Rhinoplasty procedure Turkey

Nose surgery is an outpatient cosmetic surgery procedure performed under general anesthesia. Plastic surgeons in Turkey employ one of two techniques when performing rhinoplasty surgery in Turkey.

During the procedure, the surgeon will make an incision inside the nose or across the base of the nose. Through the incisions, the skin is gently raised and the inner bone and cartilage are reshaped. Once the structure of the nose is corrected to the desired shape, nasal skin and tissue are redrapped and incisions are closed. 

The entire nose surgery procedure in Istanbul typically lasts one to two hours. It is recommended to stop smoking and avoid taking certain medications such as blood thinners etc. at least 1 week before the surgery.

Techniques of nose surgery in Istanbul

Closed rhinoplasty

In a closed rhinoplasty surgical technique, the plastic surgeon makes the incisions within the nostrils.

Open rhinoplasty

In an open rhinoplasty, the incisions are placed across the columella, the tissue between the nostrils.

Using both rhinoplasty surgical methods, the plastic surgeons gently lift the soft tissues covering the nose. They then contour the bone and cartilage to the desired shape. Any additional cartilage can be used to augment the nose, which is often taken from the septum, or occasionally from the cartilage behind the ear.

Rhinoplasty for a bulbous nose

Many patients turn to rhinoplasty in Turkey to correct the bulbous. Most nose surgery patients with a bulbous nasal tip see their nose as being too wide or too big.

Correcting the bulbous nasal tip with a rhinoplasty surgery in Istanbul entails enhancing and reconfiguring small cartilage edges—along with suturing methods—to create a sharper yet natural nasal tip.

Plastic surgeons sometimes resort to thinning the nasal tip skin for thicker-skinned patients. This technique promises a stable long-term functional and aesthetic result.  

Rhinoplasty for a wide nose

Another common concern among nose surgery patients is an overly wide nose. A wide nose tends to be flat, without a prominent projection from the face. Additionally, the shape of the internal nasal structure often restricts airflow, making patients more susceptible to several medical issues including snoring and sleep apnea.  

Plastic surgeons employ special techniques of nose surgery to narrow the nose at the bridge by chiseling away the bones in order to thin it out. This can be accomplished with the help of small incisions placed on the outside of the nasal tip, hidden in the crease of the nose to reduce the size of the nostrils.
