Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty permanently alters the bone and cartilage structures inside the nose, reshaping it to improve its appearance and function. It is a safe and reliable procedure that has been popular for many years. The procedure is often used to reshape the nose in proportion to the face without causing breathing problems or any other issues. In some cases, patients have further procedures called Revision Rhinoplasties to enhance or alter the effects of the initial procedure.
Patients who undergo with these procedures at THST hospitals report extremely high levels of satisfaction with the results in terms of appearance and function.
Treatment and Recovery Process
Before this procedure is carried out, the surgeon will assess the patient and discuss their treatment options. It is important for the patient and surgeon to establish clear objectives and expectations. Rhinoplasty is a significant procedure. There may also be swelling of the nose for some time after the procedure, so it is important that the patient fully understands the treatment and recovery processes.
Revision Rhinoplasty
To achieve success with the revision rhinoplasty, all procedures performed in the previous rhinoplasty are repeated. Therefore, the plastic surgeon and the patient should re-evaluate the condition and plan the surgery in collaboration. They must decide what will be changed in the structure of the nose and determine the needs for revision. If tissue grafts are needed, they should decide where to locate them in advance before the operation.
Does revision rhinoplasty allow re-sculpting of the nose?
The nose cannot be restructured during revision rhinoplasty. If you decide to undergo rhinoplasty, it is critical to have it done by an expert surgeon. If there is a breathing problem relating to the nose, it should be corrected during the first procedure. Rhinoplasty should not cause breathing problems when performed correctly.
