How does the face change with rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty is a very common surgery that is performed to reshape the nose, both for aesthetic reasons and to correct some aspects related to respiratory disorders. One One of the most asked questions, however, is: how does the face change with rhinoplasty? The nose is right at the center of our face and its shape can make a huge difference in our expression and also in the image we have of ourselves. It is precisely for this reason, in fact, that we turn to a surgeon: because we don't like the nose we have, it doesn't reflect us. Let's see how one changes rhinoplasty, before and after.


RHINOPLASTY: BEFORE THE OPERATION
Surgical reshaping of the nose is very common, but it is still a surgical procedure to which pay attention. It is very important, in fact, to rely on expert medical personnel who will evaluate all the tests to be subjected to the patient and who will have to understand their needs. Rhinoplasty is coming performed both for purely aesthetic reasons and to correct functional imbalances. When yes It also intervenes on the septum and is called rhinoseptoplasty. The surgeon, first of the operation, not only examines your state of health, but carefully studies the form of the face. Medical considerations will aim to approach the patient's requests, without distort its physiognomy. Once the shape of the nose has been decided together, we will proceed with the actual surgery own.


RHINOPLASTY: IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE OPERATION
Rhinoplasty has made great strides over the years and recovery is increasingly painless. The first 48 hours are for rest, preferably with the head raised. From the third day, you can resume one's normal life, albeit with some precautions, such as avoiding intense sports, saunas, hot drinks and sun exposure. It is precisely in the first days that the appearance of the nose can intimidating, but should not cause any concern. In fact, they appear in the first 48 hours swelling and bruising around the eyes. The nose is still covered with a small cast, but it can appear more swollen. This effect is only temporary and should absolutely not be confused with the final result. The cast is usually removed after a week. At this point of the post-operative course, the nose may still appear slightly swollen, but it is destined to quickly gain the harmonious shape agreed between surgeon and patient.


RHINOPLASTY: WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE OPERATION
After a couple of weeks after the operation, the nose finally healed. The new form will be finally closer to the patient's canons and even the face will have gained a new expression, without distorting its characteristics. This is precisely the sign of a job well done: the there is correction of the nose, but the result never appears artificial. A good rhinoplasty job, in fact, it takes into account precisely this: correcting problems, aesthetic or functional, with respect always the overall line of the face and the patient. For this reason, and thanks to its progress recent years, it is the treatment of choice for those who want to correct a:

• aquiline nose
• bulbous nose or fleshy tip
• deviated nose
• nose disproportionate to the face
• nose with wide nostrils
• nose with nasal hump (the classic “hump”).


Comparing before and after rhinoplasty photos can be helpful in understanding the difference a good intervention can be done and the type of shape that is preferred, but sometimes it can also be misleading. Each surgery is different, because every face is different. It is useful to contact the surgeon with clear ideas, but also with the awareness of being able to speak and discuss openly of any doubt, allowing us to advise you on the form.
