Rhinophyma 

What is Rhinophyma?

Rhinophyma is a progressive thickening of the skin of the nose, leading to enlargement, irregular texture and a bulbous appearance. It is considered a subtype of rosacea and is more common in men, though the exact cause is not fully understood.

Our Approach

Ablative laser resurfacing, using technology such as Contour TRL, can precisely remove excess thickened tissue to reshape and smooth the contour of the nose. Following an assessment of the severity and pattern of your rhinophyma, Dr Gupta will discuss whether laser resurfacing is an appropriate option for you, and what outcome you might reasonably expect
