Nose Tip Lift (Tipplasty)

Tipplasty (Nose Tip Lift)

The tip of the nose (tip) is the part of the nose consisting only of cartilage and skin without bone. It is a procedure performed for patients who are satisfied with the bone structure of the nose but do not like the tip area. It is applied to patients with excessive width or narrowness when viewed from the front, excessively projected or low nose tip when viewed from the side, and symmetry problems.

Before Surgery 

Detailed medical history, patient examination, patient expectations, information about the surgery, pre-procedure photography and three-dimensional imaging, necessary tests and examinations are performed.

Surgery

The necessary procedures are applied under general anesthesia or local anesthesia in approximately 1 hour to achieve a natural appearance. Additional procedures (chin aesthetics, cheekbone aesthetics, septoplasty) can be added according to the patient’s nose structure. Special tape application, silicone nasal tampon or self-melting spongy nasal tampon can be placed when necessary. Splint application can be performed.

After Surgery 

Eating starts after a short time. Cold application is applied on the nose and face. It is recommended to continue this application for the first 24 hours. The patient is mobilized after eating. The patient is discharged on the same day or the next day. If silicone tampon is applied, it is removed after 2 to 3 days. Hair can be washed hairdresser style without wetting the splint on the nose. You can take a shower from the neck down. The splint on the nose is removed on the 7th day and your nasal tip stitches are removed. You can return to work life after the splint is removed. There may be breathing difficulties in the first days. Swelling and bruises may occur on the face and nose. Light activities can be started after 3 weeks and heavy activities after 4-6 weeks. Glasses can be used after 4-6 weeks.
