If you are unhappy with the appearance of your nose or it is difficult for you to breathe, you may have thought about rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty or nose reshaping is the most common cosmetic surgery, and the doctor’s skill is essential in determining the operation’s result.
Nose surgery has various styles or types such as Natural, Fantasy, Semi-Fantasy, Fleshy and Boney noses, and Reconstructive Surgery (also called Revision Rhinoplasty or Second Nose Operation).
TurkCure offers its rhinoplasty package in Turkey.
In this method, the surgeon will cut the skin of the nose from its middle blade and then remove the skin and soft tissue from the underneath parts of the nose, known as cartilage. Finally, he or she will return them all to their previous place and stitch.
The surgeon will suggest you choose the closed method when there are minor and unimportant changes. In this method, he or she will make slits and incisions in the inner parts of the nose and internal cavities to remove humps and deviations.
| Advantages of Open Surgery | Advantages of Closed Surgery |
|---|---|
| The surgeon has more maneuverability and freedom of action. | Closed surgery is performed in a shorter period. |
| It is easier for the surgeon to access different nose parts. | No incision will be made on the nose. |
| Best option for correcting fleshy, hump noses or solving the problem of nasal deviation. | No scars remain on the nose. Swelling of the nose will last shorter. |

The exact time to complete this operation depends on the type of rhinoplasty surgery. For example, open nose surgery takes up to three hours.
The important thing is that patients can see what the final result will look like. The 3D photography helps the patient and the doctor significantly understand what the patient’s nose will look like, even before the operation. Patients will be more satisfied and happy as a result of this, and the surgery outcome will be more in line with what they want for themselves.

What we talked about concerned the nose job done under general anesthesia, while there is another approach available as well. This is called Simple or Non-surgical Rhinoplasty.
If you have had rhinoplasty before and are not satisfied with the first nose job results, you might want to know about revision rhinoplasty.
Another option is septoplasty. Septoplasty helps people with breathing disorders to have both improved breathing and a more symmetric and beautiful nose.

After more than a week in Turkey, your doctor will check on your nose to ensure that everything is going well with your nose. Besides, when doing a nose operation or rhinoplasty, you should wait at least a week before boarding a plane because you need rest and only do light activities.
The typical recovery time after nose surgery is one week. This is the minimum time you should wait before being able to fly on an airplane. Considering that you will enter Turkey 1 day before your actual operation date, you will stay in Turkey for at least seven days before receiving the last doctor visit.
The fastest time you can think of returning to your typical activity routine is two weeks. But it is best to consider your total recovery time between four to six weeks. During this time, the bones on your nose have healed. Again be careful with high-impact sports and avoid crowded places as there is a risk of harm to your nose.
Applying new methods and careful inspection of your nose helps decide the final shape of it even before the actual surgery. Generally, scarring from rhinoplasty is possible, and it mostly happens on the columella. The knowledge and experience of the surgeon count here.
The final results of the nose rhinoplasty turn visible when all of the swellings have gone. The form of the new nose is usually obvious within two weeks, but let three months to witness the results of the operation.
