Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty
Classical surgical techniques such as bone cutting and breaking (osteotomy) used during rhinoplasty surgeries where bones need to be shaped can cause swelling and bruising in the patient's facial area after surgery. At the same time, the healing process of the patients is prolonged as the surrounding tissues and capillaries are damaged during the bone cutting process.
Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty
It is accepted that a new era has opened in rhinoplasty with the ultrasonic rhinoplasty method, which makes rhinoplasty operations more comfortable and at the same time allows doctors to easily perform the most delicate bone shaping procedures. After this new technology, noses look more elegant and natural; while the patient recovers quickly, swelling and bruises experienced after rhinoplasty performed with classical surgical methods are minimized.
What is Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty?
The method, which has been used in recent years during rhinoplasty surgeries and where bone cutting and shaping procedures are performed by means of three-dimensional sound waves, is called “ultrasonic rhinoplasty”. Since the bones inside the nose are cut in a controlled and precise manner during this method, the comfort of the patients after surgery increases and the recovery time is shortened.
The bones are not broken; since they are cut millimetrically, there is no damage to the tissues and vessels in the area. After this method, in which sound waves are used to shape the bones, almost no bruising or swelling is observed on the patients' faces.
Based on the fact that the biggest fear of patients who want to undergo a rhinoplasty operation is the difficulties experienced in the post-operative healing process; It can be said that ultrasonic rhinoplasty minimizes the concerns of patients.
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty is a safe and effective surgical method that increases the postoperative comfort of patients while allowing specialist doctors to operate very precisely on the nasal septum. This method, which was first used in neurosurgery and orthopedics, is also advantageous in terms of achieving a natural appearance after surgery.
How is Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty Performed?
In the ultrasonic rhinoplasty method, which offers the opportunity to work in detail on the bones by preventing soft tissue damage, radical changes in the nose are also performed effectively with minimal corrections.
There is no change in the surgical process, the patient is still given anesthesia and standard procedures are performed in the same way. The only difference is that a more controlled and effective method is used during the bone shaping process. However, due to this difference, ultrasonic rhinoplasty has many advantages over classical rhinoplasty.
What are the Advantages of Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty?
The advantages of ultrasonic rhinoplasty surgery, in which the bones are shaped millimetrically without breaking; thus, even the smallest changes are successfully realized, can be listed as follows:
Swelling and bruises seen after rhinoplasty operations performed with classical surgical methods are minimized.
- Since bone shaping can be performed millimetrically, the operation can be carried out in accordance with the planned shape. After facial analysis, the closest results to the planned nose can be obtained.
- Since a precise cutting process is performed, the surrounding tissue is not damaged while shaping the bones in the nose. As a result, the patient can return to his/her daily life in a much shorter period of time.
- Patients' comfort during the recovery period increases and their pain in the post-operative period decreases.
- The most natural results can be obtained because the surgeon can shape the bones as he wants.
- It can be used safely even in patients with the thinnest nasal bones and unexpected bone fractures can be prevented.
- It is easy to apply but requires expertise. Experienced specialist doctors can show their skills much more impressively with the ultrasonic rhinoplasty method.
- As a result; with the advancement of medical technologies and the introduction of ultrasonic rhinoplasty, the comfort of both patients and surgeons has increased.
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty, which minimizes the postoperative distress of patients and offers surgeons the opportunity to shape the nose in a controlled manner; It is considered the gold standard of rhinoplasty operations.
