Nose Job - Rhinoplasty

An aesthetic operation for correcting the unwanted curves or shape of the nose, which is caused by an anatomical deformation or due to reasons such as falling, an accident, a fight, this operation is called nose aesthetic. The person might sometimes face problems in breathing due to the deformations that occur in this area. Nose aesthetics opertion is an exclusive operation for each person so it is performed by considering the face, curvature and deformation of the person. As bone growth and cartilage texture are taken into consideration, it is not recommended for children under 18 years old.

Open and closed approach techniques of nose aesthetic operation are applied.

The success rate of both techniques is proportional to the experience of the doctor and his understanding of the aesthetic perspective.

In the open nose aesthetic procedure, the surgeon is fully aware of the nasal anatomy.

Aesthetic and functional improvements are applied in detail. Open nose surgery is effective because it is a common practice. It also provides great facilitie for the doctor.

It is done without making a cut. The surgeon straightens the nose and back with the help of rasps and cuts. Internal sewing is not performed after operation.

It is important for the patient to meet with the surgeon in person before the operation.

The aesthetic surgeon must assess the patient’s wishes and show the patient the expected results on the computer to see whether or not it suits the face of the person. The psychological problem does not arise in the patient who sees the results before hand.

After a nose job, people usually wear a nasal splint for the first week. You can expect swelling and some bruising around the eyes after surgery that will begin to improve after the third day. It can, though, last up to two weeks.

Expect your nose to have a little swelling, which probably only you and your surgeon will notice. This will go away over the next six months. The final shape of your nose will be apparent after it has completely healed.

You should avoid strenuous activity for three to six weeks after surgery. You may return to your social activities as soon as within two to three weeks without any recognizable signs that you had a procedure done.

The success of the nose aesthetic surgery is related to the experience and hand skill of the surgeon performing the operation. The more successful the surgeon is, the less likely it is to have complications after the operation. At some times there may be some risks. Risks such as infection formation, anesthesia-induced risks, nasal bleeding, nasal vascularization may occur.

Because nose asthetic surgery is a permanent operation, those who want to have surgery should make the right decisions. Nose surgery is applied to fully developed noses. For this reason, it’s not recommended for people under the age of 18. Risks may be seen in people under the age of 18 because nose development processes have not yet been completed. When aesthetic operation is performed at a young age,  a deformity might ocur later on.

Is there any risk of nose tip drop?
The risk of falling nose tip varies from person to person. This situation may increase in comparision to aging. If the nose surgery is performed improperly or if proper support is not provided during operation, the nose tip may fall.
