rhinoplasty
Before the Operation.
One and sometimes two
consultations are required.
Pre-operative digital photographs will be taken and an indication of the desired outcome may be demonstrated on the computer.
The operative plan will be discussed in detail so that both patient and
surgeon have realistic expectations.
The operation.
Rhinoplasty is usually carried out under general anaesthesia. Cuts are placed inside the nose where they cannot be seen. Occasionally a small cut is placed underneath the tip of the nose. The skin is lifted off the underlying bone and cartilage which can then be adjusted to
create the desired shape. The nasal bones often have to be broken to produce a straight nose. Occasionally a dressing is placed inside the nose to prevent bleeding.
