Considering Nose Surgery

If you are thinking about having nose surgery (rhinoplasty) with ENT London, then there are several things that you need to consider first. Your ENT surgeon will be happy to take you step by step through the procedure and how you should prepare yourself for nose surgery.

 

Perhaps the most important thing to talk about with your ear, nose and throat surgeon is the reason you are thinking about rhinoplasty. This is important for several reasons: firstly to establish exactly what nose surgery you require, secondly to establish whether your expectations are realistic, and finally to see if the costs could be covered by your medical insurance.

 

Your ENT specialist will examine and measure your nose and discuss what kind of nose surgery you are thinking of and why.

 

Your ENT specialist will then guide you through exactly what it is possible to achieve with your nose surgery. Reduction rhinoplasty can work wonders on noses that are too large or unbalanced, while augmentation rhinoplasty can enhance and reshape smaller noses to a more pleasing size. Your ENT surgeon will be able to show you pictures of previous procedures that have been done by the ear, nose and throat surgeons at ENT London, so that you can get a realistic idea of the possible outcomes of your nose surgery.

 

The reasons for your surgery will be discussed in detail, as many of the problems that drive people to rhinoplasty, such as breathing difficulties, accidental damage and disease, are covered by medical insurance. Either way, your ENT surgeon will ensure that you are fully aware of all the options, and the relative costs, before you agree to your surgery.

 

Your ear, nose and throat surgeon at ENT London will then discuss the details of the operation with you, including any steps you need to take before your rhinoplasty, how long your rhinoplasty operation may take, how long it will take to recover, and what scars, if any, you will be left with.

 

It is important to ask your ENT specialist any questions you have at this stage, as it is well known that patients who understand their surgery, and who have realistic expectations of the outcome, are far more likely to have a successful treatment. No question is a stupid question, so please do not be afraid to ask your ENT surgeon about any detail of your rhinoplasty.

 

Once everything is agreed, and you are completely happy with your proposed rhinoplasty, a date can be set for your nose surgery and you will be well on your way to your new look.
