Questions about plastic surgery
Certain noses allow scars to be hidden inside the nasal cavity. In these cases, there will be no apparent scar. In other cases, however, there are external scars that are not very apparent, as a result of incisions (cuts) made in the columella or nasal wings to better harmonize the result or even nasal physiology.
Each patient behaves differently in relation to the evolution of the scars and in the specific case of the nose, they generally become imperceptible. Certain patients may, however, be prone to unsightly scarring (hypertrophic or keloid). This fact should be discussed at the initial consultation, as well as your family characteristics. Fair-skinned people tend to develop this type of scarring less often.
Various clinical and surgical resources allow us to improve these unsightly scars at the right time. However, hypertrophic or keloid scars should not be confused with the natural evolution of the mediate healing period. Any doubts about your healing progress should be clarified during your post-operative visits, when the stage you are at can be assessed.
Various clinical and surgical resources allow us to improve these unsightly scars at the right time. However, the “mediate period” of normal healing (from the 30th day to the 12th month) should not be confused with a healing complication. Any doubts about your progress should be clarified with your doctor.
No. There is an aesthetic balance between the nose and the face, which the surgeon must observe in order to preserve the naturalness and authenticity of the face. The quality of the skin on the nose can also affect the prognosis of the desired result. Each case is studied so that the nose can be given the best possible shape, within the requirements of the face. If your choice coincides with the type of nose you have planned, your wish will undoubtedly be granted. Surgeon and patient must agree on the possible result. In addition, the nose has numerous functions, including breathing and olfaction, which need to be respected.
No. Several phases are characteristic of the post-operative period of the nose. This is why, in the first phase (right after the immobilizing bandage is removed, around the 7th day), despite the correction of various aesthetic defects of the original nose, we notice edema (swelling) which decreases over the days and tends to normalize around 6 to 12 months. There are patients who achieve the final result a little earlier, as well as others who go beyond this period. Whether or not transient edema persists for a longer period than normal does not usually interfere with the final result.
Rhinoplasty aims to improve aesthetic conditions and, when necessary, correct some of the patient’s respiratory alterations, when these conditions are precarious in the original nose. There may be slight breathing difficulties at certain times of the day in the immediate post-operative period. Over time it tends to normalize. When correction of the septum is necessary, rhinoplasty can be performed at the same time or on a second occasion, depending on the case.
The effect of surgery on this symptom is unpredictable. The important thing is to try as much as possible to preserve respiratory functions during rhinoplasty.
The result of a rhinoplasty lasts for a long time. After a few years, as with any part of the body, there may be some morphological changes in the nasal region due to the patient’s age.
Every medical act includes a variable risk and plastic surgery, as part of medicine, is no exception. You can minimize the risk by preparing each patient properly, but you can’t eliminate it completely.
Both local anesthesia under sedation and general anesthesia can be used. It will be up to the surgical team to choose the most appropriate one.
Between one and two hours. In some cases this time is exceeded. However, surgical time should not be confused with the length of time the patient stays in the operating room, as this also includes the period of anesthetic preparation and post-operative recovery. Your doctor will be able to tell you the total time.
It can vary from half a day to a day in hospital. Depending on the type of anesthesia used and the patient’s recovery in the immediate postoperative period.
