive expertise in both functional and aesthetic rhinoplasty, Mr Bast helps patients achieve natural results that restore balance, confidence, and comfort in breathing.⁠

Septoplasty is a functional procedure designed to straighten a deviated septum, helping to restore clear breathing and improve quality of life. For many patients, recovery is smoother than they expect, with minimal discomfort and excellent long-term outcomes.

At every stage, from the first consultation to post-operative care, my focus is on ensuring patients feel informed, supported, and confident in their treatment.

It’s always rewarding to receive such kind feedback, and I’m grateful to every patient who shares their experience.
