A nose job, medically known as rhinoplasty, is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries worldwide and has become especially sought after in Turkey. This transformative procedure not only enhances the aesthetic appearance of the nose but also helps resolve medical issues such as breathing difficulties, deviated septum, or nasal fractures.
At his private clinic in Izmir, Op. Dr. Mehmet Durmuşoğlu, an experienced otolaryngologist who has performed thousands of successful operations, combines cutting-edge technologies with surgical expertise to achieve natural yet aesthetic results.
Dr. Durmuşoğlu specializes in Ultrasonic (Piezo) Rhinoplasty, Revision Rhinoplasty, Nose Tip Surgery, Septum Deviation Correction, Turbinate Surgery, Nostril Reduction, and Male Rhinoplasty. His philosophy is to ensure every patient not only looks their best but also feels comfortable and confident after the procedure.
What is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a nose job, is a surgical intervention that reshapes and resizes the nose. The procedure allows changes to:
- Nose length and width
- The nasal tip, bridge, and nostrils
- The angle between the nose and upper lip
- Crookedness caused by genetics or trauma
Rhinoplasty can be performed for purely cosmetic reasons, or to improve functionality by correcting breathing problems and alleviating conditions such as snoring.
Who is a Candidate for a Nose Job?
Individuals may seek rhinoplasty for different reasons:
- Dissatisfaction with the shape, size, or symmetry of their nose
- Presence of congenital abnormalities such as dorsal humps or nasal asymmetry
- Past injuries that caused deformities
- Breathing difficulties due to a deviated septum (treated with Septoplasty)
At Dr. Durmuşoğlu’s clinic, each surgery plan is personalized to ensure harmony with your facial features and functional improvements when needed.
Areas of the Nose That Can Be Corrected
- Bridge: Removal of excess bone and cartilage to smooth out humps
- Tip: Reshaping cartilage for a refined and natural appearance
- Length: Adjusting the septum to shorten or lengthen the nose
- Width: Repositioning nasal bones to achieve a narrower, more balanced look
Benefits of Nose Job with Dr. Durmuşoğlu
- Aesthetic refinement with a natural look
- Improved breathing by correcting structural problems
- Restoration of nasal symmetry after trauma or injury
- Minimally invasive techniques such as Ultrasonic (Piezo) Rhinoplasty for precision and faster healing
Dr. Durmuşoğlu’s approach is centered around creating results that enhance overall facial harmony without an artificial appearance.
Nose Job Surgery – What to Expect
- Duration: 1.5 to 3 hours
- Anesthesia: General anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation
- Hospital Stay: Typically 1 night (depending on the case)
- Recovery: Splint applied for 7–10 days, swelling reduces gradually within weeks, with the nose settling into its final shape over 6–12 months
Swelling is part of the healing process and occurs in stages:
- 4–6 weeks: Major swelling subsides
- 3 months: Nose shape becomes more defined
- 1 year: Final refined result
