Rhinoplasty
It is the surgery that changes the shape of the nose, its appearance and improves breathing. The upper portion of the structure of the nose is bone, and its lower portion is cartilage. With the help of rhinoplasty your bone, cartilage, skin, or all three can be changed. Your surgeon will let you know whether rhinoplasty is appropriate for you and what it can achieve. Other facial features are also considered while planning for rhinoplasty.
Preparing for Rhinoplasty
Few factors to be considered before rhinoplasty include:
- Your medical history
- A physical exam
- Photographs
- A discussion of your expectations
During the Surgery
· Local anesthesia with sedation - This type of anesthesia is used in an outpatient setting that is limited to a specific area of your body. The doctor will inject a pain-numbing medication into nasal tissues and sedate you with medication injected through an intravenous line.
· General anesthesia - You receive the drug by inhaling or through a small tube that is placed in a vein in the hand, neck, or chest. General anesthesia will affect the entire body and make you unconscious during surgery.
Rhinoplasty is completed inside the nose or through alittle external incision made at the bottom of your nose and between the nostrils. The surgeon will readjust the bone and cartilage underneath the skin. He can also change the shape of your nasal bones or cartilage in different ways that depend on how much needs to be removed or added. For few changes, the surgeon may use cartilage from deep inside your nose or from your ear. For large changes cartilage from your rib, implants, or bone from other parts of your body can be used. The surgeon will place the nose's skin and tissue back and will stitch the incisions in your nose. The surgeon will also correct the wall between the two sides of the nose is bent or crooked.
