Rhinoplasty Surgery – FAQs

1. What is rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, or a “nose job,” is a surgical procedure to reshape or resize the nose for cosmetic or functional reasons (e.g., breathing issues). Rhinoplasty surgery is often sought for both aesthetic enhancement and medical relief.

2. How long does rhinoplasty surgery take?

The procedure typically takes 1–3 hours, depending on the complexity of the surgery. When considering rhinoplasty surgery, keep scheduling in mind.

3. Is rhinoplasty painful?

Most patients experience mild to moderate discomfort, managed with prescribed pain medication. Swelling and bruising are common after undergoing rhinoplasty surgery.

4. How long is the recovery time?

Initial recovery takes 1–2 weeks, during which swelling and bruising are most noticeable. Full results of rhinoplasty surgery may take 6–12 months as the nose settles.

What is the difference between open and closed rhinoplasty?

An open rhinoplasty involves an incision on the columella, which is the tissue between the nostrils. This approach provides the surgeon with greater visibility and access to the nasal structure, making it better suited for complex reshaping.

In contrast, a closed rhinoplasty utilizes incisions placed entirely inside the nostrils. Consequently, this method results in no external scarring and typically offers a shorter recovery time. Therefore, it is often the preferred technique for more minor adjustments.

Ultimately, the choice between these rhinoplasty surgery techniques varies based on the specific procedure type and the patient’s individual anatomical needs.

6. When can I see the final results?

You will notice improvement as swelling decreases, but the final shape may take up to a year to fully appear after rhinoplasty surgery.

7. How much does rhinoplasty cost?

Costs vary by country, surgeon experience, and procedure type. In the US/Europe, it ranges $5,000–$15,000, while in Istanbul, prices can range $2,000–$5,000 with high-quality surgeons.

8. Are there any risks?

Common risks include infection, bleeding, asymmetry, numbness, or dissatisfaction with aesthetic results. Choosing a qualified surgeon minimizes risks associated with rhinoplasty surgery.

9. Can rhinoplasty fix breathing problems?

Yes, functional rhinoplasty can correct issues like a deviated septum or nasal obstruction while simultaneously improving appearance through rhinoplasty surgery.

10. How long do rhinoplasty results last?

Results are generally permanent, though natural aging may slightly alter appearance over time.

I. Is it cheaper to have rhinoplasty in Istanbul than in my home country?
