Rhinoplasty

Procedure Overview:

1. Consultation:
   The surgeon evaluates the patient’s nasal anatomy, discusses goals, and outlines the surgical plan.
2. Anesthesia:
   Rhinoplasty is performed under either local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the procedure’s complexity and patient preference.
3. Incisions:
   Incisions are made inside the nostrils (closed rhinoplasty) or across the columella (open rhinoplasty) to access and reshape nasal structures.
4. Nasal Reshaping:
   The surgeon modifies nasal bones, cartilage, and tissue to achieve desired aesthetic or functional outcomes, such as reducing a dorsal hump or refining nasal tip.
5. Incision Closure:
   Once modifications are made, incisions are carefully closed,and nasal packing or splints may be used to support the newly shaped nose during initial healing.
6. Recovery and Follow-Up:
   Patients can expect swelling, bruising, and discomfort post-surgery, which gradually diminishes over several weeks. Follow-up appointments allow the surgeon to monitor healing progress and
   address any concerns.

Recovery Period:
Nose surgery typically takes 1 to 3 hours, with patients usually discharged on the same or next day. Stitches are removed after 5 days, and a splint is worn for at least 5 days to support the nose. Patients can resume work within 7 days and engage in strenuous activities after 3 months.

Risks Associated with Rhinoplasty:
While rare, potential risks include difficulty breathing, numbness or tingling, pain, infection, bleeding, and scarring. Choosing an experienced cosmetic surgeon minimizes these risks and ensures optimal results.

Benefits of Nose Surgery:
