Rhinoplasty is also known as a nose job. This is a surgery done on the nose to improve its function or change its shape. This procedure is done for both medical or cosmetic purposes. When someone has breathing problems due to their nose, disfigurement of the nose due to a trauma or a congenital disability, medically this treatment is done.
Cosmetically this procedure is done to give one a new appearance with the change in the shape of the nose.
Do You Need a Nose Job?
If you think that do you need a rhinoplasty, you should set an appointment with a surgeon and talk to him/her about what you are thinking. Talk to him/her about your goals and what is bothering you about your nose, and in what new look you want it to be after the procedure.
It is believed that there’s nothing like a perfect nose or perfect nose doesn’t really exist. But surgery can enhance your facial features and make your looks better and unique. While discussing with your doctor, take opinion from him/her about the changes that would suit your appearance more.
After that doctor will evaluate you and your nose and then will give you his/her decision that you can proceed with the procedure or not.
The doctor will also discuss recovery time, costs and risks involved in this procedure.
The recovery time of Rhinoplasty
After the surgery is over, you will need to splint over your nose for around one week. There might be some swellings and bruising around your eyes after the surgery and will start improving after around three days of the surgery, but can last around two weeks after the surgery. Your nose might have a little swelling for the next six months, but that swelling no one else can notice other than you and your surgeon. After your nose is healed completely, the final shape of your nose will become apparent.
