Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a “nose job”, is a cosmetic procedure designed to refine and enhance the shape of the nose. At Banobagi, we have a team of experienced surgeons who are skilled in performing this procedure with precision and care. While any surgery requires careful planning and consideration, rhinoplasty is a routine procedure for our experts, and they prioritize patient comfort and satisfaction throughout the process. Our team utilizes state-of-the-art techniques and technology to ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients.

The concept of the “best” nose shape is subjective and varies based on individual preferences, cultural norms, and aesthetic ideals. What’s considered ideal in one culture or era might differ in another. Rather than a universal “best” shape, the most suitable nose for an individual is one that harmoniously balances with their unique facial features and meets their personal aesthetic desires. At Banobagi, our approach is personalized, focusing on enhancing each patient’s natural beauty and achieving a result that aligns with their vision while maintaining functionality and structural integrity.

The ideal age for a rhinoplasty largely depends on both physical maturity and emotional readiness. Generally, it’s advisable to wait until the nose has reached its full growth, which typically occurs by the late teenage years. For girls, this is often around 16-17 years of age, and for boys, it might be a bit later, around 17-18. However, every individual matures at a unique rate. Beyond physical considerations, it’s essential that the individual is emotionally mature and has realistic expectations from the surgery. Our team is committed to ensuring that each patient is a good candidate for the procedure, taking into account both their physical development and personal readiness.

Rhinoplasty results are designed to be long-lasting. Once the nose has healed and settled into its new shape post-surgery, the changes are typically permanent. However, it’s important to note that the nose, like the rest of the face and body, undergoes natural aging processes. Over the decades, there might be some subtle shifts in the structure or appearance due to factors like gravity, aging, or skin changes. Nonetheless, the primary improvements and modifications achieved through the surgery remain intact. We pride ourselves on providing results that not only enhance aesthetics but also stand the test of time, ensuring our patients can enjoy their new look for years to come.

Recovery experiences can vary, but many patients find the post-operative period after a rhinoplasty to be more about discomfort rather than intense pain. It’s common to experience some swelling, stuffiness, and mild tenderness. Our surgical techniques aim to minimize discomfort, and we provide detailed aftercare instructions along with appropriate medications to manage and alleviate any uneasiness. Our dedicated team is always available to support and guide patients throughout the recovery process, ensuring they have a comfortable and smooth healing journey.

Yes, improving nasal breathing is one of the functional aspects of rhinoplasty. In addition to cosmetic enhancements, rhinoplasty can address structural issues within the nose, such as a deviated septum or enlarged turbinates, that might be causing breathing difficulties. At Banobagi, our skilled surgeons assess both the aesthetic and functional concerns of patients. If you’re experiencing breathing issues, our team can devise a surgical plan tailored to address these specific challenges, ensuring not only an aesthetically pleasing result but also improved nasal function and comfort.

After rhinoplasty, you can gently wash your face, avoiding the surgical area, as early as the day following the procedure. It’s essential to be cautious and not get the nasal splint or bandages wet. Typically, once the splint or any dressings are removed by your surgeon, usually within a week, you can resume more regular face washing, while still being gentle around the nasal area. We provide detailed post-operative care instructions to ensure our patients can maintain hygiene and comfort without compromising the healing process.

Rhinoplasty is often performed as an outpatient procedure, allowing patients to return home the same day after a brief period of post-operative observation. However, in some cases, depending on the complexity of the surgery or individual patient needs, an overnight stay might be recommended for optimal care and monitoring.

While some minor bleeding or spotting can be expected immediately after rhinoplasty, it is not typical for patients to experience frequent nosebleeds in the extended post-operative period. Any initial bleeding usually subsides within the first few days. It’s essential to follow all post-operative care instructions, such as avoiding nose blowing and strenuous activities, to minimize the risk of bleeding.
