I'm having septo-rhinoplasty and chin reduction done soon. 35F, generally healthy and no known issues with blood clotting etc. My only real issue has always been IBS-M (at least that's what my GP suspects). I need magnesium citrate, fiber supplements and prune juice on a regular basis. Prunes however are really high in salicylates. I will ask my surgeon of course, but what do you tell your patients? Do you find foods high in salicylates pose a high risk of bleeding before surgery?

Answer: Consider stopping prunes until after surgery.
In general, revision rhinoplasty should be reserved for severe dissatisfaction with somebody's nasal appearance after previous surgery, or nasal obstruction after previous surgery. If you are seeing an indentation, or a crease, depending on your examination, microdroplet Silikon-1000 maybe...
Hello! Thank you for your question.
As far as I can understand from your question.Having thick skin is not an obstacle for rhinoplasty, but the healing process may take 1.5 to 2 years depending on the thin and normal skin structure.
It would be better face to face consultation.
Best Regards!
