At Cardone Associated Medical Practice in Bari, rhinoplasty surgeries are performed. The word, derived from ancient Greek ῥίς, meaning nose, refers to the specific surgical procedure that allows for reshaping or reconstruction of the nose.



"Rhinoplasty" specifically refers to the modification of the external structural shape of the nose. This procedure can be recommended and performed for aesthetic reasons, but it is equally indicated for correcting functional aspects related to breathing disorders.

The features of the procedure


The nose reconstruction procedures carried out by the staff at Cardone Associated Medical Practice in Bari involve local anaesthesia with patient sedation or general anaesthesia. The shape of the nose is modified by using lasers on the bony and cartilaginous framework.


Recovery typically lasts only a few days, and swelling and bruising diminish quickly, allowing the patient to resume normal social life. To request further information about the procedure and its implications, do not hesitate to contact the studio's staff today.

The ancient origins of rhinoplasty


Nose reconstruction or rhinoplasty is one of the plastic surgery procedures performed by the surgeons at the associated medical practice in Bari.



It is believed that the first to practise and develop this particular type of operation was Sushruta, a physician who lived in India in the 6th century BC. He was the first to describe it in his work, Susrutha Samhita. The Indian physician and his disciples used rhinoplasty to reconstruct noses that had been amputated as a punishment for crimes committed.
