Nose surgery is usually done in a hospital in Boston using general anesthesia.
The techniques used for a nose surgery for each patient is unique, but it is standard for every nose surgery that we perform to involve sculpting the nose cartilage, refining the tip of the nose, and the reduction of the size of the nasal bone. Small incisions will be made at the base of the nose and the inner part of the nostrils.
Depending on the results desired by patients in Boston Rhinoplasty surgeon Dr. Russo will mold the underlying bone and structures to achieve a better facial contour and improve the patient’s nasal profile. After rearranging and reshaping the bone and cartilage, the skin will be re-draped over the nose. A splint will be placed inside the nose to provide support and to ensure that the new shape is maintained while the wounds heal.
During the first week after rhinoplasty Boston patients are advised to be in an elevated position when they sleep. Patients should expect slight pain and bruise in the nose and eye area. A cold compress can help manage these symptoms.
A week after the procedure, our patients will come back to our Boston office for a follow-up to remove the sutures as well as the splint. Our Boston rhinoplasty patients will be provided instructions on proper massage techniques that will facilitate healing after a Rhinoplasty. Best rhinoplasty results can be appreciated by our patients in about a year after they had their nose surgery.
