Rhinoplasty (nose job)

Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular types of plastic surgery today. It is used both for the treatment of various defects and for aesthetic purposes. With this operation, you can completely change the size and shape of the nose or its individual parts (for example, tip, septum, hump, etc.).

Rhinoplasty is also often used to correct congenital or acquired deformities of the nasal region.

In our clinic, it is possible to carry out combinations of rhinoplasty surgery: aesthetic nose correction with restoration of nasal breathing. A whole team of specialists works on the shape, anatomy of the nose and skin reconstruction after rhinoplasty.

NDICATIONS FOR NOSE PLASTIC SURGERY

Correction of the nose is carried out most often for aesthetic reasons with:

• the presence of a hump;
• thickening of the tip of the nose;
• dilated nostrils;
• curvature of the nasal septum;
• disproportionate size of the nose;
• eagle beak effect;
• difficulty breathing.

RHINOPLASTY SURGERY

THE OPERATING PERIOD IN THE CLINIC

Rhinoplasty is done under general anesthesia and this operation lasts about 1-2 hours. Before the operation, it is imperative to conduct the following studies:

• general blood analysis;
• general urine analysis;
• blood chemistry;
• testing for HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B and C;
• blood clotting study;
• FLG;

 Attention! Additionally, consultation with an anesthesiologist and a therapist is required.

The technique of rhinoplasty, depending on the problem, is selected by a plastic surgeon. The operation is usually performed using two methods: open (a small incision under the nose) and closed (an incision on the inside of the nostrils).

If the patient has functional breathing disorders, then the operation is performed in conjunction with an otolaryngologist surgeon. 

The advantage of our clinic is that rehabilitation measures are performed during the operation.

POSTOPERATIVE PERIOD

Within 24 hours after the operation, the patient must be in the hospital under the supervision of doctors, after which he is discharged. To obtain a good result, you must strictly follow all the prescribed doctor's prescriptions and undergo a course of rehabilitation therapy.

Includes:

• physiotherapy procedures (microcurrent therapy "Beautytek"),
• low-frequency magnetotherapy, low-intensity laser therapy,
• dermal electromycrolifting (therapeutic electrostatic massage),
• local cryotherapy
• and other procedures.

Rhinoplasty (nose job)

Rhinoplasty (nose job) - changing the shape of the nose. This operation is one of the most common in plastic surgery today . Rhinoplasty is used to change the size or shape of the nose, nostrils, or the angle between the tip of the nose and the upper lip. In addition, rhinoplasty is used if necessary to correct congenital defects or injuries of the nose, as well as to eliminate chronic respiratory problems.

OPERATION PRINCIPLE

Our doctors are proficient in the methods of both open and closed rhinoplasty. Both methods give excellent results and are used depending on the structure of the nose and the specifics of the operation itself. During a closed rhinoplasty procedure, the doctor makes small incisions inside the nostrils to gain access to bone and cartilage. Using miniature surgical instruments, the physician achieves the desired shape of the nose by removing or adding bone, cartilage and tissue.

During an open rhinoplasty procedure, a plastic surgeon makes small incisions inside each nostril. Unlike closed rhinoplasty, these incisions allow the doctor to properly separate the anatomical components of the nose, which allows for complete visualization of the nose. After that, the plastic surgeon can examine the frame of the nose and carry out precise correction of its shape and structure.

RESHAPING THE TIP OF THE NOSE

In patients with a wide nose tip, the so-called "potato" nose, the doctor may remove part of the pterygoid cartilage. Depending on the structure of the nose and the necessary intervention, the doctor uses stitches to tilt or pull the cartilage of the wings inward, achieving a narrow tip of the nose, or other correction. Open plastic surgery gives the doctor the greatest opportunity for a better rhinoplasty of the tip of the nose.

CORRECTING THE HUMP OF THE NOSE

Very often rhinoplasty is resorted to with correcting the hump of the nose. The hump consists mainly of cartilage and bone tissue. In order to remove it, the doctor uses an osteotome, an instrument that makes the bones of the nose more mobile. With the help of an osteotome, the doctor removes areas of cartilage and bone tissue. The result can be a so-called open vault - that is, an open space between the bones of the nose. The doctor grinds the edges of the bones with a fine surgical rasp, and performs an osteotomy to close the open fornix, repositioning the bones.

CLOSING THE INCISIONS

At the end of the operation, the incisions inside are usually closed with absorbable sutures. The surgeon usually inserts airway tampons into the nostrils, which are removed the day after surgery. The outside of the nose is closed with a sterile plaster. If the bones of the nose were broken during the procedure, a plaster cast will be applied. The use of splints and tampons promotes tissue healing and retention of a new shape.

RECOVERY AFTER RHINOPLASTY

As with any surgery, you will experience some soreness, bruising, and swelling, especially in the upper face and around the eyes. These symptoms will disappear within the first days after surgery. It can take five to seven days before stitches, dressings and plaster are removed. While the main edema subsides in a few weeks, residual edema may persist for several months.
