Where Mr Tim Biggs Performs Rhinoplasty and Nasal Surgery in Hampshire – Adnova Clinic and Medicana Winchester

Patients often ask where I see patients and where different types of nasal surgery take place. I work across two main private hospitals in Hampshire — Adnova Clinic in Fareham and Medicana Winchester — and each hospital is used for different types of nasal surgery.

Understanding which hospital is used for which procedure helps patients understand the treatment pathway for both breathing problems and cosmetic rhinoplasty.

Adnova Clinic, Fareham – Specialist Rhinoplasty and Septorhinoplasty

Adnova Clinic is where I perform cosmetic rhinoplasty, functional septorhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty and complex nasal reconstruction.

This is a specialist day-case surgical clinic designed specifically for cosmetic and facial surgery, with modern theatres and advanced technology.

Procedures performed at Adnova include:

• Cosmetic rhinoplasty

• Functional septorhinoplasty

• Revision rhinoplasty

• Nasal valve reconstruction

• Donor rib cartilage reconstruction

• Fascia grafting

• Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty

• Piezo ultrasonic rhinoplasty

Adnova is used for structural nasal surgery, where both the appearance and breathing are being addressed.

Most patients who require rhinoplasty surgery will have their procedure here.

Medicana Winchester – Septoplasty, Turbinoplasty and Sinus Surgery

At Medicana Winchester Hospital, I primarily perform functional nasal surgery for breathing problems, including:

• Septoplasty

• Septoplasty with turbinate reduction

• Nasal airway surgery

• Sinus surgery

• CT-based assessment and treatment planning

This hospital is typically used for patients whose main problem is nasal obstruction and breathing, rather than cosmetic concerns.

Some patients seen at Medicana for breathing problems are later referred to Adnova if they require functional septorhinoplasty to correct structural problems affecting both breathing and the external shape of the nose.
