One of the leading facial cosmetic surgeries on the market is the nose job and as rhinoplasty has been practiced and perfected over the years since its inception, there is likely to be a type of surgery to suit your personal needs. As the nose sits at the centre of the face, finding the best rhinoplasty surgeon in Turkey can help to transform the way you look with little fuss.

Types of nose surgery in Turkey

There are many reasons why an individual will want to have rhinoplasty surgery. You may experience a lack of confidence if your nose is too big or small in relation to the rest of your features, if it is crooked, off-centre, or not symmetrical, but you may also find that the structure of your nose causes difficulty breathing (this could be genetic or as the result of an accident or injury). All rhinoplasty procedures aim to either reshape, reconstruct, or correct issues for patients of all types.

As the reasons are so varied, there are a host of different types of nose jobs available, and these include:

  • Open Rhinoplasty

  • Closed Rhinoplasty or Endonasal Rhinoplasty (otherwise known as liquid nose job or liquid rhinoplasty)

  • Ethnic Rhinoplasty (African and Oriental Nose Augmentation)

  • Septorhinoplasty or Septoplasty

  • Rhino-Tip Surgery or Tip Plasty correction (or bulbous nose job)

  • Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty

  • Revision Rhinoplasty or Secondary Rhinoplasty (to rectify the results of a botched nose job)

Some of these procedures are more invasive than others, but rhinoplasty can prove difficult to perform due to the three-dimensional nature of the surgery. The good news is that in Turkey nose job surgeries are performed by highly-skilled, accredited surgeons that have access to state-of-the-art machinery and equipment in some of the most well-appointed facilities in the world.

What rhinoplasty entails

Whether you want a nose job men, reconstruction, reshaping, or even rectification for a badly performed past surgery, the steps involved will be relatively the same. You can expect to be put under local anesthesia with sedation for more in-depth procedures, or general anesthesia if the surgery is more straightforward (sometimes, this may depend on the surgeon’s preferences, so don’t worry if you want a simple reshaping and are suggested the former). 

The surgery itself will either be undertaken within the nose or via an external incision at the base of the nose where bone and cartilage will be readjusted or potentially reshaped. If additional cartilage is needed, it may be taken from further up in the nasal cavity or from the ear, but in more extreme cases, you may need an implant or piece of bone inserted (which can be taken from elsewhere in the body). Incisions will be closed with stitches and the patient required to wear a small amount of bandaging to reduce the risks of infection. Most individuals will be able to leave their medical facility within a few hours, or overnight if they have any underlying health issues (you will need to discuss these with your surgeon beforehand).

Rhinoplasty in Turkey cost

One of the most attractive features of getting rhinoplasty in Turkey is the balance between costs and services. While you may think that low costs will mean less-than-desirable services and mediocre results, this is the opposite of true. In fact, Turkey is one of the top ten destinations in the world for medical tourism and provides a higher level of customer care, alongside faster results with less waiting times, than leading countries like the UK and the US. Many surgeries in Turkey offer package deals, so you can get flight costs, airport pickup and even luxury accommodation at a fantastic price.

Is rhinoplasty right for me?

If you are unhappy with the size or shape of your nose it can be worthwhile to know that even the slightest changes can have a significant effect, even if the shift is just a couple of millimeters. The more experienced the surgeon you choose, the more likely you are to be happy to be with the end results. In some cases, your nose may alter in shape and size (this is a normal process), so follow-up consultations are generally scheduled for around a year after surgery is complete. Changes may be more prominent in nose job male cases, so if you are a man, be sure to keep this in mind. One of the top features of rhinoplasty is the fact that this type of surgery doesn’t have a strict protocol, so procedures will be tailored to your specific needs. With this in mind, why not book a consultation today?
