Old Fractured Nose

Old Fractured Nose is a break or crack in a bone in your nose, often the bone over the bridge of your nose from severe accident which can cause serious breathing problems and crooked appearance that you might probably consider rhinoplasty. This is the procedure that surgeons most often make use of in order to fix patient’s nose and restore it to its former appearance. If you are unhappy of the results after the surgery, you can go for a revision rhinoplasty, where the surgeon can rectify the work done on your nose previously to have it restored to how it was originally was.

An incision through the outer nose is rarely required, since access can be gained through the nostrils. However, the septum will be incised to begin the reshaping process. The septum is straightened through partial removal or readjustment of the affected bone and cartilage. Cartilage will be incised, shaved, or sliced to make the septum lie in the middle of the nasal vault. Sometimes the cartilage in a malformed septum is altered until it is sufficiently weakened, and then the septum is built up again with autologous cartilage from another site in the individual's body. Bone is removed rather than shaped. The goal is always to correct the deformity while supporting the nose structure. In some cases, septoplasty will be done at the same time as reshaping of the outer nose (rhinoplasty).

Preparation before Surgery:

Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
Blood and urine samples will be collected for routine preoperative laboratory tests. X-rays may be taken to evaluate the individual's bone structure.
Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

Deviated Nose ( Septosplasty)

Deviated Nose (Septoplasty) is an operation to correct a deformity of the nasal septum. The usual purpose is to improve nasal breathing, but it may also be performed to allow adequate examination of the inside of the nose for treatment of polyps, inflammation, tumors, or bleeding. When the nasal septum is deformed, there is no medicine that will cause it to be straightened, so surgery is the only solution to this problem.
A small incision is made inside the nose. The mucosal lining of the septum is detached from the cartilage and bones of the septum. The deviated portions of the septum are removed or straightened. The nasal lining mucous membrane is replaced.

Duration of the operation:

Septoplasty surgery to straighten the septum or remove the obstructing anatomy takes about an hour of operation.

Post operative Care:
Splints or packs are placed in the nose for a few days to help the septum to heal into its new position. These splints / packs have a straw that allows the patient to breathe from the nose and makes swallowing much easier. There are no external bruises or swelling of the eyes because the outer nasal bones are not broken or interfered with as in cosmetic nasal surgery. If an antibiotic is prescribed then it should be strictly followed to prevent infection. Saline irrigation of the nasal cavity helps in speeding up healing process.

Recovery period:
The septoplasty recovery time normally ranges from one week to three weeks. Patient is advised to blow his nose only after a day or two and that too very gently. Only after a week or two are patients asked to blow their nose normally.

Possible risk and complications:

The undesirable results that may occur include: a hole in the septum, failure to completely improve breathing, bleeding (usually easy to control), wound infection, nasal crusting, and very rarely, a change in appearance. There are risks with all surgical procedures. You should discuss all risks with your cosmetic surgeon.

Anesthesia used:
The procedure is performed with local, IV sedation or general anesthesia.

Hospital admission:
The patient can be discharge from the hospital on the same day of the surgery.

Preparation before Surgery:

Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

Alar Resection

Alar Resection is a cosmetic surgery procedure of the nose that narrows the wide flaring and large opening of the nasal nostrils.
The alar of the nose is reduced and suture in its position, aim is to make the balance of nasal tip and alar of the nose.

Duration of the operation:

The procedure usually takes around 1 hour.

Post-Operative Care
Splint the nasal tip with 3-4 mm thin strips of waterproof tape. Steri-Strips also can be used. Run the strips along each side of the nose and gently wrap them under and around the tip. As all sutures are absorbable, none require removal. Revision surgery should not be considered before at least 6 months have elapsed since the original operation.

Recovery period:
Normally, you will feel some pain and discomfort at the nose area during the first days after the operation but it can be alleviated by the medications prescribed. After 2 or 3 days, you will feel no pain but swelling in the nose and eyelid area will persist. Swelling and bruising around the eyes will start to disappear within a week and will completely subside for about 2 weeks. You can go back to work after 1 or 2 weeks, but avoid strenuous activities that can increase pressure to the face, which can prolong swelling and bruising for the next 2 to 3 weeks. After the removal of the bandage and stitches, the patient must take care of her/his nose not to be injured until it is completely healed. The frames of glasses should not be allowed to rest on the bridge of the nose for three weeks. A little bleeding is common during the first few days following surgery; patient may continue to feel some stuffiness for several weeks. Patient must try not to blow nose for a week or so, while the tissues heal.

Possible risks and complications:

Serious complications are rare. The most common complication is patient dissatisfaction. Other complications include: hematoma, airway obstruction, injury to the nose, infection, excessive swelling and bleeding.

Anesthesia:
Using IV sedation (medicine administered through an IV) and local anesthesia (numbing medication administered in the surgical area)

Hospital admission:
The patient can be discharge from the hospital on the same day of the surgery.

Preparation before Surgery:

Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

Tip Plasty and Tip Graft

Tip Plasty and Tip Graft may be performed to reduce a large, square, or bulbous nasal tip, to treat an upturned or sagging nasal tip, or just to change the appearance of the nasal tip.
The surgery includes realignment of the alar cartilage by resection and suture, fibroareolar and subcutaneous tissue, tip graft and columellar strut. The nasal tip is positioned high and elegant,methods such as cartilage suture, cartilage grafting and blocking the nasal septum.

Duration of the procedure:

The procedure usually takes around 1 hour depending on the surgical treatment and the extent of reshaping required.

Post operative care:
You will feel some pain and discomfort at the nose area during the first days after surgery but can be alleviated by medications prescribed. Expect some bruising and swelling during first few days and will usually subside in about 1 week.

Recovery period:
The typical recovery would be around 3 weeks. Sutures are removed within 10 days after the procedure.

Possible risks and complications:

These are complication free. However, all grafts have potential for asymmetry and migration. Although this may seem like a simple operation because it involves such a small area, a tip plasty may be one of the most challenging aspects of nose surgery. Disruption of the cartilage that supports the tip of the nose can cause the tip to collapse, rotate or lose projection; therefore tip plasty should be performed by an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon.

Anesthesia use:
This procedure is generally under local or general anesthesia.

Hospital admission:
The patient can be discharge from the hospital on the same day of the surgery.

Preparation before surgery:

Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

Augmented Rhinoplasty

Augmented Rhinoplasty is very common among Asians and non-Caucasians to correct a flat nose with a round bulbous tip and flaring nostrils. The aim is to build an aesthetically pleasing nasal bridge with an elegant projection and well defined nasal tip, and at the same time narrow the flaring nostril base. An implant is usually used. The implanted material is biocompatible and extremely safe.
Incisions are made inside the rim of the nostrils. Soft tissues of the nose are then separated from the underlying structure to create the appropriate space for nose implant projecting the nasal tip and increase the height of the nose.

Duration of the procedure:

Rhinoplasty generally takes about 1 to 2 hours to complete.

Post operative care:
The nose will be covered with either plaster or a light metal or plastic splint to maintain the position of the nasal bones. You will feel some pain and discomfort at the nose area during the first days after surgery but can be alleviated by medications prescribed.

Recovery period:
Most nose augmentation patients are able to return to school or work after surgery within 2 days. However it will be about 2 weeks you’re entirely healed.

Possible risks and complications:

Rhinoplasty will provide significant improvements in the appearance of the nose for the vast majority of patients although, in occasional cases, a secondary correction may be required. There are risks with all surgical procedures, including infection or nose bleeding.

Anesthesia use:
Using IV sedation (medicine administered through an IV) and local anesthesia (numbing medication administered in the surgical area)

Hospital admission:
It depends on your preferences as well as your surgeon’s. Augmented Rhinoplasty can be performed on an out patient basis, in the hospital, or in an ambulatory surgical suite.

Preparation before Surgery

Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

Reduction Rhinoplasty

Reduction Rhinoplasty is for patients who have prominent large noses with oversized bridges and depressed nasal tips. It aims to create a well balanced nose by reducing the dorsal hump, narrowing the bridge, improving the nasal tip projection and definition.
The incisions are placed on the rim of the alar of nose. Soft tissues of the nose are then separated from the underlying structures, the bone and cartilage are then reshaped and the skin re-draped over the surface. Patients who have a deviated septum may benefit by correction of this problem at the time of surgery.

Duration of the operation:

The procedure usually takes about 1-2 hours.

Recovery period:
You can go back to work or return to school within 2 days following surgery and will take about 1-2 weeks until it will be completely healed.

Possible risks and complications:

When Nose Reduction is performed by a qualified plastic surgeon, complications are infrequent and usually minor. Nevertheless, there is always a possibility of complications, including infection, nosebleed, or a reaction to the anesthesia. You can reduce your risks by closely following your surgeon's instructions both before and after surgery. After surgery, small burst blood vessels may appear as tiny red spots on the skin's surface; these are usually minor but may be permanent. As for scarring, when Nose Reduction is performed from inside the nose, there is no visible scarring at all; when an "open" technique is used, or when the procedure calls for the narrowing of flared nostrils, the small scars on the base of the nose are usually not visible.

Anesthesia:
Local anesthesia with mild sedation

Hospital admission:
It depends on your preferences as well as your surgeon’s. Reduction Rhinoplasty can be performed on an out patient basis, in the hospital, or in an ambulatory surgical suite.

Preparation before Surgery

Assessment of the medical history (any allergies, serious medical condition and all medications taken both prescribed and non-prescribed), physical examination, and laboratory tests will be performed during consultation.
Smoking must be avoided for about 3-4 weeks prior to surgery, as nicotine interferes with circulation and will greatly affect healing process.
You will likely to be asked to stop drinking alcohol, a week before the surgery and throughout your recovery period.
Avoid taking any medications such as hormones, anticoagulants, anabolic steroids and supplements at least 4-6 weeks to prevent complicating medical factors prior to surgery. Avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements as they can increase bleeding.

How to Choose A Certified Plastic/Cosmetic Surgeon?

When choosing a plastic surgeon, it is important to consider a number of factors. Medical training and surgical experience are primary indicators of the surgeon’s qualifications. Board certification is another important criterion. No single factor can guarantee you the best doctor for a specific procedure. Ultimately, it is up to you to decide which surgeon is best for your specific goals and expectations.

To become a plastic surgeon, a doctor must obtain an M.D. (Doctor of Medicine) or a DO (Doctor of Osteopathy) degree. Following this, there are several paths the doctor may follow. Many doctors now spend five to six years in an integrated plastic surgery residency, although some complete three years of general surgery and two years in plastic surgery.

What does it mean to be a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon?

Choosing a Board certified surgeon can be a very tough job because of the personal information being shared. Just open the yellow pages, magazines, brochures or view news paper advertisements and you’ll find plastic surgeons promoting all kinds of society memberships and board certifications but don’t be confused between boards and societies. Societies are merely professional associations. Board certification is the minimum criterion you should use in selecting a plastic surgeon. So, it is very important that you learn about the doctor’s education, training, certification, and experience in order to guarantee a successful outcome and to make the best choice.

Beware of lots of Letters after the Doctor’s Name:
Many fraudulent doctors’ have quite a few letters after their names. In fact, multiple letters may be the telltale sign of an inadequately trained doctor trying to impress the public. Definitely, your doctor should have the letters M.D (Medical Doctor) or D.O (Doctor of Osteopathy) after his name. He might even have one or more master’s degrees or might also have PhD but these degrees are irrelevant to plastic surgery. Patients are advised to select a board certified plastic surgeon.

Guide to choose a Plastic Surgeon:

Get Referrals: Begin your search for a plastic surgeon by asking friends, relatives, family doctor, colleagues that are willing to meet with you and share their results of the surgery. Hospital staff such as nurses, surgeons and anesthesiologist is also excellent sources of referrals. You may also do research on the internet, magazines, or in the yellow pages. Chances are a few names will stand out from the others. It will help give you the best possible recommendations.

Check the qualifications of the surgeon: One of the most important qualifications you should look for in a plastic surgeon is that they are board certified but you must need to know what board has certified your plastic surgeon and be sure that the surgeon has graduated from an accredited medical school.

Meet the surgeon: Look at pictures of past procedures done by the surgeon. Choose an ethical and confident surgeon and friendly staff members for a long lasting relationship and you should expect good communication, understanding and comfort from the surgeon.
