Types of rhinoplasty
- Nose reduction surgery: This can involve specific areas such as the wing, bridge of the nose, or the width of the nose.
- Nose augmentation surgery: This type of surgery is often curative in nature and can result from deformity or incomplete growth of the nose, or after surgical removal of a portion of the nose.
- Ethnic plastic surgery: Common in certain ethnicities and is characterized by special shape and edge of the nose, such as the people of the Middle East or the Mediterranean.
- Accidental plastic surgery: This is performed in a period of one week to ten days after an accident that caused the destruction of some of the bones or cartilage of the nose.
Stages of rhinoplasty at Onesta Clinic:
Anesthesia can be complete or local, depending on what the doctor orders. After that, the process begins, which is performed through an incision in the nose or without an incision.
- Changing the shape of the nose
When cartilage and bone are removed, cartilage transplantation may sometimes be required.
- Correction of the shape of the nasal septum
If it is deviated, then the surgical incision, ‘if used’, is closed, and a splint is placed on the nose, then the recovery phase begins.
