This surgical procedure is commonly known as a nose job, but other synonyms for rhinoplasty include nasal surgery, nose reshaping, and nose augmentation. Rhinoplasty can be performed for cosmetic or functional reasons, such as to correct a deviated septum or improve breathing. In addition to the terms mentioned above, other synonyms for rhinoplasty include nasal reconstruction, nose job surgery, and nose sculpting. Regardless of the terminology, any surgical alteration to the nose should only be performed by a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon.
