Our operations take place in Antalya Medical Park hospital, one of the largest hospital complexes in Turkey.
Rhinoplasty is not only an aesthetic surgery. Rhinoplasty surgery is an operation that changes the shape of the nose, but this shape change leads to many different effects on the nasal organ. For example; when the nose becomes smaller, there is a situation in which the structures inside it remain large. Therefore, these structures need to be brought to appropriate dimensions. Secondly, the middle wall of the nose takes the proper shape. Another important point is the middle roof of the nose. Because this region is where the ceiling airflow is controlled. In summary, rhinoplasty is not just a plastic surgery. It also aims to relieve nasal breathing.
During the preparation phase for rhinoplasty, patients experience a decision-making process. In this process, the patient is talked to at length and their wishes and expectations are tried to be understood. All parts of the nose are examined and different photographs are taken from at least seven angles. After examining these images with the patient and deciding that the patient's expectations are realistic, the risks, benefits and what to pay attention to are discussed. In addition, the patient is given a set of forms to read and fill in. If necessary, a second interview is held with the patient to get more information and consultation before the decision is made. After the consultation, the preparation phase of the surgery is completed.
Rhinoplasty surgery takes around 3-4 hours. In order to achieve the best result, even longer operations can be performed. Regardless of the duration, patient health is prioritized and all risks are tried to be eliminated. Nose surgery is a very fine job and requires hours of effort in a small area.
Open rhinoplasty surgery is generally preferred. Rhinoplasty surgery is actually to make a brand new nose. While this new nose is being made, the structures in the old nose are inevitably disrupted and all balances are turned upside down. However, while these procedures are being performed, it is realized that a new nose will be made intact. Open rhinoplasty is the most effective technique that allows the surgical field to be mastered in the best way and to be sure of the result.
Open rhinoplasty is one of the two main approaches in rhinoplasty. The main feature of open rhinoplasty is that the desired procedures can be performed easily while opening the tip of the nose. Since this cannot be achieved in any other technique, open rhinoplasty is preferred.
Closed rhinoplasty is a type of surgery that is performed completely from the inside of the nose and does not leave any scars anywhere visible from the outside. The main difference between open and closed operations is the scar on the outside of the nose. When closed rhinoplasty is performed, these scars remain on the inside and are not noticeable from the outside. In this operation, while the upper and middle parts are easy to operate, it can be more difficult in the lower part. Therefore, it is used in more limited places. Since the surgical area is more limited, the result may be less satisfactory. For this reason, I prefer open rhinoplasty operation.
Based on my experience so far, I can say that the psychology of the person after rhinoplasty is great! If the person knows what they want and has achieved what they want, it means that a good result has been achieved. Physicians strive for people with realistic expectations from the beginning of the operation to achieve the desired result. After this aesthetic success is achieved, positive differences begin to be seen. Patients start to look at themselves differently, their self-confidence is restored.
Rhinoplasty can be performed on patients who have aesthetic concerns, those who have functional disorders with aesthetics and those who have functional problems.
Although rhinoplasty surgery is performed very frequently, it is not preferred for adolescents who have not completed their development. Even if surgery is performed at a young age for disorders in nasal functions, it is preferred to wait until the age of 18 for surgeries performed for aesthetic purposes.
Rhinoplasty is one of the most preferred aesthetic operations in recent times. Although nose aesthetics are now easy operations that can be discharged on the same day, there are some situations that should be considered after the operation. Patients are discharged after 6 to 7 hours after the nose operation. Patients with rhinoplasty should take precautions such as paying utmost attention to their nutrition, not smoking, and protecting their nose against impacts.
The recovery period of patients who have undergone a nose operation may vary from person to person. It can vary within a week to 2 months after the nose operation. The full fit of the aesthetic nose varies between 6 months and 1 year.
