Rhinoplasty Talk

Hello, good day to you, After my rhinoplasty, the doctor recommended washing my nose with a saline solution, but I've seen recipes for making it at home on some websites. Do you think it's safe to use these homemade solutions? I'm worried about getting an infection if I use these DIY solutions.

Hi all, I recently underwent rhinoplasty surgery, and I'm currently in the recovery phase. I'm looking for tips and advice on how to make the recovery process as smooth as possible. Any suggestions for managing pain, reducing swelling, or speeding up healing would be incredibly helpful. Thanks in advance!

Which choice is gonna do the trick better for my bulbous nose: rhinoplasty or those non-surgical fillers?

I have a deviation in my nose where it leans to the left, and my midline is shifted to the right. What are the potential solutions to address both of these issues?

Could someone provide guidance on how to reduce the arch in my nostrils? I generally like my nose and don't want a drastic alteration. I've consulted one doctor who suggested using ear cartilage, but he mentioned it may not be very effective. Are there alternative techniques or options that could be considered for this issue?

I realize that manipulating the frontal cartilage can pose challenges, but I have a specific idea of the nose I'd like to achieve. I'm seeking a subtle change to eliminate the less flattering contours without altering the width of my nostrils. Are there any local surgeons experienced in performing this type of rhinoplasty? Could you also clarify whether this would require an open or closed rhinoplasty, and what the expected timeline for seeing results might be?

Is there any possibility to correct the slight beak-like appearance caused by my smile, which tends to make my nasal tip sag?

There is a depression between my nose and forehead. When I slightly pull my nose down, it improves somewhat. What can be done to address this?

Hello, I am uncomfortable with my nose because my face has weak features. I'm unsure about the specific correction needed, but could you please advise on the type of surgery required for the tip of the nose?

I have one more question. How long should I take a break from wine and beer before I go in for my nose job? Is there a specific number of days or weeks recommended?

I underwent rhinoplasty, but I desire to lower the tip of my nose and rectify the curved portion. Is it possible to achieve these revisions through surgery? After my rhinoplasty, my nose ended up looking really short, turned up, and wide, almost like a bony shape. Can a revision fix this? I want to bring down the tip of my nose and fix the curved part.

What should one anticipate? How much time is typically required for healing post-operation, when does the swelling usually subside, and how long before one can resume work and other activities?

Can you make the end of my nose higher all the time, but not take away bone or make it smaller?

I'm thinking about getting a nose job, but my work schedule is pretty tight. Can I go back to work just a few days after the surgery? Like, can I use tape to help my nose and keep working without needing a lot of downtime?

Hello. I'm interested in undergoing a nose job surgery, I'm currently dealing with heart failure. Could this potentially pose a risk for me? I appreciate your insights.

I am 48 years old, I have high blood pressure, I use medication in the morning and evening, does this prevent me from having nose aesthetic surgery?

I'm not sure what caused this indent, I used to have a nose piercing on this side for a few years - could that be why? I'm also curious about ways to make it less obvious, like maybe using fillers or going for rhinoplasty. My nose's right side has a similar but less noticeable indent, which looks natural. But on the left side, it's more like a circle. Some lighting makes it stand out more, and when I squeeze it, it's less flexible than the other side.

I want the tip of my nose to be lifted without the bone being removed. Is it possible?

Is it possible for the tip of my nose to be permanently lifted without removing the bone and undergoing reduction?

I am 18 days post-septorhinoplasty and have noticed that my nose feels quite firm and rigid. Can I expect it to become more supple and regain a natural feel over time? I underwent this procedure to correct issues that arose after a netball accident two years ago, which resulted in a prominent bump on my nose and a deviated septum. The surgery involved removing the bump, straightening my nose, and refining it by removing some cartilage. My ENT specialist mentioned that the rigidity and firmness might persist indefinitely in some cases. Is this true?
