Summary:Objectives/Hypothesis To explore the natural history of nasal obstruction and cosmesis following rhinoplasty by utilizing the Standardized Cosmesis and Health Nasal Outcomes Survey (SCHNOS). Study Design Retrospective chart study. Methods This study was carried out at a tertiary referral center, preoperative and postoperative Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE), SCHNOS‐Obstruction (SCHNOS‐O), and SCHNOS‐Cosmesis (SCHNOS‐C) scores in patients who underwent rhinoplasty for functional, cosmetic, or both reasons from June 2017 to May 2019 were reviewed and analyzed. Postoperative intervals were defined as 12 months. Results A total of 302 patients (67% women), with a mean age (standard deviation [SD]) of 35 (13) years, who underwent rhinoplasty for functional (90, 30%), cosmetic (124, 41%), and combined functional and cosmetic (88, 29%) reasons, met inclusion criteria. The mean follow‐up period (SD, range) was 5 months (4.2 months, 13 days–1.8 years). Compared to the preoperative mean NOSE score, SCHNOS‐ O, and SCHNOS‐C scores, postoperative mean scores for the functional and combined subgroup were significantly lower (P
