Rhinoplasty

Dr Anh Nguyen performs aesthetic, functional, and revisional rhinoplasty from her Perth practice using both open and closed technique. Rhinoplasty variants offered include standard aesthetic rhinoplasty, Asian rhinoplasty, ethnic rhinoplasty, and functional rhinoplasty addressing nasal airway obstruction. Procedures are performed under general anaesthesia at accredited Perth hospital facilities, with all surgical planning individualised to the patient's nasal anatomy, facial proportions, and desired outcome.

Rhinoplasty at Dr Anh Specialist Plastic Surgeon in Rivervale, Perth, encompasses aesthetic, functional, and ethnic rhinoplasty variants, performed by a FRACS (Plast) certified plastic surgeon with extensive training in nasal anatomy across diverse facial types. Dr Anh Nguyen offers both open and closed rhinoplasty technique, with approach selection guided by the degree of nasal modification required and the patient's specific anatomical considerations. The open approach — involving a small transcolumellar incision connecting bilateral marginal incisions — provides direct visualisation of the complete nasal framework including the upper lateral cartilages, lower lateral cartilages, nasal bones, and septum, and is preferred for cases requiring significant structural modification, cartilage grafting, or complex tip work. The closed (endonasal) approach keeps all incisions within the nostrils and is appropriate for less extensive cases with good existing structural support. Standard aesthetic rhinoplasty at the Perth practice addresses concerns including dorsal hump reduction, tip refinement, nasal width modification, and symmetry correction. Asian rhinoplasty and ethnic rhinoplasty represent specialist sub-disciplines offered by Dr Anh, acknowledging the distinct anatomical characteristics and aesthetic preferences of patients of East Asian, Southeast Asian, and other non-Caucasian backgrounds — including the desire for augmentation of nasal bridge height, tip projection, and definition while maintaining natural proportions consistent with the patient's ethnicity. Functional rhinoplasty incorporates septoplasty for correction of a deviated nasal septum, turbinate reduction to address mucosal hypertrophy, and spreader graft placement to open the internal nasal valve, addressing breathing impairment. In appropriate cases, functional rhinoplasty may attract partial Medicare rebate coverage. Revisional rhinoplasty — correction of unsatisfactory prior nasal surgery — is also undertaken at the practice. Perth and Western Australia patients seeking rhinoplasty benefit from Dr Anh's dual focus on both the structural and aesthetic aspects of nasal surgery, informed by her specialist plastic surgical training.
