Abstract
Septorhinoplasty is the most commonly performed facial plastic surgery procedure, which aims to correct nasal shape and nasal function. Following the septorhinoplasty procedure, there is a potential risk of postoperative nasal obstruction. In the present study twenty subjects who underwent rhinoplasty for cosmetic or functional reasons were subjected to preoperative and postoperative evaluation of nasal function both objectively and subjectively. Follow up assessment was done two weeks and three months postoperatively. Subjective evaluation was done by the NOSE score technique and objective evaluation by active anterior Rhinomanometry to measure the nasal airway resistance. In conclusion: Rhinoplasty positively affects the nasal function subjectively and objectively in the long term and this is believed to be achieved by proper selection of patients and recognizing the patients who are at high risk of airway compromise so as to use the suitable surgical techniques according to the surgeons experience to achieve a favorable outcome both functional and aesthetical
