Nose Surgery Q & A
What can I expect during nose surgery?
It depends on the type of nose surgery you’re having. Traditional nose surgery typically requires general anesthesia, while minimally invasive nose surgery might only need local anesthesia. Traditional procedures usually take longer to perform than minimally invasive ones.
How is nose surgery done?
Dr. Kevorkian makes changes to your nose based on your desired results. This might involve removing cartilage or reshaping your nose, depending on what you’re having done. Dr. Kevorkian provides you with detailed information on what will occur during nose surgery.
How long does it take to recover from nose surgery?
It depends on the type of nose surgery you get, but it can take several weeks to heal fully. During this time, you might have to wear a nasal splint and restrict your activities to reduce the risk of complications. Dr. Kevorkian will let you know what to expect during the recovery process.
Is nose surgery safe?
As with any surgical procedure, there are certain risks associated with nose surgery. You might experience a risk of complications, such as bleeding or infections, especially if you have a traditional procedure done. Dr. Kevorkian explains any potential complications to you before you decide whether or not to have a certain nose surgery procedure done.
What kinds of nose surgery are available?
Nose surgery is available as a minimally invasive procedure or a traditional one. Minimally invasive procedures involve making fewer, tinier incisions, while traditional methods require making larger incisions. Traditional procedures are sometimes needed for more complex nose surgery.
What are the benefits of minimally invasive nose surgery?
This type of nose surgery has a low risk of scarring and a reduced risk of complications because it involves small incisions. It also takes less time to recover from a minimally invasive nose surgery. Dr. Kevorkian can determine if minimally invasive or traditional nose surgery is right for you.
