Advantages of Rhinoplasty: Combining Nasal Aesthetics and Functionality

Post Date: 6/15/2023

 

Rhinoplasty surgery is a surgical procedure performed today in a comfortable manner, aiming to improve both the aesthetic and functional aspects of your nose.

Your nose may not satisfy you in terms of its shape, or the anatomical structure of your nasal passages may make breathing difficult for you. In both cases, your quality of life is negatively affected, and you may need rhinoplasty surgery. Through nose surgery, which is one of the most delicate organs in your body, your nose is naturally reconstructed and all your problems are eliminated.

The core of nasal aesthetic surgeries may involve correcting cartilage and bone deformities that obstruct breathing. In addition, correcting the shape of the nasal tip can be a separate goal. Prof. Dr. Selçuk İnanlı, who has achieved successful results from many rhinoplasty operations, carefully listens to his patients' expectations and performs the most suitable technical interventions according to their needs.

The Importance of Functional Nose Surgery

The need for nose surgery arises due to congenital or acquired problems with your nose, which is the most prominent feature of your face and hence your appearance. These situations imply that you are not satisfied with your facial expression. It is natural to desire a more natural and pleasant appearance. However, alongside this motivation, it is crucial to reach a point where you can breathe more easily and healthily after the surgery. Although rhinoplasty is a safe surgical procedure, it can be more complex compared to other aesthetic treatments. Of course, this may vary from case to case.

As can be understood from the introduction, the success of rhinoplasty surgery is generally determined by two main factors. Firstly, the newly formed nose should have a natural appearance. Consultations and evaluations you have with your specialist before the operation are highly valuable to achieve this goal. During this consultation, your age, gender, and even your lifestyle are taken into consideration. In addition, you undergo a detailed facial analysis. The other factor is that you no longer experience nasal congestion after the nose surgery.

Changes Observed After Rhinoplasty Surgery

After rhinoplasty surgery, the opening of your airways allows for significant changes in your daily life. Following the application that takes place in line with your expectations before the operation and the evaluations of your specialist, you achieve the following results concerning your nose:

  • The tip of the nose is reshaped.
  • It appears more symmetrical.
  • It can decrease or slightly increase in volume.
  • Your nasal hump is corrected.
  • It can become narrower or wider.

After successful rhinoplasty surgery, there is no indication that you have undergone a procedure, and your face has a natural shine. With the new image you see when you look in the mirror, you feel much more confident both in your workplace and social environment.

What Are the Types and Methods of Rhinoplasty?

There are different types and various methods of nasal aesthetic surgeries. Open rhinoplasty and closed rhinoplasty techniques are very common, and the difference between them lies mainly in how the septum is accessed and the comfort it provides to your specialist. Therefore, the open technique is mostly preferred.

In the open method, an incision is made in the section called the "Columella", located between your nostrils, and access is gained through this route. When the skin is lifted here, the septum becomes clearly visible. This allows for more radical changes in your bone and cartilage tissue with a wider field of view. The resulting scar after the operation is usually minimal, fades over time, and becomes completely unnoticeable. Bruising and swelling are generally not seen for a long time.

Another technique that emerged in the field of nasal aesthetic surgeries after the turn of the millennium is called Piezo Rhinoplasty. In this procedure, ultrasonic waves are used to intervene in your nose instead of the breaking and cutting tools used in conventional approaches. It is a safe and innovative method that allows for highly precise, millimeter-scale touches without causing harm to any tissue. As can be understood from this, the cost of nose surgery can vary depending on the technique used and the experience of the specialist.

Your specialist decides which approach to prefer during the rhinoplasty surgery in consultation with you. They assess your general health condition, make the necessary plans, and give you approval for the operation.

Advantages of Rhinoplasty Performed with the Open Technique

As mentioned above, the open technique has its conveniences and benefits compared to the closed method. The most important ones include a wider field of view, sharper interventions, and faster recovery periods. In addition, the risk of complications after the surgery is not as high as perceived. Perhaps the only disadvantage is that it may not be suitable for every candidate. While the closed method can be applied to individuals who require minor changes, open rhinoplasty can be used for everyone regardless of the extent of the deformity.
