Answer: Rhinoplasty Diabetics can undergo rhinoplasty safely. Your glucose can be monitored while you are under anesthesia to make sure it doesn’t go too low.

Answer: You are rhinoplasty surgery should not be affected. You are correct that patients with diabetes, have an increase risk of wound healing and increased risk of infection. However, this would be extremely rare in a rhinoplasty as the nasal tissues have such an excellent blood supply. Discuss this with your plastic surgeon, but I feel that you can proceed with confidence that this will not affect your rhinoplasty surgery.
