Rhinoplasty Surgery in Tonk

Rhinoplasty can be classified both in terms of technique and purpose.

Depending on the approach to surgery:

• Closed Rhinoplasty: Surgery is done on the inside of the nose. This is the least invasive procedure that entails faster healing.
• Open Rhinoplasty: It is done with a small external incision, which is more appropriate for complex corrections.

Based on purpose:

• Cosmetic Rhinoplasty: It is aimed at enhancing the look of the nose.
• Functional Rhinoplasty: Is used to fix the breathing problem and enhance airflow.
• Tip Plasty: Only the tip of the nose is focused on to make it better shaped and projected.
• Revision Rhinoplasty: Performed to correct or improve the results of a previous surgery.
• Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty: Fillers are used to temporarily reshape the nose.

Every type is chosen according to the needs of a patient and the complexity of the case.

Preparation Steps

It starts with an elaborate consultation. During this phase:

• The surgeon studies the nose form and the proportions of the face.
• Medical history, medications, and allergies are noted.
• The expectations and concerns of the patient are addressed.
• Recommendations for necessary tests or imaging can be made.
• An individualized surgery plan is developed.

Before surgery, patients are encouraged to quit smoking and avoid taking some drugs such as blood thinners. Pre-procedure instructions given include fasting as well.

Surgery Day

The patient is administered local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia on the day of surgery, depending on the complexity of the surgery. The surgeon proceeds with the following steps:

1. Makes incisions depending on the technique that has been selected.
2. Lifts the skin to expose the bone and cartilage.
3. Reshape the nose as needed.
4. Corrects internal issues like septal deviation.
5. Repositions the skin and closes the incisions.

Aftercare & Recovery

To achieve optimal outcomes, recovery following rhinoplasty should be done with care.

1. The optimum time for wearing the splint is 1-2 weeks.
2. The nose is usually initially swollen and mildly bruised.
3. The pain tends to be mild and is managed by medication.
4. At least 4-6 weeks of avoidance of heavy activities.
5. Sleeping with the head raised is beneficial in minimizing swelling.
6. The nose should not be exposed to direct sunshine.
7. A few weeks of no nose blowing.

Follow-ups to check the healing process are recommended. Although the improvements can be observed at the initial stages, the ultimate shape may take up to 9-12 months to fully stabilize.

• Minor scarring
