Rhinoplasty Testimonial

International Clients:

Am I the ideal Candidate For Rhinoplasty Treatment?

  • The right person for rhinoplasty is someone who is unhappy with the appearance of their nose and has specific concerns, such as correcting a nasal hump, reshaping the nasal tip, or improving overall symmetry.
  • Also, the individual should be healthy, not smoking, and have realistic expectations about procedure outcomes.

What can be Corrected in rhinoplasty Surgery?

Patients choose rhinoplasty for a variety of concerns, including:

  • Nasal tip reshaping (bulbous, drooping, or upturned tip)
  • Dorsal hump or flat nasal bridge
  • Nostril asymmetry or flaring
  • Over- or under-projected nose
  • Deviated septum or airway obstruction

🩺 What to Expect During a Rhinoplasty Procedure ?

🧘‍♂ 1. Anesthesia Administration
•Usually general anesthesia is given (you’ll be asleep and pain-free).
•In some minor cases, local anesthesia with sedation may be used.
•The anesthesiologist monitors your vitals throughout the procedure.
 
🏥 2. Incision Type
 
The surgeon will choose between two main types of incisions:
 
🔹 Closed Rhinoplasty:
•All incisions made inside the nostrils
•No external scar
•Preferred for minor reshaping
 
🔹 Open Rhinoplasty:
•A small incision made across the columella (the tissue between the nostrils)
•Gives better visibility and control
•Ideal for major reshaping or revisions
 
 
✂ 3. Reshaping the Nose Structure
 
Depending on the patient’s goals:
 
➤ Bone Work:
•The nasal bones may be shaved down, fractured (osteotomy) and repositioned to improve the profile or correct a crooked nose.
 
➤ Cartilage Work:
•Cartilage from the septum, ear, or rib may be:
•Removed, reshaped, or added for tip refinement, nasal length, or bridge augmentation.
 
➤ Septoplasty (if needed):
•If breathing issues are present, the deviated septum may be straightened.
 
👃 4. Correcting the Nasal Tip
•Tip refinement is done using:
•Sutures
•Cartilage grafts
•Shaving of excess tissue
•Ensures a natural, symmetric nasal tip.
 
🪡 5. Closing the Incisions
•Internal stitches are absorbable
•External stitches (in open rhinoplasty) are removed in 5–7 days
•Splints may be placed inside the nose and a nasal cast outside to maintain shape
 
⏳ 6. Duration
•The surgery typically lasts 1.5 to 4 hours, depending on complexity.
•You’ll be in the recovery room for 1–2 hours before discharge (if day-care).
 
✅ 7. Immediate Post-Op
•A nasal splint or cast is applied to protect the new structure.
•Nasal packing may be used for 1–2 days.
•Swelling and mild bleeding are expected.
