What is RHINOPLASTY: what are the benefits?

Surely you have heard of rhinoplasty at least once . This is because it is the most popular cosmetic surgery. An increasing number of people, in fact, decide every day to reshape their nose, in such a way as to make it more uniform, homogeneous and coherent with the rest of the face. But how much does a nose job in turkey cost? What are the risks? And what are the other important information to keep in mind? We will try to give an exhaustive answer to this series of questions.

First, what needs to be clarified is that we are talking about plastic surgery. This is nothing more than a branch of cosmetic surgery. With plastic surgery we can intervene, as the word says, surgically, to correct some defects of the body. Whoever works, therefore, is a real surgeon, a specialized doctor. From this point of view, it is important not to fall into the error of relying on questionable characters, who are not real doctors but in fact scammers.

Not only women do rhinoplasty

It should also be noted that rhinoplasty by no means an operation to which only women undergo. Many men decide to undergo rhinoplasty, even if there are substantial differences: usually, men tend to correct physical errors of the nose in relation to the hump (commonly called hump) or the drooping tip, but also of the nose generally “crooked ”(Which can lead to respiratory problems). It will be the same doctor, in any case, to foresee a series of examinations, such as the CT scan, to try to better understand the situation and plan the intervention in the best possible way.

Importance of medical examinations

All these medical visits before the operation are essential for the surgeon, so that he understands how to move and what type of work to do. He must understand, for example, the proportions of the face, the distance between nose-eyes-mouth-forehead, understand how much disproportion there is (for example, too large nostrils, marked hump and so on).

Another fundamental thing that perhaps not everyone knows is that those who can undergo plastic surgery, to be precise rhinoplasty , must surely be a subject who has reached eighteen years, therefore of age. This is because, regardless of the legal discourse, the nose needs to have reached full maturity: a work performed on a nose that can continue to change over the years can be useless if not deleterious. This is all information that the doctor himself will obviously illustrate to the person concerned .

In addition to this, the person who intends to undergo this surgery will also have to undergo other clinical tests. In addition, doctors usually advise a smoker not to smoke for a certain period prior to the operation.

Two types of intervention

When we talk about rhinoplasty, we generally speak of two different types of surgery: the first called “open”, the other “closed”. In the first case we proceed by making incisions, internal and external, to be precise on the skin of the columella (which separates the nostrils). This allows a very wide visibility of the entire structure of the nose itself. Closed rhinoplasty, on the other hand, develops with incisions inside the nose, therefore no external scars remain and post-operative swelling is very low. The latter a very high aesthetic performance, but it is still a more complicated operation, i.e. the doctor must be aware of all the precise steps in a very detailed way.

Regardless of the type of surgery chosen, the ultimate goal of the doctor is to create adequate proportions for the structure of the nose, both from a bone and cartilage point of view. This is why we proceed, before the operation itself, a real adequate, planned check of everything concerning the face in general. All distances, eyes-forehead, mouth-chin, as we have previously clarified.

Post operative

The postoperative course is not so traumatic, on the contrary. The doctor applies braces to the nostrils to try to keep them open to help with breathing. A brace also placed on the upper part of the nose, to make all the tissues rearrange. This rigid brace usually worn for a couple of weeks.
