Will my Surgeon Be More Likely to Do a Better Job on my Rhinoplasty if I'm His First Surgery of the Day or the Last?

I know it seems like a silly question but its really not. Take for example my hair stylist. I've found she does a much better job if I'm her very first client of the day. Verses being the last when she;s worked all day and tired. I know a stylist goes through a lot more clients in a day then a surgeon, so their not comparable. But i'm still wondering if it makes a difference? I've researched my surgeon and am confident in him but i'm still looking for the best possible results, as is anyone!!

A: What time of day is best to have surgery

As you can see from the answers, it totally depends on the surgeon. Some surgeons feel they can deliver consistently good results whether first thing in the morning, or last surgery of the day. Others have a strong preference on what time of day they operate. Personally I will only schedule surgery if I feel like I can give it my best, no matter what time it is starting. If I have a difficult or long surgery, I prefer to schedule it first thing in the morning. I prefer to do a combination of complex and simple cases on any given day, rather than multiple long complex cases in one day. It depends on what your surgeon is accustomed to, and what he or she prefers.

A: First or Last Surgery of the Day

Every surgeon is different and has different preferences as to the time of day to perform surgery.  My energy level allows me to do surgery all day.  I thrive in the operating room. My focus, attention to detail and my mental stamina are magnified in the operating room atmosphere.

Is Light Sniffling and Nose Breathing OK 1 Day Post Op?

Hello, I am one day post op and was wondering if light sniffling and breathing out of my nose is ok to do? I am breathing out of my mouth as much as I can, but when dozing off to get some rest I noticed that I was breathing out of my nose. Also as soon as I got out of surgery I really didn't know what was going on so I took a deep sniffle, that ws the last time I sniffled deep. I just want to make sure I'm not doing or have done anything that could reallly affect my healing and outcome. Thank u.

A: Breathing through nose post rhinoplasty is fine Breathing through your nose is a natural response and when you fall asleep or resting with pain medications you will go back to this normal function. This will not hurt your result and you will be fine sniffling and breathing through your nose. If you need to sneeze try and remember to open your mouth and not sneeze completely through the nose. Sleep elevated and do not stress and you should be healing fine in no time. Wishing you a speedy recovery and best regards! Michael V. Elam, M.D.
