Rhinoplasty, otherwise known as a “nose job,” is the third most popular facial plastic surgery procedure in the United States. Many individuals opt for this surgery because they feel that their nose does not fit their face. The nose may be crooked, too small, too big, or otherwise misaligned with other facial features.
