Where is the incision for nose base augmentation? What should be paid attention to after nose base augmentation surgery?

Rhinoplasty is a very common plastic surgery. It can make our nose bridge look more upright and has a good cosmetic effect. It can also raise the nose in the entire face.

On both sides of the nose, the incision for nose base filling is generally located at the inner edge of one nostril. Avoid getting it wet when washing your face after surgery. Nose base filling surgery can solve the problem of facial depression and improve protruding mouth. The base part of the nose (mainly refers to the external nose, which is the part of the nose that can be seen from the outside) connected to the upper lip. The height of the nose base mainly refers to the height in the same direction as the columella (sagittal, meaning the front and back direction); after the nose base is padded, the side will have a more three-dimensional feel, and the overall feeling of the nose on the entire face can also be raised.

1. Avoid getting the wound wet after surgery, avoid rubbing the base of the nose hard, and avoid bending over and lowering your head.

2. Avoid exaggerated lip expressions within 1 week after the operation, talk as little as possible, and avoid laughing and yawning.

3. Avoid tobacco, alcohol, fish, shrimp, and spicy food within 1 week after the operation.

4. It is normal for edema, cyanosis, and congestion to occur in the surgical area after surgery. Most of them will gradually disappear after 1-2 weeks. If you find swelling, congestion, increased pain, bleeding, etc., please contact your doctor immediately.

5. Local numbness or insensitivity of the lips may occur after the operation, which generally recovers gradually in about half a year.

6. To avoid displacement and penetration of the implant, avoid exaggerated expressions within 3 months. If displacement, penetration, infection, etc. occur, please contact a doctor immediately.

The swelling will start to subside one week after the operation, and it will be completely healed in 1-3 months. The swelling after rhinoplasty generally subsides in about a week, and the sutures will be removed seven days after the rhinoplasty, and you can basically recover. You can see a perfect new image after one month, and you can completely recover to your natural appearance 1-3 months after the operation.

It can be improved, but the effect varies from person to person. Rhinoplasty is a common surgery now, but it requires a lot from the doctor. People with sunken mid-face (sunken nasal base) and sunken face (sunken nasal base) cannot be improved by rhinoplasty alone. Only by the nasal base.
