What Is Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a nose job, is a cosmetic and/or functional surgical procedure that alters the shape, size, or structure of the nose.

It may address:

• Nasal hump
• Wide or asymmetrical nose
• Drooping nasal tip
• Large nostrils
• Structural breathing issues

The goal is proportion and balance — not overcorrection.

Modern rhinoplasty focuses on preserving natural nasal anatomy while refining contour.

Who Is a Suitable Candidate for Rhinoplasty?

You may be a suitable candidate if:

• You are dissatisfied with the size or shape of your nose
• You have nasal asymmetry
• You experience breathing difficulties due to structural issues
• You are in good general health
• You have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes

A comprehensive facial analysis determines the most appropriate surgical approach.

How Is Rhinoplasty Performed in Istanbul?

Rhinoplasty is typically performed under general anesthesia.

Procedure overview:

• A small incision may be made across the columella (open technique) or inside the nostrils (closed technique)
• The nasal skin is carefully elevated
• Bone and cartilage are reshaped or repositioned
• Structural support is preserved or reinforced when necessary
• The incision is closed with fine sutures

Surgery duration is approximately 2–3 hours.

Modern techniques prioritize structural integrity and natural contour.

Recovery & Aftercare

Precision Nose Reshaping

Rhinoplasty reshapes the nasal bones and cartilage to improve both facial harmony and the overall appearance of the nose.

Overnight Hospital Stay

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and patients typically stay in the hospital for one night for observation.

Nasal Splint and Tampons

After surgery, nasal tampons and a protective splint are placed to support the new structure of the nose during the early healing phase.

Gradual Return to Activity

Most patients return to work in about one week, while strenuous exercise is usually recommended after about one month.

Safety and Long-Term Outcomes

When performed by experienced plastic surgeons in accredited hospitals in Istanbul, rhinoplasty is considered safe and well-established.

Long-term results depend on:

• Surgical precision
• Skin thickness
• Healing response
• Postoperative care

While visible improvements appear within weeks, final contour may take up to one year to fully settle.

The aim is natural facial harmony, not artificial alteration.

Frequently Asked Questions

3How long does swelling last?
Initial swelling improves within weeks. Subtle residual swelling may take several months to fully resolve. Final results may take up to one year to fully refine.
4Is rhinoplasty painful?
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia. Postoperative discomfort is typically manageable with prescribed medication.
