What type of nose do i have? what causes it to be in this shape? What has to be done for it to become straight? Thanks
If you're referring to the slightly low root of the nose and the small bump on top of the nose, a conventional rhinoplasty procedure will improve or correct these features.
i have a rhinoplasty scheduled for next week. my doctor said he will keep the splint on my face for 7 days, but my mom surprised me with a plane ticket out of state scheduled 4 days after my surgery. i prefer not to have my nose bandaged during my visit. so, my question is: would it be ok to remove my nasal splint after 4 days? the only work my my cosmetic surgeon will be doing on my nose is a tip reduction and slight rotation, and just shaving down the bridge. Thanks!
It is best to take your surgeon's advice regarding how long the nose needs to be splinted. i usually leave the splint in place for a full 7 days to keep the swelling down and maintain the proper position of the nasal bones if they are fractured. If the bones will not be fractured, I may shorten the time requirement for wearing a splint, but in your case, you should follow the instructions of your surgeon.
I am contemplating a rhinoplasty in addition to my scheduled breast lift. My plastic surgeon said it would be safe to do both and would start with the breast lift under twilight sedation, then move on to the rhinoplasty switching to general anethesia. Is this common and low risk on a healthy adult?
It is perfectly appropriate to undergo both a rhinoplasty and breast lift at the same time. The only question I have is why you would have part of the procedure under local and part under general anesthesia. I would recommend general anesthesia for the entire procedure, but you should have the opportunity to speak with the anesthesiologist before your procedure to clarify the details.
