Where can I get a Rhinoplasty retainer?

Question

Hi guys! I had my nose done in turkey and the nostril retainers I am supposed to wear accidentally got thrown out. I was wondering if any of you knew how to get a New one or where to look.Getting one sent from turkey is apparently super complicated!!! Ughhhh :( Thanks!!!

There are many available on Amazon. The simplest one is just a cage that goes in each nostril called “mute”. It is used to prevent snoring but probably is similar to the one you are referring to.

Hello you can order this from internet or you can order it from Turkey but they are not necessary so on

Good Morning! I often make my own nostril retainers for each patient probably similar to your surgeon in Turkey. Substitutes that may be close would be nasal cones. These are often available at Walgreens or Amazon. They help to decrease snoring and work similar to a Breathe-Rite strip but inside the nostril. I would try one of those options first. Good luck!
