Nose surgery | How many times can you perform this popular surgery?
Since the nose is the midpoint of the face, it is no surprise that rhinoplasty is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries. Rhinoplasty is one of the most challenging cosmetic surgeries due to the complexity of nasal fit and overall facial fit.
This surgery requires pre-arranged planning. If rhinoplasty is not successful and the person is not satisfied with the outcome of the surgery after one year, patients apply for secondary rhinoplasty. (In one study, 15% of patients don’t like their results). This reconstructive surgery requires great care and it’s challenges are far greater than the initial surgery.
The high complexity of rhinoplasty has led patients to seek the best rhinoplasty surgeon. On the other hand, this surgery has more limitations than primary surgery. Patients who are looking to achieve a 100% ideal result should keep this in mind.
Complications of reconstructive nose surgery:
After secondary nasal surgery, scar tissue forms around the nose. If the rhinoplasty technique is open, it will be much more severe. Damage to the soft tissues of the nose causes the skin to become weak and thin. The skin may become thinner and you may not be able to cover these problems.
Every time you perform a rhinoplasty, the restrictions increase. Repeated nasal surgeries can weaken the supporting tissue of the nose.
What is the difference between a primary and secondary rhinoplasty?
In primary rhinoplasty, the surgeon examines the problems of the nose. And based on the anatomy, he/she/them make the best and most appropriate changes for the nose; so that no problem arises for the person. Changes in primary surgery are more predictable. But in reconstructive surgery, the anatomy of the nose has changed; so it makes it more difficult for the surgeon to change the appearance of the nose.
Now, from the grafts that surgeons usually take from the person’s own body (cartilage of the ear or chest), they reconstructed the cartilage of the nose. In this way, they can restore the structure of the nose and make it well supported.
Due to the limited number of times to have a rhinoplasty, you need to keep in mind that if you want to have this surgery for the first time, be sure to see a qualified surgeon to check for all the shortcomings of the nose. And with one surgery, you can expect a perfect result.
Of course, depending on the patient’s age and the shape and anatomy of the nose, it may not be possible to create any shape for this organ; and it is not possible to achieve the desired result even in initial surgery. But as much as possible try to create an ideal and appropriate shape for it.
