Aesthetic Surgeon Op. Dr. Alper Mete Uğurlu, explained the 5 facts and 5 myths about rhinoplasty.
[mks_highlight color=”#dd3333″]Myth 1[/mks_highlight]
You can have the nose shape you want with rhinoplasty.
Because the nose is in the middle of the face, almost everyone’s dream is to have a noble nose that will correct your entire look with a nose surgery.
[mks_highlight color=”#81d742″]The Truth[/mks_highlight]
There are certain limitations related to the characteristics of the bone structure and the soft tissue in the nose. Each human nose structure is different. So this should be considered as an option after a consultation with the plastic surgeon in the rhinoplasty.
[mks_highlight color=”#dd3333″]Myth 2[/mks_highlight]
Rhinoplasty is an extremely painful operation.
Most patients are afraid that they will experience a serious pain when they are undergoing a nose job.
[mks_highlight color=”#81d742″]The Truth[/mks_highlight]
This myth is completely unreal. Plastic surgeons perform general anesthesia during surgery. Thus, the patient does not experience pain and discomfort. Correcting the shape of the nose depends on the plastic surgeon’s special knowledge and artistic perspective. So, you should consult only experienced plastic surgeons. In the early days of recovery, unpleasant sensations can be easily eliminated with anesthetic drugs and appropriate medical care.
[mks_highlight color=”#dd3333″]Myth 3[/mks_highlight]
There is no scarring after nose job.
Most people think that they will not have scars after the nose surgery.
[mks_highlight color=”#81d742″]The Truth[/mks_highlight]
This is not 100% accurate. Surgical intervention is remarkable in the first days after surgery. If the nose job is performed open, the incision will scar. But in a few months, it will be less than noticeable. If the operation is performed by a qualified surgeon, the patient himself may not even find the trace a year later.
[mks_highlight color=”#dd3333″]Myth 4[/mks_highlight]
After surgery, your nose will attract the attention of others.
If the nose job is performed by a plastic surgeon who takes care of the patient’s appearance, the new nose will definitely look natural. After the aesthetic defects have been removed, your nose begins to look attractive to other people.
[mks_highlight color=”#81d742″]The Truth[/mks_highlight]
Conditions may vary in cases in which surgery is performed by interns or unqualified surgeons. The nasal process can lead to an unnatural shape, a large area behind the nose, sagging at the tip of the nose, and wide nostrils. Therefore, you should work with an experienced surgeon in every aspect.
[mks_highlight color=”#dd3333″]Myth 5[/mks_highlight]
After plastic surgery, your nose will become sensitive and require special care.
This is the most common misunderstanding that occupies people’s minds. Therefore, some people give up the idea of plastic surgery.
[mks_highlight color=”#81d742″]The Truth[/mks_highlight]
The nose will be sensitive to all external influences during the postoperative period. But you will have no problem with the durability of the nose. Some surgeons believe that the nose-shaped change in relation to the surgery further strengthens the nose.
