The Nose Reduction Surgery

Rhinoplasty is a treatment where medicine and aesthetics meet. Depending on the person’s demand and facial structure much different purposes might be targeted in the surgery. Nasal reduction, which is one of these goals, is frequently requested in rhinoplasty operations. Indeed, a disproportionately large nose affects the appearance quite negatively. It causes people to have self-confidence problems. The situation may have progressed so much that the person may think that the people they meet are focus on their noses. The nose reduction surgery, which solves these problems, improves the shape, size, and symmetry of the person’s nose, making it fitter with the rest of the face. Today, with the help of modern methods such as the piezo technique, the surgery can perform more comfortably and successfully than in the past.

Who is suitable for nose reduction surgery?

People who are not satisfied with the general appearance of their nose and who want a smaller nose shape proportional to their face are suitable candidates. In addition to this, people who cannot breathe properly through their nose, who have problems such as chronic sinusitis and curvature of the nasal bone can be fixed together with rhinoplasty.

At what age can I have nose surgery?

To the best facial appearance in rhinoplasty, the nose must have completed its physical development. It’s the ages of 15-16 in girls and 16-17 in boys. Therefore, younger patients are not suitable for this surgery.

Is it possible to reduce the length of the nose without surgery?

There is a general rule in life: for something to shrink, its volume must decrease. The main structure that causes the size of the nose is the nasal bone. Unfortunately, it is not possible to reduce the size of the nasal bone with different methods without rasping the nasal bone. On the other hand, it is not possible to reduce the size of the nose with non-surgical operations such as a filling. The filling method’s main functionality is hiding aesthetic problems by adding volume to nearby areas. Therefore, there is no valid method other than surgery for nose reduction.

How is noses reduction surgery done?

The surgery needs general anesthesia. It takes about 1 to 3 hours, depending on the difficulty of the procedure. The closed or open technique can use depending on the problem the surgeon wants to fix. After the surgery, the patient can go home when the effect of anesthesia wears off.

Dr. Hayati Kale, MD, uses a piezo ultrasonic shaping device in almost all operations related to rhinoplasty. In this way, since traditional methods such as hammer chisel are not use, postoperative swelling and pain considerably reduce, and the recovery period shortens.
