What you need to know about Rhinoplasty in Johannesburg

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as the “nose job,” is plastic surgery to change the shape of the nose and to improve its function. This procedure can be performed for medical and cosmetic reasons. Those with breathing problems caused by a birth defect, deviated septum, sinusitis, or an injury to the nose, as well as those who are not happy with the appearance of their nose, can undergo rhinoplasty.

Rhinoplasty has a number of benefits. However, the most compelling reason for patients to have this surgery is to improve the appearance of their noses, which can boost their self-esteem significantly. Besides altering the form and size of your nose, the procedure can also strengthen the bridge, narrow the nostrils, and reshape the tip.

While anyone can undergo rhinoplasty, teenagers are advised to wait until their nose has reached its adult size.

What's the Recovery Time for Rhinoplasty Procedures in Johannesburg?

You generally need to wait at least 2 to 3 weeks until you can resume most of your normal activities. However, you should not perform any strenuous activities, such as intense exercise, for about 3 to 6 weeks. During the first few days after the surgery, you will experience some swelling around your eyes, but these will subside within 3 to 14 days. You will also have to wear a nasal splint for about a week following the surgery.

What's the Success Rate of Rhinoplasty Procedures in Johannesburg?

Rhinoplasty is considered one of the most complicated facial cosmetic surgeries. However, thanks to the advances in technology and surgeons’ extensive experience, the procedure has a very high success rate of between 85% and 90%.

Although rhinoplasty is generally safe, it does carry some potential risks of complications and side effects, including bleeding, infection, allergic reaction to the anesthesia, permanent numbness in your nose, difficulty breathing through the nose, an uneven-looking nose, discoloration, persisting pain, scarring, septal perforation, and a need for additional surgery.
