Nose Job

The patient should not lower his head for several days after a nose job surgery. There is a possibility of bleeding within a few days after rhinoplasty, which must be controlled with the help of sterile gas. The patient is expected to have a headache in the first days after surgery so he can use pain relievers. After nose job surgery, especially during the first 24 hours after rhinoplasty, the face may swell, especially in the nose area and eyelids, and in some cases, bruises may appear under the eyes. But most of these symptoms disappear within 2-3 weeks. The patient can reduce these symptoms by applying cold compresses or ice to the eyes indirectly (inside the fabric). The patient should stay in the hospital for one day only (and in some cases, the doctor will decide if there is a need to keep the patient during the night also in the hospital). Tampons are removed from the nose on the same day of surgery or a day or two after surgery. Gypsum is removed after a week. Nose job recovery time is about 10 to 14 days during which strenuous activity, rubbing the nose, or shocks should be avoided. It is recommended to refrain from excessive exposure to sunlight for a period of 3 months, and it is not permissible to wear glasses, except in cases of necessity, for a period of one month. The process of completing the formation of the appearance of the nose after a nose job is a long and personal process. The nose reaches its final appearance only after several months and even a year.
