RHINOPLASTY
Pre Ops
Rhinoplasty is a surgery performed on the nasal structure to improve the aesthetics or breathing of an individual. This procedure can reduce or increase the size of the nose, change the shape of the tip, and also change bulges on the bridge of the nose. It requires careful analysis to achieve the perfect aesthetic balance between the patient's face and nose.
In the preoperative period, a careful and individualized evaluation and record are required. Considering the size and shape of the face in relation to the nose; the degree of protrusion or retrusion of the frontal and mental regions; the nasoglabellar and nasolabial angles; the dorsum-tip relationship; the thickness of the nostril wing; the nose-lip angle and the positioning of the septum.
A cleansing procedure is necessary one to two weeks before the surgical procedure. To remove blackheads common in this region. Peelings and moisturizing treatments can be performed.

Avoid prolonged sun exposure for at least two weeks before surgery.
