Such an operation carries risks.
Not because it's a complicated procedure, but primarily because of the aftercare. Here's the most important information:
Nasal tampon at least 2 days
Do not bend down (approx. 4-6 weeks optimal)
no sport for 6 weeks
The before/after effect of this surgery is often impressive, as the patient's entire face and thus her appearance are transformed. In many cases, easier and more effective breathing is a great positive aspect.
Healing and results
Rhinoplasty is a well-tolerated operation, and recovery is largely uneventful.
Immediately after a rhinoplasty, patients may experience swelling, nasal pain, or headaches for a short time.
Some swelling, bruising, bleeding, or blockage may also occur.
The dressing and stitches are removed after 5-7 days.
At this time, better breathing and better sleep are expected.
Our surgeons will prescribe pain medication along with instructions to help during the healing process.
Most patients can return to work within a week.
To reduce bleeding and swelling, the head should be elevated. A splint is placed on the nose for protection and support.
It is recommended to use ice packs for 48 hours to stop swelling, take baths instead of showers, eat foods rich in fiber, and avoid extreme facial expressions.
It is recommended not to exercise for 3 to 6 weeks after the procedure.
Most patients should be able to exercise after one month. Most of your results should be visible in 3-4 weeks. Your nose will continue to change for 3 months. The swelling will gradually subside over these 3-4 months.
Within one year you can see the full results of the nose surgery.
