The Rhinoplasty.

What is Rhinoplasty?

• Whether due to genetics or injury, many people
  simply don't like the look of their nose. With
  its location directly in the center of your face,
  your nose drastically influences what you look
  like. Maybe it's too bumpy, too large, lacking
  contour, or just out of proportion with the rest
  of your features. If you're not happy with the
  way your nose looks, it may affect how you feel
  about your overall appearance, and that can wear
  on you after a while.
• Rhinoplastyalso known as nose surgery, or more
  commonly, a nose jobmay be the solution. It's
  one of the most often requested and
  performed plastic surgery procedures. Rhinoplasty
  can not only reshape your nose and change your
  look, it can boost your self-esteem and increase
  your confidence.

What Does Rhinoplasty Correct?

• You already know Rhinoplasty changes your nose.
  But what specifically can it address? Everyone's
  body and face are different, so your concerns are
  unique. It's about much more than simply changing
  the size of your nose. Rhinoplasty will affect
  your facial appearance, and how others see and
  recognize you. It's imperative that the procedure
  be performed by a highly skilled surgeon who is
  able to produce your desired results by
  performing one or more of the following

1. Decrease the overall size of your nose
2. Increase the size or change the contour of your
   nose with a facial implant
3. Shorten the length of your nose
4. Narrow the width of your nostrils
5. Reduce the prominence of the tip of your nose
6. Remove a prominent bump on the bridge of your
   nose
7. Correct nasal birth defects
8. Fix injuries from sports or other activities
9. Correct breathing difficulties by repairing a
   deviated septum

What is Rhinoplasty Preparation?

• Any type of surgery requires you to take certain
  steps to help ensure your procedure goes as
  smoothly as possible. Not only that, doingor
  avoidingsome things can help you heal more
  quickly, while also reducing the risk of
  complications.
• Rhinoplasty preparation is exactly what is sounds
  like. Before you have a Rhinoplasty, we highly
  recommend you take the time to prepare for the
  procedure, and for your recovery period. Aside
  from the health benefits, your mind will be much
  more at ease knowing you're ready for your
  surgery, and for the next few weeks of healing.

Surgery Blood Work

• The first item on the list to prepare for
  rhinoplasty is blood work. Before you have
  surgery, we need to make sure your hemoglobin,
  electrolytes, creatine, and INR (blood clotting
  ability) are all within normal levels. There's no
  need to fast before these blood tests.
• We don't perform blood work in our clinic, so
  when you come in to TCC for your initial
  assessment, we'll provide you with a requisition
  form to take to the lab of your choice. We can
  also provide you with lab recommendations, if
  necessary.
• If you're over 50 years of age, you'll also need
  to have an electrocardiogram (ECG / EKG) to
  ensure your heart is functioning normally.
• If your blood levels are out of normal range, or
  your EKG reveals any concerns, we'll contact you
  to discuss the next steps.

Two Weeks Before Surgery

• Your Rhinoplasty preparation begins two weeks
  out. If you get an early start, you won't be
  rushing at the last minute. Early preparation
  will also help ensure the necessary arrangements
  go smoothly.
• Two weeks before surgery, you'll need to arrange
  for
• a friend or loved one to drive you home from the
  clinic on the day of your surgery.
• a friend or loved one to stay with you for at
  least the first 24 hours after surgery.
• childcare, if necessary.
• pet care, if necessary.

• You'll also need to make a few temporary changes
  two weeks before your surgery.
• Do not drink alcohol.Alcohol thins your blood,
  which will prolong healing and increase bruising.
  Drink water instead to hydrate and nourish your
  body.
• Do not smoke.Nicotine will prolong your
  recovery, and increases your chances of
  post-surgical complications. We also recommend
  you try to quit smoking altogether to avoid
  health problems in the future.
• Do not take aspirin or ibuprofen.These drugs
  interfere with the bodys normal blood clotting
  ability. If you have a headache or other pain,
  take acetaminophen (Tylenol) instead.

9

• Do not take herbal supplements.Several herbal
  supplements such as St. Johns wort, ginkgo
  biloba, green tea extract, ginseng, and garlic
  can interact negatively with anesthesia. We
  highly recommend you stop taking all herbal
  supplements two weeks prior to surgery.The only
  herbal product we recommend using prior to or
  after your surgery is arnica cream or ointment.
  This plant-based product is often used to reduce
  inflammation, soothe muscle aches, and heal
  wounds.

One Week Before Surgery

• As the day of your surgery approaches, you may
  want to cook and freeze meals for easy
  preparation while you're recovering.
• You'll also want to go shopping to have the
  following items on hand
• lip balm, refrigerated beverages, and dry mouth
  lozenges your mouth will get very dry because
  you'll have to breathe through it
• Laxative or stool softener (narcotic pain
  medication may cause constipation)

11

• Pick-up tool to help you retrieve things from the
  floor without having to bend
• Shirts that button in the front (to avoid having
  to pull anything over your face)
• Comfortable robe and/or pajamas
• Entertainment such as books, magazines, and
  movies to help keep you occupied while you rest

12

• Food fruit
• prepared meals (if you choose not to cook your
  own)
• saltine crackers
• gelatin or pudding
• soup
• Make sure all foods are low in sodium so as not
  to increase fluid retention and swelling.

13
Night Before Surgery

• The tasks you perform the night before surgery
  are some of the most important for rhinoplasty
  preparation.
• Bathe and wash your hair you may not be able to
  bathe for a few days to avoid getting your
  bandages wet.
• Do not eat or drink anything during the final
  eight hours prior to your surgery. This includes
  sips of water and chewing gum.
• If your stomach is not completely empty, there's
  a chance you could regurgitate while you're under
  general anesthesia. If this happens, food or
  water could enter your lungs.
• If you eat or drink within eight hours before
  surgery, the procedure will have to be canceled
  for your own safety.

14
Day of Surgery

• A few final tasks will help you prepare for
  rhinoplasty, and help everything go as smoothly
  as possible.
• Do not wear any jewelry, makeup or contact
  lenses.
• Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Shirts that zip
  or button in front are preferred.
• We'll provide you with detailed pre-operative
  instructions before your surgery, and your
  surgeon will also give you instructions and
  recommendations. Following all of these
  instructions will help ensure your comfort, avoid
  complications, and speed your healing.
