Many people learn about rhinoplasty operations by hearsay. At this point, I write my articles about operations and applications on my website and milliyet.com.tr as much as possible according to the requests and complaints I receive from my patients. As you can guess, the most questions and comments are about rhinoplasty operations. Those who follow me on social media know that I sometimes share photos with my patients. In a way, this shows that swelling and bruises do not occur on the face after rhinoplasty as it is thought.

Contrary to popular belief, rhinoplasty rarely causes bruising on the face

Rhinoplasty operations are nowadays shaped according to the surgeon’s dexterity by using different techniques. When the technique applied by your surgeon is personalized and applied in the most accurate way, the risk of bruises on the patient’s face is low. Thanks to piezo rhinoplasty performed without breaking, special tips are used to shape the nasal bone and cartilage tissue. With millimetric calculations, damage to small blood vessels, muscle groups and bone tissue is minimized, providing both convenience in the operation and playing an important role in preventing bruising during the patient’s healing process.
