It is a little frequent ailment that occurs mainly in men of more than 40 years of age and it consists in the hypertrophy of the nose sebaceous glands, forming nodular eritematose masses that result in an exaggerated growth of this facial area. Rhinophyma is the slowest and most advanced manifestation of the rosacea. 

The best known treatment for Rhinophyma  is a surgical remaking of the nose, through laser, scalpel or dermabrasion.

Rhynophyma can be corrected by surgery but the condition can come back again. Its adequate medical and aesthetic treatment is important because the change in appearance can cause an emotional suffering in the patient.
