East Asian rhinoplasty in Istanbul

Many people from East Asia and Central Asia have noses with an ethnic East Asian shape, which is a short nose bridge and wider than usual.

Persian speakers in eastern Iran, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan may have these types of noses

In East Asian rhinoplasty in Istanbul, it is usually necessary to reconstruct the nose with cartilage

Below is a complete explanation of this process

The main problems of ethnic rhinoplasty are the following

  • Large nostrils
  • The width of the end of the nose is large
  • Shortness of the base of the nose

In order to correct the above, it will be corrected as follows after the examination by a ethnic rhinoplasty in Istanbul

Correction of large nostrils

The nose surgeon makes incisions in the inner part of the nostrils (as shown in the figure) and in this way the size of the nostrils is closer to the standard size.

Because these incisions are in the inner part of the nose, they do not leave stitches and will be the best for the result of the operation

Correcting the large width of the end of the nose

As mentioned in the previous section, incisions were made inside the nose to make the nostrils smaller.

This will make the nostrils smaller and the width of the nose smaller

Correcting the shortness of the base of the nose

Considering that the tip of the nose and the base of the nose are short in East Asian people, it is necessary to remove the cartilage to lift the base of the nose and the tip of the nose.

Usually, the cartilage is removed from behind the patient’s ear or rib and is used to reconstruct the base and tip of the nose

To perform this operation, the nose surgeon must have great expertise in nose surgery

Price of East Asian rhinoplasty in Istanbul

Considering that ethnic rhinoplasty is always more difficult than conventional rhinoplasty, the cost of Asian rhinoplasty in Turkey is usually between 500 and 1000 euros more expensive than conventional rhinoplasty.

The operation of removing cartilage and reconstructing the nose is more difficult and requires the expertise of a nose surgeon in Istanbul, and it also has a longer operation time.

 

East Asian rhinoplasty in Istanbul care and post-operative

The care of this operation is the same as the nose operation, with the difference that the nose surgeon may remove the nasal strips later than in the case of normal nose surgery.

And it is better to remove the nasal cast for 10 days after nose surgery instead of one week

The reason for this time delay is better reconstruction and shaping of the nose

Following the instructions of the surgeon should be done more carefully, and usually the time of gluing the nose is longer than that of a normal nose operation
