This procedure is applied to patients that are not satisfied with the previous rhinoplasty. In some cases, even the nose shape is fine, dyspnea on the person requires this revision procedure. On the other hand, some people with no dyspnea complaint but distorted nose shape refer to this surgery too.
Selecting the right surgeon in this revision procedure is much more important than the surgeon’s role in first rhinoplasty as every further revision procedure challenges with surgical complexity and complications due to the expansion of the scar tissue and loss of anatomic features.
Nose reduction surgery has been much easier than the nose augmentation surgery. When you seek a surgeon, you should select your previous surgeon if you believe in him/her, because he/she is well aware of what happened during the previous procedure.
We qualify the first nose surgery as a personalized procedure, however it is more obvious in the revision procedure.
Your plastic surgeon performing the revision surgery should be well acquainted with septorinoplasty procedure, because septum is the central pillar of the revision process.
Most of the warps and collapses are associated with septum and besides it constitutes the foundation of cartilage grafts employed in revision surgeries.
Steer clear of acidic foods Lemons, carbonated beverages, and a whole host of other foods and beverages contain acids that can cause severe erosion of the protective layer of enamel. A good rule of thumb is to always chase acidic foods and drinks with a glass of water. This will help to wash away potentially harmful residue.
Chew with care Ever chipped a tooth on a piece of ice? Popcorn kernel? Olive pit? These are just some of the foods that can cause a chipped or fractured tooth. Nowadays, cosmetic dentistry can repair a broken tooth with relative ease. However, with a little caution, you may be able to avoid the pain and inconvenience of broken tooth altogether.
Replace faulty fillings Improperly fitted fillings may leave room for bacteria to buildup, which leads to decay. They may also make the tooth more susceptible to fracture, especially if the tooth is already cracked.
Avoid grinding your teeth Teeth grinding is a fairly common problem that most frequently occurs during sleep. Grinding has various negative health effects, including head and neck aches. But it also negatively affects the smile. Grinding wears down the enamel and can even lead to facial collapse, which is characterized by deep wrinkles around the nose and chin. Fortunately, this is a problem that can be remedied with a special bite guard, which may not stop the grinding but does prevent further damage.
Nix harsh habits Always use a soft toothbrush since hard ones can wear down the enamel, exposing the softer layer of dentin. Brushing this improperly can cause severe damage to the look and health of your teeth. Dentists recommend using a slow, circular motion when brushing the teeth.

Massage: Treat yourself to a justified indulgence. In addition to boosting circulation, massage also ensures the smooth healing of skin if done within the first months after liposuction.
Diet & exercise: Ok, so this is the obvious, right? Still, that shouldn’t mitigate its importance. We all know how challenging (and often tedious) it can be to keep up with a regular workout regimen, and even worse, a strict diet. The fact is that maintaining a sensible diet and fitness routine is the best way to make liposuction last!
Skincare: Contrary to popular belief, skincare is not only for the face. It is important to take care of the rest of our skin as well, especially as we age and our skin begins to lose some of its elasticity. Daily moisturizing can help prevent sagging skin and maintain post-liposuction contours. Look for a moisturizer that contains vitamin C, which helps to boost collagen production.
Avoid excessive sun exposure: Sun exposure not only accelerates the breakdown of collagen, it also can lead to pigmentation changes if it happens too soon after liposuction surgery.
Exfoliation: This only needs to be done on a periodical basis but is important for achieving smooth skin. You don’t want to hide the benefits of liposuction under dull, dry skin.
Rhinoplasty is the most advanced form of rhinoplasty designed based on micro-surgical principles.
In this method computerized designing is done based on the ideal nose configuration.
Access to the nasal structure is provided with no-scar appraoch. The aim is to change the nose shape and provide harmony between the nasal segments and also face compartments. Septum surgery is the cornerstone in aesthetic nose surgery and airway refinement is achieved by right instrumentation in the form of septo-rhinoplasty.
Micro-dissection of rhinoplasty procedure provides less invasive manipulation that by itself results in fast healing postoperatively with minimal bruising and edema formation.
The most characteristic part of rhinoplasty is the use of ultra-micro-motor system in the shaping of nasal bone compartment. It is not used the hammer power that is destructive in reduction of bony hump. In stead of that, Dr. Yakup Avşar uses the more delicate and controlable power of micro-saws and micro-rasps that enables him in sculpting the details of nasal bones. This technology decreases the risk of nasal bone destruction and also the complications of hump fracturing that is common in usual rhinoplasty procedure. For this after rhinoplasty the probability of re-operation decreases very strict.
Micro-refinement of cartilaginous compartments of nose is another part of rhinoplasty that facilitate the shaping procedure and also symmetry is achieved in its most delicate form.
Postoperative period after rhinoplasty is characterized by minimal pain, minimal discomfort and fast healing is the definitive characteristic of the procedure. Minimal breathing discomfort by using bi-valve splints brings another facility to this procedure.
