Rhinoplasty

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure aimed at improving the shape and function of the nose. During this operation, issues such as cartilage deviations that make breathing difficult and swelling in the nasal turbinates are also corrected. Rhinoplasty aims to enhance both the appearance and function of the nose.

Suitable Age for Rhinoplasty Surgery

Rhinoplasty is generally performed after the age of 18, as the nasal structures are fully developed by this time.

Pre-Surgery

Before the surgery, a detailed endoscopic examination of the inside of the nose is conducted. The condition of the nasal cartilage, swelling in the turbinates, and other issues are evaluated. Additionally, factors such as the patient's overall health, existing conditions, medication use, and smoking habits are considered.

The patient’s expectations from the surgical results should be realistic. The surgeon will create an appropriate surgical plan by understanding the patient’s desires. The results depend on the surgeon’s experience and factors such as the patient’s age, cartilage and skin structure, and the wound healing process.
