functional nose surgery Explanation: I don't find the "exact" translation term but this makes sense to me...."functional nose surgery"..versus purely "aesthetic" nose surgery. Hope this helps:-) terry Oxford Superlex + Exp. |

functional rhinoplasty (or nasal surgery) Explanation: The medical term for "cirujía de la nariz" is "rhinoplasty" or "nasal surgery" For example: Functional rhinoplasty is aimed at improving the physiology of the nose by modifying its malpositioned anatomical structures to relieve a nasal obstruction. Reconstructive rhinoplasty is aimed at correcting congenital or traumatic malformation of the nose. Aesthetic rhinoplasty is aimed at modifying the shape of the nose in order to make it more pleasing.
