Rhinoplasty is the operation where the nose is reshaped. The nose can be reduced and enlarged, the angle can be changed according to the upper lip, the shape of the tip of the nose can be changed, indentations and protrusions can be corrected. During the operation, the surgeon is reached with a small incision in the cartilage supporting the bone and nose. Depending on the desired result, some bone and cartilage may be removed or added. Often, the sliding septum cartilage disrupts the symmetry of the nose and closes the nostrils and prevents comfortable breathing. Rhinoplasty operation, which is performed under anesthesia with sağ deviation (intranasal deformities that make breathing difficult) operation, can provide a healthy breathing and aesthetic image and increase your quality of life.
Nose aesthetics should be planned individually. Most importantly, the patient should have an idea about the new image before surgery. For this reason, we always do a 3D image study to our patients before surgery.
There are many different methods in nose surgery. (open and closed nose surgery) “It would be right to choose which one“The advantages and disadvantages of the methods should be decided after explaining to the patient.
In open nose surgery, the surgeon can fully master the anatomy of the nose. Therefore, open nose surgery technique is more common and gives satisfactory results. It is advantageous for the surgeon to be able to manage the operation in more detail, especially since the control of the nasal tip is high. The curvature of the nose is usually caused by the nose roof (valv) and the cartilage back on the nose. These two factors are strengthened better by the help of grafts in open surgery. We recommend open rhinoplasty surgery for the least risk for the final appearance and comfortable breathing results.
There is no cutting operation in closed nose surgery. The wall in the middle of the two nostrils is called kolumella. In open surgery, kolumella is cut and the nose is opened. At the end of the operation the internal suture is discarded. There is not this process in the closed operation, so the operation results faster. The surgeon can use the cutter and rasp to correct the nose and nose tip. To underline again, open surgery can be performed more easily and comprehensively.
The completion of open rhinoplasty surgery can last around 4 hours. Nevertheless, it may be misleading to specify a certain time period. In some cases, nasal features may vary. Patients who have undergone surgery previously come more frequently. These operations, called revision surgery and may take longer.
With the help of developing medical instruments and techniques, patients are more comfortable after surgery. During the operation, our anesthesia and reanimation specialist Assistant Professor Ali Bestami, keeps patient's blood pressure in balance. With the support of the ice application to the area immediately after the operation bruising and swelling is minimized. However, it should be noted that mild swelling and bruises lasting 7-10 days are inherent in interfering with living tissue.
Among the most important psychological factors that cause fear are the failure to wake up from anesthesia is the first one. Anesthesia and reanimation is an area you don't know and it's natural for you to feel fear about something you don't know. General anesthesia is applied to the patient with different drugs and the patient becomes numbness and unconsciousness. During the operation, the patient's vital functions is monitored by the anesthesiologist. The duration of general anesthesia is dominated by the specialist of anesthesia and reanimation. Our team has been working together for a long time in nasal surgeries.
The nose operations performed by Ahmet Hamdi Kepekçi are happening under general anesthesia. We serve as a full-scale hospital not a little clinic. General anesthesia maximizes the comfort of the patient while providing the surgeon with a much more detailed study.
In the first week, patients should rest from work. Don't lie on your nose while sleeping and when showering, water should not be touch upwards of neck. Hair should be washed separately.
• The tooth must be brushed lightly, not by applying pressure to the teeth.
• At the end of the first week, the patient can work with the nosebleeds, but it is not recommended lifting Heavy things.
• In the first 3 days, we recommend that our patients do not smoke for the healing of intranasal wounds...
• During the first 30 days, our patients who have nasal surgery should not wear any sunglasses.

Unlike our female patients, nasal bones should not be thinned in male patients. Although male and female nose aesthetics are the same in terms of methodology, but they can be different in aesthetic purpose and principle.
In some patients, leaving a very light arch on the nose will reveal a more natural and beautiful result.
The ideal angle between nose and upper lip in women is 100-105 degrees. In men, this angle should not exceed 90-95 degrees. Reducing this angle causes a raised nasal structure to cause a feminine image to the male patient.
