About the Operation

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to change the shape, size, or proportions of the nose, or to improve breathing function. It can be performed using an open or closed technique and includes interventions such as correcting the nasal bridge, reshaping the nasal tip, correcting deviation (septal curvature), and adjusting the size of the nasal wings. It is one of the most in-demand aesthetic surgical procedures in Turkey due to the high number of specialists and cost advantages.

Application Details

  • 1In the open technique, a small incision is made at the columella; in the closed technique, incisions remain inside the nose.
  • 2Cartilage and bone structures are reshaped; ear or rib cartilage may be used as a graft if needed.
  • 3A cast or splint is applied for 1 week after the operation.
  • 4In the first months, swelling prevents the final shape from settling; the definitive appearance forms in 6–12 months.

Who Is It Suitable For?

  • Adults who are dissatisfied with the shape, size, or symmetry of their nose
  • Patients with functional problems such as septal deviation or breathing difficulties
