Rhinoseptoplasty – is a unique procedure that combines two goals: aesthetic correction of the nose shape (rhinoplasty) and restoration or improvement of breathing functions through nasal septum correction (septoplasty). This approach allows patients not only to enhance their appearance but also significantly improve their quality of life by achieving free breathing.
What Is Rhinoseptoplasty?
Rhinoseptoplasty is a combined surgical procedure aimed at correcting nasal septum defects (such as deviations caused by trauma or congenital anomalies) and reshaping the nose to achieve facial harmony. It is one of the most sought-after procedures in plastic surgery as it helps solve both medical and aesthetic problems.
When Is Rhinoseptoplasty Recommended?
Rhinoseptoplasty may be recommended in the following cases:
-
Aesthetic Indications:
- Irregularities in the nasal bridge.
- Long, wide, or excessively narrow nose.
- Nasal hump or asymmetry.
- Collapsed or wide nostrils.
-
Medical Indications:
- Deviated nasal septum causing difficulty in breathing.
- Chronic nasal conditions such as rhinitis or sinusitis associated with impaired airway function.
- Snoring and sleep apnea caused by nasal passage obstructions.
- Consequences of nasal trauma, including fractures.
How Is the Procedure Performed?
-
Consultation and Planning:
During the initial consultation, the surgeon assesses the anatomy of the nose and the condition of the nasal septum. The patient’s preferences are considered, and an individualized surgical plan is created. -
Anesthesia:
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure the patient’s comfort. -
Surgical Intervention:
- Septoplasty: The surgeon corrects deviations in the nasal septum and improves nasal airway patency.
- Rhinoplasty: The surgeon reshapes the nose, focusing on achieving facial harmony.
-
Procedure Completion:
Incisions are sutured using fine stitches, and the nose is secured with a special dressing or splint to maintain its new shape.
Recovery Period
After rhinoseptoplasty, mild swelling and bruising around the nose and eyes may occur, typically subsiding within 1–2 weeks. Full recovery takes about 4–6 months, although breathing improvement and aesthetic results are noticeable within a few weeks. It is essential to follow the doctor’s recommendations:
- Avoid physical exertion for 2–3 weeks.
- Wear a supportive dressing.
- Refrain from injuring the nose and avoid exposure to hot water.
Benefits of Rhinoseptoplasty
- Aesthetic Perfection: Facial harmony is achieved through precise nose reshaping.
- Free Breathing: Correcting the deviated nasal septum helps patients breathe more easily.
- Multitasking: Addressing two issues in one procedure.
- Improved Quality of Life: Free breathing enhances overall well-being, eliminates snoring, and promotes better sleep quality.
