Ultrasonic rhinoplasty surgery offers significant advantages in the healing process as it is a less invasive technique compared to traditional rhinoplasty methods. Thanks to this innovative approach, patients experience a faster and more comfortable recovery process. So, how does the healing process work after ultrasonic rhinoplasty and what should be taken into consideration?
- First Days After Surgery
After ultrasonic rhinoplasty, patients may experience some swelling and bruising immediately following surgery. However, these symptoms are generally less severe compared to traditional rhinoplasty, thanks to the more precise and tissue-friendly nature of ultrasonic devices. Swelling and bruising are expected to decrease in the first few days. Prescribed painkillers help relieve possible discomfort during this period.
- Use of Nasal Splint or Plaster
After the surgery, your surgeon will place a splint or cast on the nose to support and maintain its new shape. This brace is usually worn for a week. During this time, it is important to protect the face and be careful to avoid damaging or dislodging the splint. After the splint is removed, the nose will gradually begin to regain its final shape.
- Return to Daily Activities and Rest
One of the most important points to consider during the recovery process is the restriction of physical activities. After surgery, patients should avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting and contact sports for a few weeks. Otherwise, the healing process of the nose may be negatively affected and complications may arise. Your doctor will give you detailed information about when you can return to your daily activities.
- Follow-up Appointments and Progress Tracking
During the healing process, regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled with your surgeon. These appointments are of great importance to check whether the healing in the nose is progressing correctly and to detect possible problems at an early stage. Your doctor will help you complete your recovery in the best possible way by giving you special recommendations during this process.
- Achieving Final Results
Final results after ultrasonic rhinoplasty appear within a few weeks to a few months. Although most of the swelling has subsided within the first week after the surgery, it may be necessary to wait a few months for the nose to take its final shape and for the fine details to settle. Being patient throughout this process and following your doctor’s recommendations will help you achieve the desired aesthetic results.
Faster Recovery Advantage
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty also offers advantages during the healing process as it is a less traumatic surgical technique. A faster recovery process, minimal swelling and bruising, and a pain-free period can be experienced. However, for a successful recovery process, it is extremely important to strictly follow your doctor’s instructions and follow the healing process carefully.
