Rhinoplasty at Adnova Clinic with Mr Tim Biggs
Rhinoplasty—commonly known as a “nose job”—is one of the most intricate and rewarding procedures in facial plastic surgery. It can improve both the appearance and the function of the nose, helping patients breathe easier and feel more confident.
At Adnova Clinic, Mr Tim Biggs, Consultant ENT and Rhinoplasty Surgeon, offers a full range of advanced rhinoplasty techniques. He performs rhinoplasty surgery exclusively at Adnova, ensuring the highest standards of specialist care.
Types of Rhinoplasty Offered
Cosmetic Rhinoplasty
Cosmetic rhinoplasty focuses on the external appearance of the nose. Patients may seek this procedure to refine a hump, straighten a crooked nose, adjust the nasal tip, or achieve better overall balance with other facial features.
Functional Rhinoplasty
Some patients struggle with nasal obstruction due to structural problems such as valve collapse or a deviated septum. Functional rhinoplasty restores breathing while maintaining (or enhancing) a natural nasal appearance.
Dorsal Preservation Rhinoplasty
A modern technique that preserves the natural dorsum (bridge) of the nose while reshaping its profile. This approach can achieve elegant results with less disruption of nasal anatomy, often leading to quicker recovery and more stable long-term outcomes.
Piezo Rhinoplasty
Using advanced ultrasonic (piezoelectric) instruments, this technique allows precise reshaping of the nasal bones with minimal trauma to surrounding tissues. Patients typically benefit from:
Less bruising and swelling
Greater accuracy in contouring
Faster recovery times

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): Rhinoplasty at Adnova Clinic
What is rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty is surgery to reshape the nose. It can be performed for cosmetic reasons, to improve facial balance and appearance, and/or for functional reasons, to improve nasal breathing and airflow.
Who performs rhinoplasty at Adnova Clinic?
All rhinoplasty procedures are performed by Mr Tim Biggs, Consultant ENT and Rhinoplasty Surgeon. He undertakes rhinoplasty surgery exclusively at Adnova Clinic.
What types of rhinoplasty do you offer?

Cosmetic rhinoplasty
Functional rhinoplasty
Combined functional and cosmetic septorhinoplasty
Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty
Piezo (ultrasonic) rhinoplasty
The approach is tailored to your anatomy, goals, and breathing needs.
What is the difference between cosmetic and functional rhinoplasty?
Cosmetic rhinoplasty focuses on the appearance of the nose, such as refining a hump or tip. Functional rhinoplasty addresses breathing problems caused by structural issues like a deviated septum or nasal valve collapse. Many patients benefit from a combined approach.
What is dorsal preservation rhinoplasty?
Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty reshapes the nose while preserving the natural bridge structure. This can result in smoother contours, less disruption of anatomy, and often more stable long-term results in suitable patients.
What is piezo rhinoplasty?
Piezo rhinoplasty uses ultrasonic instruments to reshape nasal bones with high precision. Benefits often include less bruising and swelling, greater accuracy, and a smoother recovery compared with traditional techniques.
Am I suitable for these modern techniques?
Suitability depends on your nasal anatomy, skin type, previous surgery, and goals. This is assessed carefully during your consultation.
What happens at the initial consultation?
Your consultation includes a detailed discussion of concerns and goals, assessment of nasal structure and breathing, and an explanation of which techniques are appropriate and realistic for you.
Is rhinoplasty performed as a day-case procedure?
Yes. Rhinoplasty is usually performed under general anaesthetic as a day-case, allowing you to return home the same day.
How long is recovery after rhinoplasty?
Most bruising and swelling improves within 2–3 weeks. Subtle swelling settles gradually, with final results evolving over 6–12 months, particularly at the nasal tip.
Will my results look natural?
The aim is always a natural, balanced result that suits your face and maintains long-term nasal function, rather than an over-operated appearance.
Why is surgery performed exclusively at Adnova Clinic?
Adnova Clinic is a purpose-built facility focused on cosmetic and functional facial surgery, offering privacy, safety, and continuity of care from consultation through to recovery.
