Questions From You
You can find answers to all your questions about the treatment process in this section. We also share real questions received from our patients along with Op. Dr. Behçet Şahin’s responses. Feel free to submit your own questions through the Ask a Question page, and we will be happy to answer them!
1When will I be able to breathe after rhinoplasty?
Hello. We remove the nasal splints during the 1st-week check-up after rhinoplasty. Once the splints and internal crusts are cleaned, you will be able to breathe comfortably.
2Can I have rhinoplasty if my nose has completed its development at age 15?
Hello. Scientifically, rhinoplasty can be performed after puberty—at a minimum of 17 years old for females and 18 years old for males. Age 15 is not suitable for rhinoplasty.
3I'm a bit scared about the post-surgery process. Will it prevent me from doing anything? Also, what happens if I have an accident in the future—will the nose deform easily? And could you tell me the price?
Hello.
Regarding your first question:
After rhinoplasty, you can eat, drink, and walk on the same day. You can return to your social life after resting for one day. You may experience mild swelling and bruising (depending on skin type, some patients have very little while others may have slightly more). You can return to work after 2 days (10 days for heavy physical jobs). You will not be significantly restricted in social activities. Your splints are removed in the first week, and generally my patients have minimal bruising and moderate swelling by that time. If you wish, you can watch our patients’ recent interview videos on my YouTube channel or on our gallery page. :)
Regarding your second question:
Even if you have not had rhinoplasty, your nose may still be affected or deformed in an accident. Therefore, whether you have rhinoplasty or not, it is always important to protect your nose from trauma.
