Who is not a good candidate for rhinoplasty - nose job? in Turkey Plastic Surgery

Who cannot get rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty surgery is one of the functional and aesthetic surgeries performed to ensure full nasal functions or to eliminate deformities in the nose. Rhinoplasty surgery is one of the most preferred aesthetic procedures in Turkey. However, despite being so preferred, nose surgery cannot be performed on every individual.

Who is not a good candidate for rhinoplasty

Aesthetic nose surgery is mostly performed to eliminate deformities in the nose, while septorhinoplasty is a surgery performed to eliminate functional problems that prevent the patient from breathing comfortably and healthily, and also to provide the patient with an aesthetic nose appearance.

So, who cannot get rhinoplasty due to aesthetic or functional demands?

  • Individuals under the age of 18 with incomplete bone development,
  • Individuals who have body perception problems due to psychological illness,
  • Individuals with poor general health,
  • Individuals with diabetes,
  • Individuals with heart disease,
  • Individuals with high blood pressure,
  • Individuals with cancer who are actively receiving cancer treatment,
  • All surgical procedures carry risks. Individuals who cannot take surgical risks are not suitable candidates for rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty cannot be performed on these individuals without the permission of the doctors they consult for the treatment of their diseases.

Your plastic surgeon, who evaluates the patient's health history and the examinations performed before rhinoplasty, will tell you whether you are a suitable candidate for rhinoplasty.

Who is good candidate for nose jobe - rhinoplasty

Individuals who want to have nose surgery must have certain characteristics. Here are the characteristics of the most suitable candidates for Rhinoplasty:

  • Individuals over the age of 18, (Since bone development in men can continue until the age of 25, this period may vary.)
  • Individuals with good general health,
  • Individuals who have good mental health as well as physical health,
  • Individuals who feel ready for the recovery period after rhinoplasty.

Male rhinoplasty surgery in Turkey - Do men get rhinoplasty?

Body and bone development in men can continue until the age of 25. For this reason, nose surgery for individuals whose bone development is complete may cause undesirable nose images to appear in the following years as growth continues.

The golden ratio is used in nose aesthetics. This may cause the proportion determined in the aesthetic procedure performed on an individual with incomplete bone development to deteriorate in later years. A nose structure that is incompatible with the individual's face shape may occur. As the man's facial features grow, his aesthetic nose may remain small compared to his face. Small nose is applied to women in plastic surgery; it is a feminine nose shape, not a masculine one. Considering all these possibilities, it is more appropriate for men to undergo rhinoplasty surgery after waiting for puberty and full body development to be completed in order to prevent the need for revision rhinoplasty.

In what cases is nose surgery not performed?

If the patient's general health condition is poor or he or she has heart disease or hypertension, rhinoplasty cannot be performed without permission from doctors in the fields related to these diseases.

Although the patient is a suitable candidate for rhinoplasty in every sense, if he had a flu illness just before the surgery or had a problem that would cause an infection in his blood, the rhinoplasty surgery is postponed.

How safe is rhinoplasty?

Although the rhinoplasty operation does not appear to be fatal, it carries a life-threatening risk, as in all surgical procedures.
