What is Rhinoplasty?
A rhinoplasty procedure reshapes, corrects or reconstructs the nose to achieve more aesthetically pleasing proportions and to enhance ones’ physical appearance.
The nose develops its final shape only after puberty and this development is complete by the age of 16. This determines the earliest age at which one can reasonably carry out a rhinoplasty.
Whilst this is most commonly carried out for aesthetic reasons, a nose job can also be performed as a procedure to improve function by correcting breathing issues and help alleviate the symptoms of sleep apnoea and snoring. In these cases, one is likely to also be operating on the septum or turbinate which are blocking the airway, otherwise known as a septoplasty or submucosal resection.

After our first contact with you, detailed information about the process and price information will be sent to you. If you would like to benefit from the Rhinoplasty service of Lokman Hekim Health Group, we ask you to first inform us of the date you will be in Istanbul. Your doctor’s appointment is made on the most convenient date for you, according to your arrival time in Istanbul. We will meet you at the airport in Istanbul and help you to reach Lokman Hekim Istanbul Hospital free of charge. Your Rhinoplasty process begins with Lokman Hekim Health Group after we provide your transfer. Our professional international team of patient consultants accompany you throughout your entire process in your preferred language. In case you prefer a different city in Turkey other than Istanbul, rhinoplasty procedures are offered in a similar scope at our 1 University hospital and 2 full-fledged hospitals in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey and 2 hospitals in Van.
In the consultation, your surgeon will make a comprehensive evaluation including the inside and outside of your nose and your facial features, in which the techniques to be applied in Rhinoplasty will be determined. During the consultation, you can share what you want to achieve from the surgery and your concerns with your surgeon, and you can get answers to all your questions about the surgery.
During the consultation, your surgeon examines your medical history, chronic diseases, past or current medications and previous surgeries for your health. At the end of the consultation, the most suitable Rhinoplasty technique for you will be determined by your surgeon in line with the details of your medical history and the nose appearance you want to achieve. With your approval, the operation process is started.
After the consultation and review of your past medical history, all the tests that are considered necessary for your health before the surgery are completed in the presence of our specialist nurses.
During rhinoplasty surgery, local anesthesia or general anesthesia is applied according to the sedation need of the patient. In our Lokman Hekim Istanbul Hospital, Rhinoplasty surgery is performed with the piezo method. In the piezo rhinoplasty method, the shaping and incisions made in the nasal bone are made with a piezo device working with ultrasonic sound waves. While this ultrasonic device can cut the nasal bone straight and easily; Since the nasal bone does not need to be broken, it does not cause any trauma to veins, soft tissues and thin skin. Since the tissues are not damaged, pain, swelling and bruises are less after the surgery. Because that the procedure is performed by making millimetric measurements in the piezo method, it is much more reliable than traditional rhinoplasty methods. With the piezo method, you can easily achieve the nose look you dream of with less pain. Nose surgery usually takes about 2 hours.
Depending on your condition, you may need to stay in the hospital for one night after the surgery. During this period, dressing can be applied to each nostril. After one night of hospitalization, you will be transferred to the 4 to 5-star hotel where you will have a reservation. Following 6-7 days after the procedure, your post-operative examination appointment will be arranged for you. Lokman Hekim Health Group covers the accommodation expenses of our esteemed guest and 1 accompanying person, including breakfast, until the date of the said examination . During your control appointment ,the tampons and splints placed on your nose are removed. After all medical procedures are completed, your transfer to the airport will be performed by Lokman Hekim Health Group, depending on the date of your return ticket.
After the procedure, bruising, swelling may occur in the eyes and upper cheeks, and a sore throat may be experienced. These symptoms will subside within 10-14 days. We recommend sleeping on your back with your head up for the first two weeks after surgery to reduce swelling.
