After getting her nose broken four times, Cameron Diaz says that her planned surgery on her nose is to help her breathe better. And even though I enjoy being snarky and accusing her of making up the medical drama as an excuse to get her nose done, after reading this quote of hers, I’m starting to wonder how she breathes at all.
She explains, “My ear, nose and throat doctor said nostrils only work one at a time, I think. I only have one that works at any point, so when it’s off, the other one doesn’t come on. They’re going to swipe it through. It’s not cosmetic, it’s just for breathing purposes. Half the oxygen isn’t working for me any longer. There are moments where I can’t remember things and I’m going to blame it on lack of oxygen. They’re just going to go in and fix the bones. The septum’s kind of like a derailed train; it kind of piles up on itself a few times. It’s not cosmetic, it’s purely medical.”
She sounds like she’s got the nose of an Ultimate Fighting Champion. You know the whole reason she and Justin haven’t yet married is because he’s probably like, “Baby, the day I can finally get a good night’s sleep with you in the bed with me, is the day I propose. Aight?”

Nostrils usually work “only one at a time” when you have a straw stuck up one of them…

Rhinoplasty Dr. Erol, who also serves as chief of the plastic and reconstructive surgery department of American Hospital in Istanbul, notes that among the 3,800 rhinoplasties he’s performed in the past 14 years, 2,200 involved tip rhinoplasty for broad noses. He says the new technique uses a vestibular approach during rhinoplasty.
How it’s done
“After the dorsal, lateral and septal work is completed, defatting of the tip region is performed,” Dr. Erol says.
“Through a 4 mm longitudinal incision on the lateral side of the columella, a pocket is created inside of the crura, from the base to the tip, using blunt-tip scissors. In select cases, such as those with a short columella and flaring nostril, the alar base is approximated using subcuticular Ethilon sutures,” he explains.
Then, he says, harvested cartilage is diced in 0.5 mm pieces. This is most effectively accomplished with the use of a number 11 blade wrapped with Surgicel (Ethicon) molded into cylindrical form, inserted into the columella and pushed up to the tip region.
“When this is accomplished, a strut of cartilage is inserted into the columella below the diced cartilage mass,” he says. “After the mucosal stitches are complete, the tip is externally molded between the fingers so as to achieve the desired form.”
