Piezo Rhinoplasty

What is Piezo Rhinoplasty?

The operation performed to shape nasal bones is called Piezo rhinoplasty. Piezo refers to the surgical instrument that is used to successfully complete this process. Nasal bones can easily be shaped by using ultrasonic sound waves during the procedure. Piezo technology starts to function quickly on the area it has come into contact with. Therefore, no harm is done to blood vessels, muscles and skin. And as the Piezo rhinoplasty does not have any side effects, patients can go back to their daily life comfortably.

This surgical method can be considered for patients who have snoring problems as well as nasal congestion, since these problems occur due to nasal bone curvature. Patients with breathing problems resulting from snoring and nasal congestion may experience symptoms such as enlargement of heart (cardiomegaly), dry mouth, and a decline in effort capacity in time. And Piezo surgery is among the most reliable methods to be used in order to avoid such problems.

With the developments in technology, new techniques have been introduced in aesthetic operations. Piezo, one of the most preferred rhinoplasty procedures today, ensures that no swelling or bruising occurs after surgery. The ultrasonic waves used in the piezo rhinoplasty sculpt the nose into the desired shape. Previously, in order to reshape the nasal area, the nasal bones used to be broken and severe side effects used to appear. However, thanks to the Piezo technique, the side effects observed in patients have been reduced to a minimum and successful results have been achieved.

A Piezo rhinoplasty usually lasts 2 to 4 hours. However, it is not always possible to set a certain time limit for aesthetic operations. As it is a surgical application, your doctor will inform you in detail about the duration of surgery during your consultation before the procedure.
