Frequently Asked Questions
These answers are general information. Your recovery, technique and timeline will be discussed individually during consultation.
- Most patients return to desk work and light daily activities within 7–10 days, when the external splint is usually removed. Visible bruising and swelling generally fade over two to three weeks. Strenuous exercise is typically avoided for around four to six weeks.
- Rhinoplasty is generally performed under general anesthesia in a hospital operating room, administered by an anesthesiologist. A pre-operative assessment is carried out to confirm it is safe for you.
- The overall shape is visible once the splint comes off, but subtle swelling — particularly at the nasal tip — can take 12 months or longer to fully resolve, depending on skin thickness and the extent of surgery.
- Yes. Revision surgery is assessed carefully, as it may involve scar tissue and limited cartilage. It is usually considered no earlier than about one year after the previous operation. Cartilage grafting may be required.
- Packages for international patients may include surgery, hospital stay, transfers and accommodation coordination. The exact scope depends on your plan and is confirmed in writing after your pre-assessment.
