Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is one of the most requested cosmetic procedures worldwide. In Turkey, rhinoplasty has gained global popularity due to surgeon expertise and advanced surgical approaches.
The goal of rhinoplasty is not to dramatically change the face, but to improve facial harmony by refining the shape and proportions of the nose.
What Can Rhinoplasty Correct?
Rhinoplasty can address both aesthetic and functional concerns such as:
Nasal hump
Wide nasal bridge
Drooping nasal tip
Asymmetry
Breathing difficulties
Modern rhinoplasty techniques focus on preserving natural facial identity while improving balance.
Open vs Closed Rhinoplasty
Two main techniques are used in nose reshaping surgery.
Open Rhinoplasty
Allows greater visibility for complex corrections and structural changes.
Closed Rhinoplasty
All incisions are made inside the nostrils, leaving no visible scars.
The choice of technique depends on the patient’s anatomy and desired outcome.
Recovery Timeline
Typical recovery includes:
Splint removal after 7 days
Swelling gradually decreasing over several weeks
Final refined results appearing within 6–12 months
Rhinoplasty results are long-lasting and can significantly enhance facial balance.
