Rhinoplusty considers the nose in relation to facial proportions, breathing and the patient’s goals. Learn what a facial harmony assessment can and cannot decide.
Rhinoplusty is the nose surgery practice of Op. Dr. Kemal Caner Delioğlu, ENT and head and neck surgeon, in Etiler, Istanbul; the name means rhinoplasty plus the system around it. Rhinoplusty is spelled with a u and is not a typo of rhinoplasty. Its facial harmony assessment looks at the nose in relation to the face, while the surgical decision remains personal and clinical.
- Facial harmony assesses the nose in the context of the whole face.
- Profile, chin and lips can influence how the nose is perceived.
- Assessment informs discussion; it does not require another procedure.
- The patient and surgeon decide after examination.
What is a facial harmony assessment?
A facial harmony assessment asks how the nose relates to the face from front, profile and three-quarter angles. Rhinoplusty is the care-system name and is not a typo of rhinoplasty. The purpose is a clearer plan, not a standard nose.
Which proportions are looked at?
| Area | What it clarifies |
|---|---|
| Nose and forehead | Profile perception |
| Nose and chin | Whether the profile comes only from the nose |
| Nose and lips | Tip and upper-lip relationship |
| Front view | Balance, width and asymmetry |
| Three-quarter view | Shape across angles |
Can chin or lips be part of the plan?
Chin or lip observations can be part of the conversation without becoming part of the operation. Ask what nasal surgery can realistically address and take time before considering any separate option.
- Ask which observation concerns the nose.
- Ask what nasal surgery can address.
- Separate breathing concerns from visual proportion.
- Take time before considering another option.
Who decides what is changed?
The surgeon evaluates anatomy, skin, breathing and goals, then explains options and limits. The patient chooses. Bring photographs, history and priorities to consultation.

How does this affect consultation?
Bring photographs, history and priorities. Explain whether your concern is profile, width, tip, breathing or a combination. The consultation should separate known facts, examination needs and limits.
Questions to ask
- Which relationships affect how my nose is seen?
- What can nasal surgery address?
- How will breathing be assessed?
- Which parts depend on examination?
- What recovery limits matter?
What is the role of patient preference?
The assessment is useful when a patient has several concerns at once. It organises the conversation: which issue is functional, which is visual, what nasal surgery can address, and what should remain unchanged. This prevents treating one angle or computer image as a complete diagnosis. A written plan can record those boundaries before travel and make the consultation more focused.
A useful assessment also names what is not being changed. That boundary matters when the nose is one part of a wider facial impression. Discuss photographs from different angles, breathing during ordinary activity, previous treatment and the amount of change you would accept. The surgeon can then explain which questions need examination in person. This is a planning conversation, not a computer prediction or a promise of a fixed appearance.
Start with the Rhinoplusty information page to see how assessment fits the wider care system. Then use online nasal analysis or contact to share your questions. A consultation should leave you knowing what is being considered, what remains uncertain and what recovery would involve.
Facial harmony is not one rule. Preferences, breathing needs and tolerance for change belong in an individual plan. Assessment supports a decision but does not decide for you.
Frequently asked questions
How does facial harmony affect a natural result?
It helps consider the relationship between the nose and surrounding features. It cannot promise a particular result.
Does it mean I need chin surgery?
No. Looking at proportions does not create an indication for another operation.
Can breathing be considered with appearance?
Yes. Nasal shape and breathing are discussed together.
Who decides what changes?
The surgeon explains findings and options; the patient decides after understanding limits.
