Rhinoplasty
We do not recommend a nose surgery before the age of 16. Nose surgeries that are performed after the patient’s facial development is completed will give more accurate results.
The prices of rhinoplasty surgeries increase or decrease depending on whether it is the patient’s first operation or a revision, whether there is a deviation in the nose, whether there is a concha or not, and according to the skin type which affects the duration of the operation. Since minor nasal tip operations will take a shorter time, they may be cheaper, and in cases where there is not enough cartilage in revision procedures and cartilage reinforcement is required, prices may increase due to the increase in the operation time and difficulty level.
Having thick skin is not a problem, but it is a factor that complicates the operation. There are techniques applied to reshape the thin form of the cartilage at the tip of the nose. Op. Dr. Selim Turan has performed many successful operations with thick-skinned patients.
Thin-skinned nose does not cause a problem, but if the skin is very thin, it requires attention as it will show all the changes to be made under it, and cartilage can be added if necessary. Op.
