Rhinoplasty Recovery – Post-Operative Care Sacramento

If you are unhappy with the appearance of your nose, you may benefit from rhinoplasty surgery. Your nose-reshaping procedure can provide pleasing aesthetic results, but first, you’ll need to rest and heal during rhinoplasty recovery.

Once your rhinoplasty procedure has been completed, the area will be supported using a splint and a small dressing. These are left on for a week as you experience rhinoplasty recovery. You will not need to deal with having your nose packed with gauze, so your recovery will be more comfortable. After the week is done, the splint and dressing are removed.

Find out more about rhinoplasty recovery and the various care directions associated with it by contacting our office for an appointment. During a consultation, Dr. Thomas Kaniff will evaluate your nose. Dr. Kaniff is board-certified in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and has years of experience.
