3D rhinoplasty simulator: Rhinoplasty or nose job is a procedure which will change the shape of the nose. It can be done to resolve problems like unsatisfactory appearance, breathing difficulty (due to nasal obstruction), nasal birth defects (such as deviated septum, cleft palate, nasal polyp, etc) and acquired deformity (due to trauma, tumor or infection) but whatever the reason is all patients are concerned about the final shape of their nose. It’s one of the most common cosmetic surgeries done around the world but it also has a relatively low patient satisfaction rate, due to the difficulty of the procedure, and potentially unrealistic patient expectations. The first one can be managed by choosing an experienced surgeon, but we also have a solution for the second problem. If you want to know how we make our patients more satisfied with their nose job, stay with us through this article.

How do you know if a nose job is right for you?
Most patients consider rhinoplasty as a way to give them a more attractive nose shape. But sometimes an attractive nose shape won’t necessarily look good on everyone because each patient has unique facial features.
Having to go through rhinoplasty is scary because the operation will have a huge impact on your appearance and you don’t know what you will look like after the surgery and even if you have a specific nose shape in mind you don’t know if it will actually look good on you or not. Thanks to new technology, by using a 3-D rhinoplasty simulator, we have found a way for you to see how you will probably look like with the nose shape that you have in mind and you’ll see if it suits you face or not. But even if it didn’t, you can try other shapes as well to finally find the shape that looks best on you. So with this method there is no more uncertainty about the results of your nose job and this makes going through rhinoplasty less scary.
How does the 3D rhinoplasty simulator work?
3-D rhinoplasty simulator is a new imaging technology that will show you the result you can expect from your rhinoplasty procedure in 3D.
First, high-resolution images are taken from different angles to capture a 3D image of your face, which takes less than a minute. Then detailed assessment and measurements are obtained and demonstrated on screen. Then, using a special software, personalized changes are applied to different parts of your face based on your unique features. Finally, you can see the before and after images side to side and on multiple angles.
This is especially helpful if you are having multiple surgeries and are conserved about the final results.
By using this technology your surgeon can evaluate several metrics such as shape, depth, height, size and symmetry of your nose. So it’s also easier for your surgeon to plan the procedure and be more prepared. Therefore you will have a more accurate visualization and expectation from the outcome of your surgery.
How can I see what I would look like with a nose job?
You can explain what you want by referring to the screen and showing the surgeon exactly the changes you wish to be made. Then the 3-D simulator will apply the changes that you want from your surgery then your doctor will tell you whether they are achievable or not. Your doctor then suggests possible solutions and you work together on the screen in order to achieve your desired result. But even if you don’t have e specific nose shape in mind your doctor will suggest some shapes based on your features and also his medical experience.
Although this method won’t guarantee your desired results but it will be extremely close to the result of your surgery and it will provide a realistic prediction of your postoperative appearance. This reduces the risk of any misunderstanding between you and your doctor and enables to your doctor to fully understand your expectations. Therefore it gives you more confidence in proceeding with the operation as you have more knowledge about what can and cannot be done.
Can I use the nose job simulator online?
If you search online you will find many apps and tools that will apply the changes you want but you have to keep in mind that they are not accurate. For example Parts of the face which are close to the camera often appear larger than they actually are, that’s why the tip of the nose commonly appear larger in selfies.
Therefore the pictures must be taken in a carefully controlled environment to minimize the effects of variables such as light, distance from the camera, etc.
The 3-D rhinoplasty simulator is a new technology and not all surgeons use it but Mediranco works with the best rhinoplasty surgeons in Iran who use this technology and will try their best to help you achieve your desired look from your surgery.
It’s been proven that the 3-D rhinoplasty simulator is an effective tool to improve communication and expectation between the patient and surgeon.

Key factors to ensure the best possible outcome from rhinoplasty are:
- Choosing an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon and good communication between patient and surgeon.
- A complete examination prior to the surgery, which involves taking the patient’s history, a physical examination, endoscopy and simulation.
