It is a safe : Procedure as procedures go. But there are risks to any procedure which your surgeon is obligated to explain on the consent. Most are die to the anesthesia . If you want it. Have it from a surgeon you trust to produce the cosmetic results you are looking for

Rhinoplasty: There are risks and benefits to every procedure. Rhinoplasty is accomplished under sedation or light general anesthesia on an outpatient basis. It is a fairly age procedure!
