Nose surgery, also known as rhinoplasty, is one of the most common cosmetic surgeries available today. This surgery is designed to alter the appearance of the nose and the area around the nose on the face. It is distinguished from other surgeries which serve to correct medical concerns.
Nose surgery can be used to adjust the shape, size and width of the nose, as well as the appearance of the profile of the nose, the tip or the nostrils. Most procedures are performed with a small incision inside of the nose. Cartilage is then either removed or added to the nose via that incision, depending upon the goal of the procedure. Although the specific instruments and techniques used to modify the appearance of the nose will vary depending upon the adjustments that are made, the general procedure remains the same regardless.
The recovery process from nose surgery typically unfolds over a period of several weeks, although most people can return to work and other daily tasks within a few days. During the recovery process, pain killers and antibiotics will help prevent discomfort and secondary infection. The patient must also regularly clean and redress the incision area to ensure a proper and timely recovery process.
