Want to make sure I am fit, healthy and ready for my operation: How do I prepare before my rhinoplasty surgery? Any diet changes? Any lifestyle changes? Can I take certain supplements that will help with bruising, scarring, swelling? Any foods that help?

Answer: Your Doctor is your best advisor Each Doctor is different, and uses different methods. But first of all, you need to see a PS, have a consultation. Your Doctor is going to explain step by step what to do before and after surgery.
