Nose Aesthetics

It comes to the agenda after nose surgeries, health problems or aesthetic concerns. It is possible to classify health problems under two groups

1. Structural disorders of the nose

Structural disorders in the nose prevent a person from breathing properly, and the nose loses its ability to perform this function. These possible problems significantly affect a person’s quality of life. These conditions may be genetic, or they may also occur with narrowing or blockage of the air ducts as a result of causes such as trauma.

2. Deformities of the nose

Deformities of the nose can also be caused by genetic causes, as well as by subsequent impact, fall or similar traumas, burns or various diseases. It is also possible that deformities can also cause psychological problems in a person. Rhinoplasty (Rhinoplasty) provides a partial or complete solution to these problems.

Nose surgeries performed for aesthetic reasons

Those who want to have nose surgery (Rhinoplasty) for aesthetic reasons usually request that the nose shapes that they think are not suitable for their facial structures be brought to the desired shape. In fact, although the patient’s request is taken into account before the rhinoplasty operation, the physician should be the main factor in choosing the most correct shape with his experience and medical knowledge. The doctor will make the choice that will look beautiful both aesthetically and will be surgically correct by taking the patient’s opinion.

In general, those who want to physically resemble popular people in society also refer to this person by resorting to plastic surgery. Since the nose is one of the most important points in facial aesthetics, these requests are also very common in nose surgeries. In these requests, the physician’s attitude should be to determine whether the patient really needs this aesthetic and, if necessary, to dissuade the patient from this operation. However, if there is a condition that really affects the person’s aesthetic appearance or prevents him from feeling well, rhinoplasty is performed.

The nose shape is selected with the proportions determined according to the structure of the face after the measurements are made. Although the nose is located right in the middle of the face, it is actually an organ that is not expected to attract attention. When we are having a face-to-face conversation, we communicate by looking at the other person’s eyes and lips, not looking at the nose. This situation shows us that the nose should be in a way that should not attract attention. For this reason, the purpose of rhinoplasty will be to get a natural-looking result suitable for the facial structure.

Who Can Get a Rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty operations are an operation that can be performed after the end of a person’s developmental age. It is necessary for the nose to take its final shape, and therefore it is essential that the development is completed. In addition, the psychological aspect of this development is also examined by specialists and experienced doctors.

What is Revision Rhinoplasty Surgery?

For people who have previously undergone rhinoplasty surgery, if they are not satisfied with the result, after consulting with their physicians and the physician’s approval, re-performing a rhinoplasty operation is called “Revision rhinoplasty”. Revision surgeries are more difficult than first-time nose surgeries because the nose was interfered with during previous surgeries.

What is Deviation (Curvature of the Nose) Surgery?

Curvature or deviation of the nose is seen in two ways. The type that concerns only the structures inside the nose is also seen. At the same time, there was also a kind that affected both internal and external structures and caused the appearance of curvature in the nose from the outside. Curvatures in this style can block the airway. However, nasal curvature does not always make breathing a problem. Insufficient intake of oxygen causes the organs to be unable to feed at the desired level. This condition, which also affects the sleep pattern, prevents a person from resting and causes a deterioration in the quality of life. After the examination and taking into account the patient’s complaint level, it is possible to achieve a better breathing and aesthetic appearance by correcting the curvatures present inside and outside.
