How is Rhinoplasty Procedure Done?
A rhinoplasty procedure is done to improve the function of the nose and its appearance. A surgeon will reduce or increase the size of the nose, alter its shape, rebuild a drooping tip, and fix a deviated septum.
Rhinoplasty surgery is done to improve the shape, size and/or structure of a person’s nose. This surgical procedure can also be used to repair defects from previous trauma or injury. For example, if a patient has had an accident and the bones in their jaw have been misaligned, this surgery can be used to help save the jaw. This procedure has been used successfully in thousands of patients and could be a game-changer for many people looking to get back to their lives without the pain and the high costs of surgery.
What is a Typical Rhinoplasty Recovery Process?
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that changes the shape or size of the nose. It is performed to improve breathing, appearance, and function of the nose. Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia, which means you will be asleep during the surgery. You will need someone to drive you home after surgery.
The typical post-op instructions are:
Do not blow your nose for at least 10 days after surgery
Do not wear makeup or tight headgear for at least 10 days after surgery
Do not drink alcohol for at least 10 days after surgery
Avoid contact sports for at least 4 weeks after surgery
How Long Does the Average Rhinoplasty Recovery Take?
Recovery time for rhinoplasty varies from person to person, but typically people will be able to resume their normal activities about two weeks after surgery. If a person has a job where they spend the majority of their time outdoors, they may need to wait up to one or two months before returning. The average rhinoplasty recovery is about two weeks. It can take anywhere from six weeks up to a year for rhinoplasty recovery. The main thing you’ll have to worry about is swelling, which should go back down in about two weeks. Drink plenty of fluids and rest.
