FAQs About a Rhinoplasty
In our practice, we recommend quitting smoking at least seven days before surgery and not smoking for at least two weeks after surgery. In smokers, recovery is delayed after surgery, bruises and edema are more common, and it becomes difficult to maintain the ideal shape of the nose.
We recommend againts wearing glasses for at least three months after rhinoplasty. Although this period is stated as “six months” in classical books, it has gradually shortened with the new nasal ridge protective rhinoplasty techniques used today.
After rhinoplasty, we recommend that the patient get up quickly and become active at home. The patient will need to wait for a period of 5-7 days for the out-of-home walks to begin. It is necessary to wait at least three weeks for the start of sportive physical activities and 3 months for heavy sports.
After about the tenth day after rhinoplasty, you can return to your sexual life.
There is no such thing as the best season for undergoing nose aesthetic surgeries, but there are some points to be considered in surgeries performed in the summer season:
- Sunlight can adversely affect wound healing in summer. Darkening of the incision line may be observed in patients who underwent rhinoplasty with vascularization on the back of the nose or open technique. For this reason, it is recommended to apply sunscreens with a factor of 50 protection especially produced for use in the face for at least three months after the surgery.
- Sunglasses should not be used for at least three months after surgery.
- You should not enter in the sea or the pool for three weeks after the operation
After rhinoplasty, patient check-ups are carried out in the 1st week, 2nd week, 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month and 1st year, postoperatively.
We carry out check-ups of our patients coming from abroad and distant cities at postoperative 1st week, 6th month and 1st year over FaceTime or Skype applications.
Skin thickness is one of the most effective factors on postoperative recovery. In patients with thick skin, it is difficult for the newly formed nasal skeleton to integrate with the skin on it. This situation can be likened to covering a thick veil over the newly created nose shape. The thick cover will hide the fine lines of the structure underneath, causing a rough appearance.
The following points should be considered before and after surgery in patients with thick skin
- Patients with thick skin may be prescribed skin-thinning medications made from vitamin A derivatives before surgery. It is worth mentioning a very important issue regarding the use of these drugs. The drugs in question should be discontinued before the operation for the duration of their previous use. For example, after three months of use of skin thinning drugs, it is appropriate to spend at least a three-month drug-free period and to plan rhinoplasty after this drug-free period..
- In patients with thick skin, the massage, which is normally applied for three weeks after the surgery, will be continued with a stronger intensity and for a much longer time.
- Since the postoperative swelling and edema in patients with thick skin have a much greater negative effect on the outcome of the surgery, it may be necessary to use anti-edematous drugs and additional supportive treatments.
After radical septoplasty surgeries performed in previous years, the cartilages removed from the nose were delivered to the patients and their relatives in a container. It was better understood in the following years how much damage this procedure made years ago caused to the nose. These noses collapsed over time and revision surgery was required.
In the aesthetic nose surgeries performed in these years, the nasal cartilages were not preserved, but were removed as much as possible with the same logic. This situation has caused drooping of the tip of the nose or collapse of the ridge of the nose called “Saddle Nose” in thousands of patients who have undergone surgery in the past years. Today, drooping of the nose tip has become a very rare problem with new nasal surgery approaches in which nasal cartilages and even ligaments are preserved.
