Understanding Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is a surgical procedure performed to improve the shape, size, and function of the nose. It can be done for aesthetic reasons, functional breathing problems, or both.
Medically, rhinoplasty reshapes nasal bones, cartilage, and soft tissue to achieve facial harmony while preserving or improving nasal airflow.
Rhinoplasty is recommended for patients who are unhappy with the appearance of their nose, experience breathing difficulties, or have nasal deformities caused by trauma or congenital conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is rhinoplasty painful?expand_more
Pain is minimal and well controlled with medication. During the procedure, you'll be under general anesthesia, so you won't feel anything. After surgery, any discomfort is managed effectively with prescribed pain medications, and most patients report minimal pain during recovery.
How long should I stay in Turkey?expand_more
7–10 days is recommended. This allows time for the surgery, initial recovery in the hospital, splint removal, post-operative check-ups, and ensures you're cleared by your surgeon before traveling home.
Will there be scars?expand_more
Scars are minimal and usually invisible. In closed rhinoplasty, all incisions are made inside the nostrils, so there are no visible external scars. In open rhinoplasty, a small incision is made across the columella (the tissue between the nostrils), which heals to become virtually invisible over time.
Are results permanent?expand_more
Yes, rhinoplasty results are permanent. Once the nose has fully healed and the final shape is established (typically 6–12 months after surgery), the changes to the bone and cartilage structure are lasting. However, natural aging and other factors may cause subtle changes over many years.
When can I fly back?expand_more
After final doctor approval (usually day 7–10). Your surgeon will conduct a final check-up, remove the splint, and assess your recovery progress. Once cleared, typically around day 7–10, you'll receive approval to travel home safely.
