Nose Tip Reduction

Nose tip reduction operations are operations in which the anatomy of the nose changes so that the patient reaches the desired nose. Surgery may not always be necessary to change the appearance of the nose. The desired image can also be achieved in the nose with operations such as filling. If a nose tip reduction is desired, it is not possible to perform this procedure without surgery. Because during this process, the base of the nose along with the tip of the nose, that is, the holes, are also reduced, thus providing a desired and aesthetic-looking ratio.

A reduction procedure can be performed as part of a nose operation, as well as an operation aimed only at the tip of the nose in itself. After removing the arch or asymmetry during nose surgery, if the base of the nose is disproportionate to the rest of the nose, the doctor may go down the path of reducing the tip of the nose. Reducing the tip of the nose also means shrinking the nostrils. During this procedure, care is taken to ensure that the base of the nose is symmetrical, maintaining the ratio and oval shape of the nostrils.

After the reduction, there are no scars, but there may be rashes around the nostrils that can last for up to a month. Although these rashes are normal, they are temporary. After surgery, the result that appears when the splint is removed is not actually the desired result. Given that the splint was removed after a week, it is possible that there are still bruises and edema on the face. It takes about 6 weeks for the nose to take its new shape. During this time, step by step, it is possible to observe that the bruises disappear and the swelling descends. Before 6 weeks, it is necessary not to panic about the result of the operation. In fact, the full result will appear after 6 months.

How Is Nose Tip Reduction Surgery Performed?

Nasal tip reduction surgery can be performed alone, as well as as part of nasal surgery. It is an operation that is often preferred by people with a wide base of the nose. In addition, if a disproportionate image occurs after surgery, reduction can be done even if the base of the nose is not too wide. The nose is reduced from the part from the eye spring to the holes. Surgery can take between an hour and two hours. After that, splints and tampons can be used. Today, with the development of medical materials, splints and tampons no longer prevent breathing, causing no pain or pain when removed. The tip of the nose is reduced, while the nostrils are also reduced. Here, care is taken to ensure that the image is proportional, as well as to maintain the shape of the nostrils, so that the person can breathe and breathe comfortably.

Does Reduction Surgery Affect Breathing?

Besides determining the appearance of the face of the nose, it performs two more basic functions. People can smell through their noses, but also the smell has an indirect effect on taste. In addition, the structure of the nose is suitable for us to get the oxygen we need to live our lives in the best way possible. Nasal tip reduction surgery also involves shrinking the nostrils. So patients may worry about not being able to breathe healthy or losing their sense of smell. Here it is important to maintain a healthy ratio. In addition, if there is asymmetry in the nostrils, trapezoid bone, or polyp formations in the nose, the operation can actually increase the quality of your breathing, as well as negatively affect your healthy breathing, since they will also be corrected during the operation.

What Are The Risks Of Surgery?

Because it is performed under general anesthesia, blood is taken and tested before surgery. If it is not risky for the person to receive anesthesia, the operation is performed. The risks of general anesthesia apply to this operation. Apart from this, the most important risk is that negative results will be achieved when performed by inexperienced surgeons. Nose surgery requires both experience and dexterity. Reshaping the nose requires a sculptor's finesse. Every nose and every person's desires are different. If you do not want to take a risk, you should have an experienced doctor perform nasal tip reduction surgery in a hospital environment.
