Patients who are considering rhinoplasty surgery may ask whether there is a right season for getting one. Most of us have heard among the public that it’s risky to have a nose job in the summer. Although this information is not completely correct, it has a point. There are several disadvantages to having a nose job in the summer compared to the winter season, indeed. So, is there really such a thing as a convenient season for a nose job?
Rhinoplasty surgery can be performed every season. However, in terms of the postoperative period, the winter and the spring seasons are more popular. Firstly, you should expect to experience more edema and bleeding your nose after the operation in the summer due to hot weather. Then, there are some factors patients need to be careful about after resting for 15 days after the surgery. The plaster and splints, which were placed in the nose at the end of the surgery, should be protected from water in any way until they are removed by me. Another important thing patients need to do is wearing sunscreen and a hat before going outdoors. The operated area may change its color due to exposure to the sun. This may endanger the healing process. As we all know, it is forbidden to wear glasses for a period of approximately two months after rhinoplasty. Besides, you have to suspend your summer vacation plans for a while to preserve your nose from the sun and sea.
It should be noted that, although it comes with some problems, there is still a number of people who prefer having rhinoplasty in the summer. Summer might be advantageous in the case of patients who are willing to spend their annual leave from work to rhinoplasty surgery. Besides, spring and winter sessions have also issues with getting a nose job. Some people’s allergies become worse during the spring, which may lead to difficulties after the surgery. Also, diseases such as flu and cold can negatively affect the process in the winter.
To sum up everything that has been stated so far, rhinoplasty is an operation that can be performed in all four seasons. Therefore, it is not reasonable to talk about the best season for this procedure. But we can talk about the best time for each patient, depending on their special conditions and demands. There is a possibility of encountering some postoperative difficulties in every season, but keep in mind that these are just temporary problems. You will have a much more proportional and aesthetic nose while having the ability to breathe properly than ever, thanks to rhinoplasty. A significant change in your nose will be seen within one week once the bruises and swelling begin to reduce. The final results will be obtained in a period of time between six months to one year after the procedure.
