Rhinoplasty Procedure Options
Open Rhinoplasty
With an Open Rhinoplasty procedure, a small incision is created on the outside of the nose, hidden in the natural contours of the columella. This technique provides optimal visualization of the surgical site, allowing your surgeon to deliver more extensive correction.
Closed Rhinoplasty
With a Closed Rhinoplasty procedure, all incisions are created inside the nose, ensuring that there are no visible scars. Patients who wish to correct minimal issues in the tip of their nose can benefit from this rhinoplasty technique.
Rhinoplasty Recovery Time
The length of recovery after rhinoplasty is different for every patient. Patients can expect some discomfort, congestion, bruising, and swelling during the first few weeks of recovery. One week after surgery, any internal and external splints are removed. Side effects should subside considerably within two weeks, at which point most patients return to work and social activities. Out-of-town patients should plan to stay in the area for up to 10 days before traveling home to allow enough time for a follow-up with Dr. Mendieta.
Exercise
Exercise and weight lifting should be avoided for at least one month after rhinoplasty, as these activities increase the risk of postoperative complications.
Rhinoplasty Results Timeline
It can take up to one year to heal completely and see the final results of your rhinoplasty procedure. The natural aging process often causes the skin to thicken gradually, so your nose may appear slightly different over time. Rhinoplasty is intended to provide permanent results, as long as you follow all aftercare instructions while your nose adjusts to its new form.
