Nose deformity correction surgery, commonly known as rhinoplasty, is a highly effective procedure to reshape the nose. This surgery is popular for both cosmetic enhancements and functional improvements, helping patients resolve aesthetic concerns and functional issues related to the nose. Given the nose's central position on the face, even minor deformities can significantly impact one's appearance, making rhinoplasty one of the most sought-after cosmetic surgeries globally.
The process begins with a detailed consultation, where the surgeon evaluates the nose's structure in relation to the face. Photographic analysis is often used to plan the surgery accurately. Rhinoplasty typically takes one to two hours and can be performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's medical history and the complexity of the surgery. Incisions are usually made inside the nostrils to ensure that there are no visible scars externally. The surgeon then reshapes the underlying bone and cartilage to achieve the desired contour before re-draping the skin over the newly structured nose and closing the incisions.
Recovery from rhinoplasty is relatively quick, with most patients returning to daily activities within a few days and resuming full-time work within a week. Swelling may persist for a few weeks but gradually diminishes. Pain is typically minimal and manageable with mild painkillers. If the surgery involves bone alteration, some bruising around the eyes may occur, which naturally resolves within a couple of weeks.
Post-operative care is crucial; patients are monitored for a few hours after surgery to ensure there are no immediate complications. The surgery is generally an outpatient procedure, with no overnight hospital stay required. Patients are advised to sleep with their head elevated and avoid strenuous activities or pressure on the nose during the initial recovery phase to ensure optimal healing.
