Under sedation, typically general anesthesia, nose surgery is conducted as an outpatient procedure. Rhinoplasty encompasses diverse surgical techniques tailored to address your specific concerns, problems, and desires. Dr. Mang employs either a closed approach or an open method, aiming to reduce excess tissue and cartilage or enhance and add cartilage for reshaping. Your nose is repositioned, and the skin is meticulously reformed and draped over the newly enhanced framework. Sutures are strategically placed, either on the inside portion of the nose or in the natural external fold.

After your nose surgery, we'll ensure you rest comfortably in our soothing recovery area before our nurses release you for home recovery. Expect noticeable swelling and bruising around your nose and its surroundings in the initial days, often accompanied by discoloration under the eyes. To alleviate these effects, cold compresses and inflammatory medications are recommended. A follow-up meeting with Dr. Mang within the first several days is crucial for monitoring your healing progress. Typically, rhinoplasty recovery spans about 2 – 4 weeks, and it's vital to refrain from strenuous activity or exercise during this healing period.

How much does rhinoplasty cost?

Nose surgery is better for larger changes, long-lasting results, and to adjust the internal structure of the nose for better function.
