Does anyone have any tips on washing my hair day 2 post-op rhinoplasty without getting my cast wet? (I hate baths!)

Hi Imaginative,We have our patients have someone help them shampoo their hair after rhinoplasty.  Over a sink with your face facing up toward the the ceiling.  You can also go to a salon and have them wash your hair.  Good luck with your rhinoplasty and be well.Dr. P

You can try washing your hair from behind, so as to limit the amount of water that may reach your nasal splint (cast).  I would check with your particular surgeon to find out what aftercare instructions they may want you to follow.  

  It is probably best  to check in with your operative surgeon about what their suggestions are about keeping the cast dry after a rhinoplasty.  Most patients wash their hair in a sink while keeping the cast dry.
