Rhinoplasty Primer

Why is Primary Rhinoplasty Performed?

If there are aesthetic or functional problems in the natural nose structure,

If there is a hump, curvature or asymmetry on the bridge of the nose,

If the tip of the nose is low or wide,

If you experience breathing problems,

If the nostrils are disproportionate and facial harmony is desired.

Primary Rhinoplasty Process

Before this surgery, a detailed interview is conducted with the patient to evaluate the facial structure and nasal anatomy. The surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia and can take 2-3 hours. It can be performed using an open or closed technique.

Open Rhinoplasty: A small incision is made to provide full access to the nasal structure. It is preferred in cases where detailed intervention is required.

Closed Rhinoplasty: This is a method performed by making an incision inside the nose. It leaves fewer scars and the healing process is fast.

Recovery Process After Primary Rhinoplasty

After the surgery, slight swelling and bruising may occur in the nose, but this will subside within a few weeks.

A splint is used to protect the nose for the first week.

Patients can usually return to their daily lives within 7-10 days.

It may take a few months for the final results to become fully evident.
