Rhinoplasty (Nose aesthetics) is a surgical procedure performed to eliminate congenital or acquired aesthetic problems, to give the nose a more aesthetic appearance and to eliminate breathing problems.
Rhinoplasty surgeries usually last 2-3 hours and patients are usually hospitalized for one night. After surgery, patients can return to their daily lives within 7-10 days.
Piezorhinoplasty technique is used when rhinoplasty surgeries are performed in our clinic. The advantage of the Piezo technique is that swelling and bruising are seen at a minimum level in patients after surgery. In addition to providing an aesthetic appearance to our patients in our surgeries, we also try to do our best in a functional sense.
Frequently asked questions about rhinoplasty
How many hours does the surgery take?
Rhinoplasty surgeries take an average of 2-3 hours. However, the surgery time may be shorter or longer depending on factors such as skin thickness and cartilage structure.
Do I need to stay in hospital?
Considering the general condition of the patient after the surgery, we can discharge the patient on the same day, but most of the time we stay in the hospital for one night.
At what age can rhinoplasty surgery be performed?
In order for rhinoplasty surgery to be performed, cartilage and bone development must be completed. For this reason, we can perform rhinoplasty surgeries starting from the age of 16 for girls and from the age of 17 for boys, by working together with families and evaluating the condition of the patients.
When can we return to daily life?
You can return to your daily life starting from the 7th day after rhinoplasty surgery. We recommend that you spend this time resting.
Will there be bruising or swelling after the surgery?
We use the piezo (ultrasonic) method in our surgeries. With this method, our patients generally do not experience any swelling or bruising. Swelling and bruising, which are rarely seen, resolve rapidly from the 3rd day.
Will there be any scars after the surgery?
We prefer the open method in nose aesthetic surgeries. We make a small incision at the bottom of the nose. After the surgery, this incision heals in a way that is not noticeable unless looked at carefully.
