Why Do Men Choose Rhinoplasty?
A rhinoplasty procedure is the same process for both men and women. Some men choose rhinoplasty for cosmetic reasons, but many choose to get their noses surgically corrected due to:
- Sleep apnea
- A deviated septum
- Breathing disorders
- Nasal trauma
Is Male Rhinoplasty Right for You?
When a man’s nose is disproportionate to his face, it can make other features seem out of alignment. For example, men can sometimes feel that an overly large nose makes their jawline appear weak. Rhinoplasty may also help men who feel their noses draw attention away from other facial features, causing their faces to seem unaligned.
Ideal candidates for male rhinoplasty in New Jersey should be in good physical and mental health and have realistic expectations about the surgery results. This procedure should not be performed until the male patient’s nose has fully developed, usually around age 15.
Types of Rhinoplasty for Men Procedures
The nose is an anatomically complicated part of the body for both men and women. However, there are a couple of differences in nasal structure in men, such as the nasal tip being broader and more bulbous in men versus women, who tend to have a finer tip. The skin on a male’s nose is also usually thicker, which means there’s a limit to how much change can be made to this area.
Your options for a male rhinoplasty include:
- Open Rhinoplasty: Incisions are made externally across the strip of skin between the nostrils known as the columella and internally to help reshape the nasal bones, cartilage, and soft tissues.
- Closed Rhinoplasty: Only internal incisions are made to help reshape the nasal bones, cartilage, and soft tissues.
- Tip-plasty: Can be used to reshape the tip of the nose.
- Nostril Reduction: Can be used by making tiny incisions at the outer base of the nostrils to reduce their size.

What Happens During a Male Rhinoplasty Surgery Consultation?
During your consultation, you’ll go over your medical history in detail. It is essential that you share any history of breathing issues or allergies, which could impact the nasal passage and surgery results.
Dr. Franckle will also use Vectra 3D Imaging during the rhinoplasty consultation, which allows patients to view a preview of the results before they choose to go forward with surgery. These images will also be used to create three-dimensional before and after images.
Once Dr. Franckle understands your unique aesthetic goals, he can decide the best type of nose surgery to create your preferred results.
What to Expect From a Male Rhinoplasty Procedure
To begin the male rhinoplasty procedure, Dr. Franckle will make the internal and external incisions, depending on whether it is an open or closed rhinoplasty. The placement of the incisions will depend on your unique surgical goals. Once the incisions are made, Dr. Franckle can lift the soft tissues and gain access to the cartilage and nasal bones that create the shape of your nose. From there, the small cartilages in the top and bridge of your nose can be reshaped, and small cuts in the middle nose bones may also be necessary.
The nasal airway can be opened for patients who have difficulty breathing, and the deviated septum can be straightened. Additional incisions are sometimes made at the outer base of each nostril if there is a desire to alter the nostril size or symmetry. In some cases, a cartilage graft from the ear or septum can also be used to restore the sidewalls of the nostrils.
To complete the male nose job surgery, Dr. Franckle will finalize the underlying tissues and nasal skin placement and close the incisions. Since this is an outpatient procedure, you can return home the same day of your male rhinoplasty.
Cost
The cost of a male rhinoplasty procedure varies based on the patient and how extensive the procedure is. On average, a rhinoplasty costs $7,000-$10,000* for both men and women. Since there might be other factors involved that could affect pricing, we suggest visiting the office to consult with Dr. Franckle for an exact quote.

What Is the Recovery Process Like for a Male Rhinoplasty Procedure?
As with many cosmetic surgeries, you should expect some bruising after your male rhinoplasty in New Jersey. Someone will have to pick you up from your procedure and help you with basic daily activities around the house for the first 1-2 days post-operation. You will be sent home with soft rubber splints placed over the nasal septum and a dorsal bridge splint covering the bridge of the nose after your surgery to assist with healing.
If internal septal splints were also used, they will be removed by Dr. Franckle during your follow-up appointment in the 3 to 4 days following the procedure. The dorsal bridge splint can be removed after 7 to 10 days, depending on your healing progress. You may return to work about seven days after surgery, depending on your recovery progress. Avoid strenuous activities for at least two weeks.
The final result of the reshaping procedure can take up to 12 months to be fully evident, but most patients see their swelling reduced after 2-4 months.
FAQ's
Like any surgical procedure, there are some risks associated with male rhinoplasty. Most patients emerge from the operation without problems or complications. However, the most typical risks involve bleeding and infection. Some people also experience an adverse reaction to anesthesia, nerve damage, or scarring.
While the procedure itself is the same, different factors determine which type of procedure is better for a male patient versus a female patient. All of these details will be discussed during your consultation with Dr. Franckle.
The duration of a male rhinoplasty procedure can vary depending on the complexity and the specific goals of the surgery. On average, a male rhinoplasty can take anywhere from 1.5 to 3 hours. This time frame includes the shaping and restructuring of the nasal bone and cartilage to achieve the desired aesthetic and functional results.
It’s important to note that each patient’s case is unique, and some rhinoplasty surgeries may be shorter or longer based on individual needs and the extent of the changes being made.
