Rhinoplasty is a popular procedure at the medical center “Doctor Droga”
Beauty, naturalness, aesthetic perfection - this is how every person wants to see their reflection in the mirror. Thanks to sports, proper nutrition, and cosmetics, we can look our best. And the task of the Medical Center “Doctor Droga” is to ensure that you do not look, but are. That is why today we will talk about such a procedure as rhinoplasty. We are sure that this article will help many people to put aside their fears and doubts and finally get rid of the complexes associated with the appearance of our noses.
How popular is the rhinoplasty procedure today?
Every year at the Doctor Droga Medical Center we perform more and more such operations. For example, if 25% of my patients used to undergo rhinoplasty before, today there are twice as many of them. It's not that all of them don't like their noses, but there are different situations. Some decide to get rid of birth defects, some come after an injury, and others come to a plastic surgeon because of breathing difficulties. Modern technologies are replacing old fears, and people are increasingly choosing to eliminate imperfections forever instead of living with them. Just imagine how one surgery can change a person's entire life. We can talk about this for a long time, but it's better to just look at these before and after photos.
This girl is a patient of our clinic. She came to see Alexey Ivanovich at the age of 20. After the final formation of her nose, she struggled with complexes for several years. The crooked nose was different from different sides and, in addition, led to breathing difficulties. We corrected years of self-dissatisfaction in three hours of surgery. We changed not only her nose but also her outlook. She became confident and happy. Today there is not a trace or scar of her past dissatisfaction. It seems that she has always been like this, and her harmony - inside and out - is the most eloquent indicator of our work.
The surgery stage is preceded by diagnostics, collection of patient data, tests, and work on shaping the future shape of the nose. We do not operate on noses like Jolie's, for example, because our task is to make your face beautiful, not hers. There can't and shouldn't be two identical noses. For example, a bumpy nose can be a nuisance to some people and a charm to others, but we have to make sure that your nose gives you confidence. Every millimeter is important here, this is a jewelry and ultra-fine work, both in terms of aesthetics and in terms of establishing the naturalness of the nose. That is why we conduct a thorough examination, and discuss and calculate everything to the smallest detail with the patient. First, we form an ideal, and then we achieve it with the help of surgery.
What are the contraindications for rhinoplasty surgery?
As for age-related indications, only one thing is important: the nose must be fully formed, so we do not perform such interventions at an early age. As for the patient's health, the contraindications are heart failure, pregnancy, diabetes mellitus, blood diseases and blood clotting disorders, infectious and viral diseases, and oncology in the acute stage. We weigh all this at the preparatory stage.
How difficult is rhinoplasty surgery itself?
There are no simple operations. This is a highly responsible job for a surgeon, but modern technology allows us to perform operations accurately, quickly, and minimize trauma. The days when noses were “fixed” with tools like a hammer, chisel, and file are, to our mutual happiness, far behind us.
At the Doctor Droga Medical Center, we use French piezoelectric equipment. It has been widely used in the world since 2017. Oleksii Ivanovych personally went to Paris to get this device, and before bringing it to Kremenchuk, he was trained first in Moscow and then in Italy. Today, like many leading surgeons, he cannot imagine his work without this equipment. The device has a high cutting capacity and accuracy. Minimal incisions, maximally functional instruments, as a result - a small surgical field and quick postoperative recovery. In addition, after the intervention, we use silicone tubes and the patient begins to breathe immediately with his new nose, after 5 days we usually remove them. Gypsum is also a thing of the past: we use special pads that the patient removes after 10 days. That's it. That's how long it usually takes for a patient to return to their normal life. The only inconvenience is that you will need to postpone dangerous ball games for a while and walk around without glasses for a month, but this is hardly a big price to pay for the beauty and love of your body.
Our doctors do not leave the patient after the operation and are not tied to time or dates. We are always in touch, and the person is monitored for at least a year because we need to be sure that all processes are going well. Monitoring once a month is what we recommend to our patients. You know that the highest appreciation of a plastic surgeon's work is the invisibility of his work, so at the Dr. Droga Medical Center we are with the patient until the last hints of our intervention are erased from the face, and small crumbs of dissatisfaction with their appearance are erased from life.
Our goal is to make people beautiful and happy, and we invite you to do the same.
