Ear cartilage rhinoplasty sequelae, take good care to avoid sequelae

A common type of rhinoplasty surgery is ear cartilage rhinoplasty, which is also currently quite popular. If you choose a regular institution after the rhinoplasty surgery and take good care after the operation, especially paying attention to infection, you can avoid the sequelae of post-rhinoplasty. Make you more beautiful.

1. Having rhinoplasty does not mean the operation is successful. Rhinoplasty experts say that you need to pay attention to some details after rhinoplasty. Generally, postoperative swelling will appear 1-2 hours after the operation, reach its peak around 24 hours, stop after 48 hours, and end to subside after 72 hours. After rhinoplasty, apply antibiotic ointment to the wound, leave it exposed, and do not bandage it. There will be a small amount of bleeding, which can be gently wiped off with sterilized cotton fibers. Do not touch the wound with unclean objects to avoid contamination.

2. After rhinoplasty, rest in a semi-recumbent position to facilitate blood circulation. Do not lower your head on the first day to prevent bleeding; you can eat liquid food in the first two or three days, but do not eat comfort food. Right after the operation, before the nose swells, you can look in the mirror to see what your nose looks like now. At this time, the nose shape is more realistic; when the swelling covers the original shape, the nose is likely to look very good, even scary. But you don't need to be afraid, this is a normal surgical reaction and almost everyone has to go through this process. This is not inflammation, but a normal tissue response.

3. The face has abundant blood circulation, so swelling is more severe after trauma, but the swelling also subsides quickly. This swelling reaction can be mild or severe. In mild cases, it is not obvious. In severe cases, the nose bridge becomes flat, as if there is no nose pad, so that even the lower eyelids become swollen, but the swelling is not painful and subsides quickly. This is related to factors such as rough surgical operation, severe trauma, bleeding, and defects in the patient's coagulation mechanism.

But most people do not experience severe swelling after surgery. Some people become nervous and uneasy when they see that the swelling is more severe, not knowing what the consequences will be; some people are impatient for quick results and use massage and hot compress to try to speed up the swelling, but these are of no help. It requires patience, and the swelling will naturally go away with time. No tricks will work before the time comes. Generally, it will become more natural in about 10 days, and sometimes you can't even tell that you have had a rhinoplasty operation. The slower the recovery, the more likely it is to take 2-3 weeks for the nose to become like a normal person's.
