# Rhinoplasty

Cosmetic rhinoplasty is surgery that changes the external shape of the nose for aesthetic reasons. It can address a dorsal hump on the bridge, the shape or projection of the nasal tip, the width of the nose, the appearance of the nostrils, asymmetry, and structural changes following past injury. The right surgical plan depends on your anatomy, your specific concerns, and what is realistically achievable for your nose. Many patients arrive expecting a particular technique or outcome, and during consultation it becomes clear that a different approach is more appropriate for their underlying structure.

Dr Scott J Turner is a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (FRACS, 2013) and holds AHPRA registration MED0001654827. He performs cosmetic rhinoplasty for patients consulting at his Bondi Junction (39 Grosvenor Street) and Manly (Suite 504, Level 5, 39 East Esplanade) clinics. Every cosmetic rhinoplasty patient is assessed clinically and follows the AHPRA cosmetic surgery process, including two consultations and a structured cooling-off period, before any procedure is scheduled.
