RHINOPLASTY
In rhinoplasty surgery, the goal is not only aesthetic beauty. It is a surgical operation that eliminates blockages caused by structural problems inside the nose and also allows the patient to breathe more comfortably.
WHO CAN HAVE RHINOPLASTY?
– Those whose nose is too big or small compared to the face,
– Those with a very wide nose when viewed from the front,
-Those with a low nose tip,
-Those with a wide and thick nose tip,
-Those whose nostrils are wider than usual,
– Those with an asymmetric appearance in the nose due to any accident,
– Those with nasal congestion that prevents breathing and anyone who has completed bone development
WHAT IS THE SUCCESS CRITERION IN RHINOPLASTY?
Achieving a result with a natural appearance on the face indicates that rhinoplasty surgery is successful.
IS THERE ANY SCAR LEFT AFTER RHINOPLASTY?
The scar is undetectable. Because in an operation to improve the appearance of the nose, most of the incisions are stored in areas inside the nose that are not visible to the eye.
HOW IS RHINOPLASTY PERFORMED?
Nose surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia.
The operation begins mostly with an incision made under the nose. Then the belt is taken, the cartilage is shaped and cartilage patches are made in the necessary areas.
The tip of the nose is shaped and thinned.
By reshaping the nasal bones, the roof of the nose is closed, the base is narrowed.
If necessary, the nasal wings are narrowed.
If there are any bone or cartilage curvatures that block the patient’s airway are removed during surgery.
The middle roof of the nose is supported for the patient to breathe comfortably. The inner nose cap is repaired.
If the flesh of the nose is large, it is reduced with the help of radiofrequency or surgically.
AESTHETIC FACT!
Every day, our nose filters 18 thousand – 20 thousand liters of air.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER RHINOPLASTY?
After the operation, which lasts an average of 2 hours, tampons are placed in the nostrils.
Although it is rarely, swelling and bruising can be seen around the eye.
With tampons taken after 5 days, the patient breathes comfortably.
After 5 days, the patient returns to his normal life with the splint taken.
After surgery, the swelling that occurs returns to its former state within 1-2 months.
For four weeks after surgery, avoid sunlight and any risk factors that may injure the nose.
A period of 6-12 months must pass for the nose to take its final shape.
The use of glasses should be done with tape to prevent the load on the nose.
AESTHETIC FIGURE: 1 TRILLION
The human nose is sensitive enough to distinguish exactly 1 trillion different odors. Because they do not use these features, they gradually vestigial over time.
WHAT IS SECONDARY RHINOPLASTY?
After rhinoplasty operations, the desired results may not be achieved for various reasons. For this reason, the repeated rhinoplasty operation is called Secondary Rhinoplasty. Revision surgeries can sometimes be a little more difficult than the first operation.
Mini-Rhinoplasty
Some patients do not have problems in the upper parts of the nose, but problems may occur in the lower or middle parts. In cases where the nasal tip is wide, asymmetric, the nasal tip cartilage stands apart from each other, or in the curvature of the nasal tip, it is possible to reach a solution in 10-15 minutes with the application of Mini-Rhinoplasty.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER MINI-RHINOPLASTY?
After Mini-Rhinoplasty surgery, plaster and splints are used in the necessary cases. It is removed at the end of 5 days.
The patient can return to their daily activities the next day.
After 1 month, the nose becomes compatible with the face.
