About the Procedure

What Is Rhinoplasty, and Is It Right for You?

Rhinoplasty — commonly called a nose job — is one of the most technically demanding procedures in facial plastic surgery. It requires a deep understanding of nasal anatomy, facial proportion, and the long-term behaviour of cartilage and tissue.

At 8 West Clinic, every rhinoplasty is performed by Dr. Thomas Buonassisi — a board-certified facial plastic surgeon who has dedicated his career exclusively to the face. His approach prioritises natural results that complement your unique features, not a standardised aesthetic.
