Rhinoseptoplasty

Physiological disorders of nasal breathing often become a reason for concern and subsequent visits to a surgeon. However, this is not the only reason. Many patients, dissatisfied with their appearance, want to correct the shape of the nose and are ready to resort to surgery. To solve all these problems, rhinoseptoplasty is performed - a surgical intervention carried out for the purpose of treating and correcting the nose.

Septoplasty and Rhinoplasty – What’s the Difference?

Septoplasty is an operation to correct the nasal septum. According to statistics, about 80% of the population has pathological deviations or deformations of the nasal plate, but not all of them require surgical treatment. Surgical correction of the nasal septum is carried out strictly according to medical indications.

The purpose of rhinoplasty is to correct the shape of the nose and eliminate associated aesthetic defects to improve the proportions of the face. The operation is performed only at the request of the patient without a medical referral.

Rhinoseptoplasty is a type of plastic surgery that combines the techniques of two interventions at once. The manipulation allows you to improve the aesthetics of the nose and eliminate the deformation of the nasal plate, preventing possible complications in the future.

Septoplasty and Rhinoplasty – What’s the Difference?

Indications and contraindications

The reasons for performing the operation are significant problems with nasal breathing, which have arisen as a result of the curvature of the nasal septum. The pathology often becomes a consequence of childhood trauma, when the resulting damage leads to disturbances in the formation of cartilaginous and bone structures. In the case when the injury occurred after adolescence, the nasal plate can be deformed due to pathological cartilaginous growths, displacement relative to the central spine, fractures.

Also, the curvature of the nasal septum can be congenital due to the peculiarities of the formation of the skeleton.

Nasal septum deformity also leads to other serious conditions:

  • Hypertrophy of the inferior turbinates
  • Formation of polyps
  • Development of chronic ENT pathologies that do not respond to drug therapy (allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, etc.)

In this case, diagnosis is also an indication for rhinoseptoplasty.

Aesthetic considerations regarding the operation are based on the patient's dissatisfaction with the appearance of the nose. It concerns:

  • Back (wide, flat, high)
  • Tip (drooping, flattened, snub)
  • Asymmetrical arrangement
  • Hump, dip and other irregularities

Contraindications to surgery can be relative and absolute. In the first case, we are talking about the presence of:

  • Inflammatory diseases of the nasal mucosa
  • Infection in the active phase
  • Inflammatory lesions of the skin near the surgical area
  • Pregnancy, breastfeeding period

After eliminating temporary factors, septorhinoplasty is considered possible in the absence of other contraindications. The operation is not allowed if the patient is diagnosed with:

  • Diabetes mellitus
  • Oncological tumors
  • Chronic diseases of the heart, liver, lungs
  • Autoimmune pathologies
  • Hemodynamic disorders

Surgical intervention is also contraindicated for persons under 18 years of age.

General information about the procedure

Preparation for surgery

Rhinoseptoplasty is performed by a plastic surgeon. The doctor sets a date for the surgery, before which the patient must undergo laboratory and instrumental examination. This includes:

  • OAK
  • OAM
  • Biochemical blood test, electrolyte content
  • Coagulogram
  • Determination of blood type, Rh factor
  • HIV, hepatitis tests
  • ECG

You will also need the latest fluorography data. Additionally, rhinoscopy, MRI, CT, and radiography are prescribed.

Two weeks before the surgery, the patient should stop taking blood-thinning medications, drinking alcohol, and smoking. Patients usually do not undergo interventions on the eve of or immediately after menstruation, since at this time there is a high probability of hematomas due to low blood clotting.

Surgery techniques

Plastic surgery of the nose is a complex manipulation that requires special skills from the surgeon. Since a large amount of actions must be performed, the operation is performed under general anesthesia.

Based on the causes of the curvature, rhinoseptoplasty of the nose can be functional and reconstructive. In the first case, congenital anomalies of the septum are treated, in the second - acquired ones.

The surgery technique provides two options - closed and open. During closed surgery, incisions are made inside the nasal cavity, so they are completely invisible from the outside. However, this method is used when the surgeon does not need full visual control over the nose.

Open surgery provides more opportunities for eliminating functional and aesthetic defects. In this case, an additional dissection is made between the nostrils with separation of soft tissues.

The curvature is corrected by submucous resection of the nasal septum, when the mucous membrane is carefully separated from the cartilaginous and bone tissue, and then individual fragments are removed. Septoplasty also involves resection of protruding growths and other correction of the bone and cartilaginous structures of the nose with minimal damage.

After the manipulation is completed, a plaster cast is fixed on the nose, the nostrils are closed with turundas for a day.

Rehabilitation

The duration of the recovery period depends on the volume of the intervention and the body's regenerative abilities. The first few days the patient is in the hospital under the supervision of doctors. During this time, you cannot independently move or loosen the splint, remove the turundas. It is imperative to take medications as prescribed, do not sleep face down, and avoid tilting your head forward.

The plaster cast is removed after 10 days. By this time, the patient still has pronounced swelling and bruises, which will gradually disappear. For nasal care, it is recommended to use ointments with a pronounced regenerating effect, rinse the nasal passages with saline solutions. In order not to harm the correct tissue regeneration, it is necessary to exclude:

  • Active physical activity, sports for at least 2 months
  • Consumption of very hot or cold food, drinks
  • Smoking, alcohol
  • Wearing glasses
  • Sun exposure
  • Visiting a bathhouse, sauna

These restrictions are valid for at least 30 days, but on the recommendation of a doctor they can be extended for a longer period. Full rehabilitation requires from several months to six months, depending on the specifics of the surgical treatment performed.

I was admitted to the clinic with carcinoma. I am happy that I ended up in the hands of Ivan Aleksandrovich. A very competent, attentive to the patient, and most importantly - an honest doctor. I received answers to all my questions and was offered several options for subsequent plastic surgery. The doctor came personally for dressings, after discharge I could always ask questions at subsequent dressings. If you have a choice and have the opportunity to go to Ivan Aleksandrovich - know that you are in reliable and good hands.

I had surgery in this clinic with Mitoyan Ruzanna Yesaievna, the doctor made an impression from the first appointment. During the consultation, everything was explained in detail about how it goes, what is needed for the operation to take place, and what recovery is like. I received very competent answers to all my questions, I compare with other clinics where I consulted, they wanted to impose such a feeling more than anything else. I really liked her delicacy, attentiveness, charge with calm and confidence. On February 22, 2024, I had upper blepharoplasty, the operation went perfectly, the postoperative period was easy, I followed all the recommendations and no problems arose, there were almost no bruises or swelling and everything healed very quickly. I want to express my deep gratitude to you for your professionalism and light hand! I was delighted with my eyes! It’s been a long time since my look has been so fresh and not overweight. And another miracle that you did - you saved all my colored permanent makeup on my eyelids!

Many thanks to Galina Telnova. Great professional. In December 23, I had my eyes done (bottom, top), I was terribly afraid that my appearance would change, that something would go wrong. Everything went perfectly. Attentive nurses. Galina Sergeevna inspires with calmness and confidence. Very grateful. I like myself very much. If I decide to undergo any more plastic surgery, only go to Galina Sergeevna Telnova.

I had breast shape correction and abdominoplasty done at K+31. After the operation, I spent only 3 days in the ward, after which I went home and recovered at home. I waited about two months for complete healing. The clinic (West) has excellent staff, friendly attitude

Many thanks to plastic surgeons K+31! All my life I suffered from back pain due to the constant load on the spine... Finally, at the age of 45, I decided to have a breast reduction. Within a week, the swelling went down and I finally had small breasts. The rehabilitation period passed as quickly as possible and without complications.

The augmentation was done in early autumn with round Mentor implants. I wanted to achieve the maximum effect and I was right. The breasts are firm, soft and beautiful, the seams are not visible. +100 to confidence. If you want a more natural effect, the doctor may suggest teardrop-shaped implants.

I contacted Dr. Ruzana Mitoyan about intimate plastic surgery (resection of the labia minora), the result exceeded all my expectations, I was afraid of pain and disappointment from the final result, but everything is fine, even better than I expected! The doctor was in touch, the rehabilitation period was easy.

Ruzanna Yesaievna made the most pleasant impression on me even during the consultation. She explained everything in detail about the operation, anesthesia options, and rehabilitation. After the consultation, we set a date for the surgery. The operation itself went well, there were no complications. Although I planned to spend the night under observation, I went home because I felt good. It is now 9 days after surgery. There was no pain from the word at all, not a single seam came apart. Now the healing is progressing at its own pace, without causing me any discomfort. And the result is already incredibly pleasing! Ruzanna Yesaievna is a tough professional who does her job with love. I am very glad that I ended up with her. Choosing a surgeon is a rather difficult process. Based on my experience, I can confidently recommend Ruzanna Yesaievna.
