Nose Lift Surgery

Nose lift surgery is the surgery performed with the aim of removing the tip of the nose. In general, it is easier to do than nose reduction surgeries. This procedure is preferred by people who do not have a belt and have a low tip of the nose or have a very wide tip of the nose. 

​How to Perform Nose Lift Surgery?

During nose lift surgery, no changes are made to the anatomical structure of the nose. Only the tip of the nose is intervened. Nose tip surgery is performed with closed rhinoplasty technique. In this technique, the incision is thrown through the nose, not the outside. The soft cartilage structure that forms your nose tip is sometimes reshaped using filler. Local or general anesthesia can be used. The process takes about half an hour to an hour. If the patient is given general anesthesia, the duration of hospital stay may vary, but usually if there are no problems, the patient is discharged on the same day.

The bumper is only installed if deemed necessary. The tampons used today are shaped like perforated silicone splints, so that they do not make breathing difficult like tampons used in the past, and the patient does not feel pain when removing them because they do not stick to the nose.

 

​Postoperative Recovery Period

Since there is no change in the anatomical structure of the nose, the recovery period of the nose lift surgery is faster than other nose surgeries. It is recommended to stay in the hospital one day after the operation. Drinking water in the first four hours is not recommended. It will be appropriate to rest within 4 to 7 days after surgery. In this process, the drugs given by the doctor should be used completely and without skipping the time.

Although it is less in nasal lift surgeries than in general nose surgeries, it is still normal to have bruises and swelling. Keeping the first week high, avoiding excessive physical activity helps to heal bruises and swelling quickly. For this, it is recommended to use a high pillow when in the sleeping position. Usually tampons are removed after the first week, and after the third week the patient can resume his normal life.

 

Nasal Tip Drop

The fall of the tip of the nose after nose surgeries is the most common known fear of these surgeries. Although many people talk about such a risk, thanks to the techniques used today, it is very rare that the tip of the nose drops after surgery. In the past, low nasal tip was caused by the removal of too much cartilage tissue for the purpose of shaping the nose. However, cartilage tissue is almost like the roof of the nose and this roof is very important especially in the appearance of the tip of the nose. Thanks to the newly developed methods, this problem is very, very rare. So it's safe to call postoperative nose job an urban legend.

 

Is My Nose Suitable for Surgery?

The nose consists of bone, cartilage and skin. These variables are different in every person. Anyone who has completed bone development and does not prevent them from getting anesthesia can have a nose job. The difficult or easy operation determines the cartilage, bone, skin and nose shape desired by the patient. For example, if the scalp is thin, even the slightest mistake will be very obvious. On the contrary, if it is too thick, the changes made this time may not be noticeable. This depends entirely on the patient and the physician, and therefore it is important to choose an experienced physician.

Since nose lift surgery is performed with closed rhinoplasty method, it is much faster than other surgeries and the healing process is easier to get over. You can contact us for information about nose aesthetic prices.
