Rhinoplasty items

There are two types of rhinoplasty techniques: closed and open.

Closed Rhinoplasty Approach: When the problem is primarily centered on the back of the nose, and the acronym requires a small adjustment, this is the technique to use. More incisions are usually made with this method, but they are hidden inside the nostrils and are not visible.

Open Rhinoplasty Procedure: This is a technique that allows for more surgical accuracy and is used when the nose needs to be changed. We can adjust the tip or curve of the nose, limit the entrance of the nostrils, change the angle between the nose and the upper lip, fix a congenital flaw or injury, and even cure some respiratory issues this way.

How long does the Surgery last?

The duration of the operation varies from 50 minutes to one and a half hours depending on the nature of the problem.

How does the patient feel right after?

The patient is not in any discomfort. In the first 24 hours, the only sensation he has is a little congested nose (bloating). Mild swelling or bruising around the eyes may also occur, which can be treated with cold compresses.

Is it necessary for the patient to stay in the hospital?

The patient is not required to remain in the clinic; he may go after 4-5 hours if the procedure is performed to the satisfaction of the doctor. If you need to spend the night at the clinic, it will only be for one night.

What’s the next step?

After a few hours, most patients are ready to get up and move around. Within 4-6 days, they will be able to resume their normal routine. Avoid excessive physical activity and exercise during this time to avoid overexertion and delay the recuperation process. In 2-4 days, the procedure will be fully healed.

At what age can the operation be performed?

This procedure can be performed on both young and old people. It can be done by women as early as the age of 16, and by men as early as the age of 18. Surgery is avoided in cases of severe respiratory problems, as well as diseases and congenital defects.

The goal of rhinoplasty is to create a more attractive nose that is balanced and symmetrical with the rest of the face.
