Rhinoplasty in Barcelona
What it is, the types, what it costs and how to choose a surgeon for nose surgery in Barcelona with confidence.
Rhinoplasty is the surgery that brings the shape and size of the nose into harmony with the rest of the face and, where needed, also corrects breathing. In Barcelona, Dr. José Mª Guilemany performs it with ultrasonic technique, always combining aesthetics and function to achieve natural, lasting results. All the details are on our rhinoplasty in Barcelona page.
What is rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty is surgery that modifies the bone and cartilage of the nose to improve its appearance, its proportion with the face or its breathing function. It can be aesthetic, functional or both. Modern techniques are not just about "removing" tissue: the structure is reinforced and rebuilt so the result is stable and breathing does not get worse.
Types of rhinoplasty we perform in Barcelona
- Primary rhinoplasty: the first nose surgery, to change shape, size and, if needed, breathing.
- Secondary rhinoplasty: corrects the results of a previous operation; technically more complex.
- Ultrasonic rhinoplasty: uses ultrasound to sculpt the bone precisely, with less bruising and a faster recovery.
- Nasal reconstruction: restores shape and function after trauma, cancer treatment or malformations.
How much does a rhinoplasty cost in Barcelona?
The price of a rhinoplasty depends on each case: a straightforward primary surgery is not the same as a revision rhinoplasty or a reconstruction with a rib cartilage graft. The best way to know the real cost is a first consultation where your nose and your goals are studied. We also offer tailored financing so that cost is not a barrier.
How to choose a rhinoplasty surgeon
The nose is the most demanding facial surgery: it brings aesthetics and function together within millimetres. When choosing a surgeon, look at their specific experience with the nose, their real cases and the technique they use. Dr. Guilemany brings more than 25 years of experience and over 3,000 rhinoplasty procedures, with a 5★ rating on Doctoralia and TopDoctors, ultrasonic technique and, in most cases, no nasal packing.

Frequently asked questions
Does rhinoplasty leave visible scars?
In most cases the incisions are internal or very small, at the base of the nose (the columella), so they are camouflaged and practically invisible.
Can aesthetics and breathing be improved at the same time?
Yes. In a single operation (septorhinoplasty) a deviated septum can be corrected and, at the same time, the shape of the nose improved.
How long does recovery take?
The splint is removed after a week and social life usually resumes within 1-2 weeks. We go into detail in rhinoplasty recovery.
Is ultrasonic rhinoplasty painful?
It is usually a surgery with little pain. Recovery involves more of a feeling of pressure than pain, and the ultrasonic technique reduces bruising and swelling.
