Mr Reza Nassab offers rhinoplasty consultations for adults at CLNQ, Battersea Reach, in London, with surgery performed at a private hospital in London. Patients travel from across the capital, the South East and further afield. Rhinoplasty costs from £8,950 and the £150 consultation fee is separate.
The procedure at a glance
Rhinoplasty is surgery to reshape the nose by adjusting its bone and cartilage. Depending on your goals, it may reduce a dorsal hump, straighten a deviated bridge, narrow the nasal bones, refine or support the tip, or adjust the nostrils. If a bent septum is affecting your breathing, this can be addressed at the same time. Every plan is individual and aims to keep the nose in harmony with your other features. The operation can be performed through incisions inside the nostrils (closed approach) or with a small additional incision across the columella (open approach), depending on how much work is needed at the tip. Mr Nassab will explain which approach is recommended for you and why.
Consultation at CLNQ, Battersea Reach
Your consultation is with Mr Nassab in person. He will discuss what you would like to change, your medical history, any breathing problems and previous nasal injuries or surgery. The nose is examined externally and internally, and your skin, cartilage and profile are assessed together. Photographs are taken to help plan and to set realistic expectations. You will receive a written quotation, and a second consultation is recommended before you decide. You are welcome to bring someone with you and to prepare a list of questions in advance. Cosmetic surgery is only offered to adults aged 18 and over.
Surgery at a private London hospital
The operation takes place at a CQC-registered private hospital in London under general anaesthetic, with a consultant anaesthetist. On the day, you will meet the ward team and have a final check-in with Mr Nassab before surgery. Most patients go home the same day or the following morning. You will need a responsible adult to accompany you home and stay with you overnight, and you will be given written aftercare advice and a direct contact number.
Travelling into London for surgery
Many patients travel into London for their care, whether from other parts of the city, the Home Counties or elsewhere in the UK. If you live some distance away, consider staying locally for the first night or two after surgery, so you are close by and can rest before travelling. Arrange for someone to accompany you, because you cannot drive after a general anaesthetic, and try to keep your first week free of long journeys and commitments. Patients from the North West may prefer to be seen in Manchester or Cheshire.
Follow-up arrangements
Splint and stitch removal usually takes place about a week after surgery at CLNQ, Battersea Reach. Further reviews follow over the first year to monitor breathing, healing and the gradual settling of swelling, with photographs to compare progress. For patients who live further away, the timing of follow-up visits can be discussed in advance so that appointments fit around travel. Routine follow-up is included in the surgical fee, and you can contact the team between appointments if you have any concerns.
Recovery
The nose will feel blocked and look swollen at first, and bruising around the eyes usually settles over about two weeks. Sleep with your head elevated, avoid blowing your nose, and keep strenuous exercise and contact sports on hold for around six weeks. Many people return to desk-based work after one to two weeks. The final shape can take a year or more to emerge. Contact the team the same day about heavy bleeding that does not stop with pressure, fever or spreading redness. Calf pain or one-sided leg swelling needs same-day GP or NHS 111 advice, and chest pain or breathlessness requires a 999 call.
