Aesthetic nose surgery (rhinoplasty) is a surgical procedure performed to improve the appearance of one’s nose and achieve a more attractive facial profile. However, sometimes accidents can be inevitable in unexpected moments of life and an aesthetic nose can be hit. In this case, it is important to have information about what to do and what effect to expect after the impact.
What happens if an aesthetic nose is hit?
After an aesthetic nose surgery, the nose may be more sensitive and various consequences may occur after impact:
Swelling and Bruising: Swelling and bruising may occur as a result of nasal impact. This may vary depending on the severity of the impact and the sensitivity of the nasal tissues.
Nasal Haemorrhage: There may be slight bleeding in the nose as a result of the blow. This usually stops quickly, but if there is a serious bleeding situation, medical attention may be required.
Affected Stitches: If you still have stitches after surgery, there is a risk that these stitches may be affected by the impact.
Change in Results: Changes in your surgical results may occur as a result of nasal impact. These changes can often be temporary or lead to permanent effects on your previous rhinoplasty.
What should be done?
If you receive an aesthetic nose blow, it is important to follow the steps below:
Apply Cold Compress Immediately: Immediately apply a cold compress to the impact area to reduce nasal swelling and bruising.
Consult a Doctor: If there is severe trauma or bleeding as a result of a nose blow, you should contact a health professional immediately.
Inform Your Surgeon: Inform your surgeon who performed the surgery. Your doctor will provide you with appropriate treatment and instructions.
Be Patient: Swelling, bruising or temporary changes may occur as a result of nasal impact. These effects usually improve over time.
In the case of an aesthetic nose blow, a professional medical evaluation is important because any problems in the nasal tissues after the blow may need to be diagnosed early.
