What is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to change the size, shape or angle of the nose, correct the nasal hump, narrow the nostrils or facilitate breathing. Suitable for both women and men, rhinoplasty allows the most appropriate nose shape to be created for the person's facial features.

Why is Rhinoplasty Performed?

For Aesthetic Purposes: It allows the nose to become more compatible with the facial features.

For Functional Purposes: Structural disorders such as septum deviation are corrected to eliminate respiratory problems.

Post-Traumatic: It corrects deformities resulting from accidents or impacts.

Congenital Anomalies: It corrects nasal deformities that occur from birth.

Rhinoplasty Techniques

Open Rhinoplasty: It is a technique used for more comprehensive corrections. It provides a better view of the nasal structure.

Closed Rhinoplasty: It is a method performed by making incisions inside the nose without leaving a scar.

Piezo Rhinoplasty: Minimizes bruising and swelling by shaping the bone with ultrasonic sound waves.

Recovery Process After Rhinoplasty

It is very important to follow the surgeon's recommendations and treatment after the surgery. There may be slight swelling and bruising on the nose and face, and pain,  but it usually decreases significantly within the first week.

It is recommended to sleep with the head slightly elevated in the first days.

Applying cold compresses helps minimize swelling.

Avoiding heavy exercises and impacts speeds up the recovery process.
