What Causes Rhinophyma?

Rhinophyma is a subtype of rosacea marked by gradual thickening of the skin and enlargement of oil glands on the nose. While it was once thought to be linked to alcohol, we now know it results from chronic inflammation, vascular changes, and sebaceous hyperplasia. Left untreated, the condition can progress, leading to disfigurement.

Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent progression. Our dermatologists assess severity and customise a treatment plan to address both cosmetic and medical concerns.

Degrees of Rhinophyma We Treat

Rhinophyma presents in stages. We tailor each treatment approach accordingly:

Mild

Subtle thickening, enlarged pores, early gland hypertrophy.

Moderate

Visible bulbous shape, coarse texture, uneven surface.

Severe

Marked disfigurement, obstructed nasal airflow, prominent nodular tissue.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best treatment for rhinophyma?

CO2 laser resurfacing is one of the most effective and precise treatments, especially when performed by a dermatologist experienced in rhinophyma.

Will I need surgery?

Not always. Many cases can be managed with laser and radiofrequency techniques. Severe cases may require surgical excision or combination therapy.

Is rhinophyma painful to treat?

Treatments are performed under local anaesthetic or sedation for maximum comfort. Recovery is typically well-tolerated with minimal pain.

How long is recovery?

Most patients recover within 7–10 days following laser treatment. We provide detailed aftercare and support throughout your healing journey.

Will the rhinophyma come back?

With proper management, recurrence is uncommon. Ongoing rosacea treatment and skin maintenance are essential to reduce long-term risk.
