Your path to the perfect nose: from dream to reality
A complete guide from first consultation to recovery
Consultation and nose modelling
The doctor assesses your nose, discusses your wishes and runs the necessary checks to choose the best correction method
Pre-surgery check-up
Full lab tests are required ahead of surgery: a complete blood count, biochemistry, a coagulation panel, and chest and sinus X-rays
The surgery
Rhinoplasty is done by the surgeon with the method chosen, under local or general anaesthesia, to correct the nose's shape
Step-by-step surgical process
It all begins with a personal consultation, 3D modelling of the nose and an assessment of the septum and how you breathe. After preparation for surgery — tests, a CT scan and consultations with specialists — the operation takes place.
- Anaesthesia — based on complexity, either classic general anaesthesia or TIVA (intravenous anaesthesia)
- Access — the surgeon chooses the open (external incision on the columella) or closed technique (all incisions inside the nose)
- Correcting bone and cartilage — an ultrasonic piezo device keeps trauma to tissue and vessels minimal
- Forming the new nose — the surgeon removes excess tissue or adds a graft and reshapes the bridge, tip, nostrils or septum
- Sutures — with atraumatic, self-dissolving or cosmetic suture material
- Fixation — the shape is stabilised with packing and an external splint
Inpatient stay
We perform all procedures in the clinic's inpatient unit. After the operation you remain there one day
Recovery period
After surgery you go through a recovery course — swelling relief, nose monitoring and care advice. On average, full healing takes about 4 months, and first visible results appear after two weeks
Post-op check-ups
Until year-end, our plastic surgeon offers a free post-op consultation. The doctor evaluates your rhinoplasty result at the check-up, monitors how recovery is going and answers all your questions

Preparing for nose surgery
Preparation should begin 21 days before rhinoplasty for the surgery to be successful. Our plastic surgeon hands you the list of tests at the first visit.
Complete blood count: ESR, differential, platelets included
Urinalysis
Infection panel: HIV, HBsAg, anti-HCV and Treponema pallidum antibodies
Blood type and Rh factor

3–5 days before surgery you need to
- Stop smoking and drinking alcohol
- Remove swelling-promoting foods from your diet: salty, fatty, fried, spicy; stop medicines that affect blood clotting (check with your doctor)
- Limit physical activity
- Stay away from cosmetic treatments that injure skin: scrubs, peels, etc.
Important!
- Each test must be on a separate form
- The facility's stamp and doctor's signature are required
- Have class 2 compression stockings ready in advance for your stay in hospital
- On surgery day, food and drink must end at least 6 hours before the time of the operation
- For elective surgery under general anaesthesia, patients with chronic conditions or regular specialist care need a specialist's clearance
Recovery after rhinoplasty: stages and advice
Healing after nose surgery is no less important than the surgery itself. The final result's aesthetics and harmony depend on proper recovery. At City Medical Centre recovery is closely supervised and has three phases: early, middle and late
Early phase
- For the initial 24 hours post-rhinoplasty, the patient stays in the inpatient unit under observation
- Days 1–3: breathing is through the mouth, with splints in the nostrils
- Swelling shows up; congestion and bruising are possible
- Day 7: splints come out. The aluminium splint stays up to 14 days; stitches come out on day 14 with the splint
- No bending over, touching your nose or wearing glasses
Middle phase
- Swelling eases over time, but the tip and bridge can stay puffy
- A month off exercise, bathhouse, sauna, pool, hot baths and the sun
- Sleep only on your back, half-sitting
- Avoid glasses and makeup around the nose
Late phase
- Mild nasal congestion may remain for 1–1.5 months post-surgery
- The nose takes its final shape in 1–1.5 years
- Keep seeing your surgeon during this time

What not to do after rhinoplasty
Remove dressings or splints yourself
Take hot baths or use a tanning bed
Exercise or do heavy physical work
Smoke or drink alcohol for at least a month
Press on your nose, wear glasses or sleep face down
For quicker recovery and an ideal result after rhinoplasty, we advise
- Keep a regular rest and sleep routine
- Humidify the air indoors
- Take a course of microcurrent or ultrasound therapy.
- Follow the prescribed diet, avoid salty and spicy food
Complications and risk management
Although it is among the most popular and well-established aesthetic operations, nose surgery, like any surgery, has certain risks. Our clinic reduces the chance of complications after rhinoplasty through thorough pre-op preparation and post-op monitoring.
Possible complications after surgery
Swelling and bruising
A normal body reaction, but excessive cases need monitoring
Bleeding
Can arise in the first days, especially if restrictions are disregarded
Infection
An extremely rare complication caused by poor hygiene
Nose shape irregularities
Asymmetry, septum shift, uneven cartilage fixation
Impaired breathing
Possible with excessive tissue removal or individual anatomy
Thick scarring
More common with open rhinoplasty and a tendency to keloids
Psychological disappointment
More common in patients with unrealistic expectations
How to avoid complications after rhinoplasty?
- Choose an experienced surgeon. Safe rhinoplasty depends on the doctor's skill and experience.
- Full diagnostics before surgery. Consists of tests, CT, ECG, and surgeon and anaesthetist exams.
- Follow the recovery regime. Don't remove the dressing yourself or touch your nose; avoid sport, sun, alcohol and cigarettes.
- Antibiotic prophylaxis. Prescribed when indicated to prevent infection.
- Follow-up visits. Regular surgeon check-ups identify minor deviations early and correct them.
- Psychological readiness. The patient needs to understand the final result appears in 1–1.5 years.
Important: if rhinoplasty is followed by difficulty breathing, severe pain, high fever or shape changes, contact your doctor immediately.
Rhinoplasty at City Medical Centre is carried out with modern technology, safe materials and ongoing medical supervision to minimise the risk of complications.

Rhinoplasty:
frequently asked questions
When is the best time for rhinoplasty?
The optimal age is 18 to 45. By then the nose is fully formed and tissues still heal well. With medical indications, surgery can be done at an older age if your general health allows
How do I prepare for rhinoplasty?
Preparation includes consultations with the plastic surgeon, lab tests (CBC, biochemistry, coagulation, infection tests), ECG, chest X-ray, and an X-ray or CT of the nose. A week before surgery stop anticoagulants, alcohol and smoking. The day before — light meals; fast 6 hours before surgery
Rhinoplasty vs septoplasty: what's the difference?
Rhinoplasty — a surgery changing the nose's look (an aesthetic objective) and improving its function in cases of impaired breathing.
Septoplasty — a septum-correcting surgery that restores normal breathing and does not change the outer contour of the nose.
The two surgeries are often combined, notably when a deviated septum coexists with aesthetic concerns. This delivers a harmonious look and restores full breathing. At City Medical Centre . we perform rhinoseptoplasty — one combined surgery addressing both tasks at once
What are the risks of rhinoplasty?
Possible effects, as with any operation, are swelling, bruising, infection, bleeding, temporary breathing problems and small asymmetry. City Medical Centre applies modern techniques, anaesthesia and equipment to minimise risks, and provides post-op monitoring and recovery therapy
When will I see the result?
You'll see first improvements after the swelling eases (2–3 weeks), while the final rhinoplasty result is evaluated in 1–1.5 years, when tissues have fully stabilised
Can I breathe through my nose after surgery?
In the first days after surgery the nasal passages may be partly blocked by splints or swelling. Full breathing usually returns within 1–2 weeks, depending on the extent of surgery and your body
Will there be visible scars?
With the closed technique, incisions are made inside, so external scars are absent. The open technique leaves a barely visible scar on the columella (the bridge between the nostrils), fading almost entirely as time passes. Microsurgical techniques and quality sutures help our doctors keep scars minimal
How much will rhinoplasty change my appearance?
Through rhinoplasty, facial features become more harmonious and aesthetics improve, with individuality preserved. 3D modelling shows the predicted result in advance so you and your surgeon can agree on changes
Rhinoplasty cost at City Medical Centre?
Rhinoplasty at City Medical Centre is $4,200 instead of $6,000 under the current discount. The initial consultation is free.
What does the rhinoplasty price depend on?
Cost is based on the extent of surgery and is fixed at the consultation, where the doctor gives the exact price after assessing your nose and facial proportions.
What does the rhinoplasty price include?
Operation under general anaesthesia, one inpatient day, the doctor's monitoring and a free check-up after the operation. A lifetime guarantee on the result is given by the clinic.
How much is a consultation?
The initial consultation at City Medical Centre is free of charge: the doctor examines your nose, reviews facial proportions and quotes the exact cost.

Rhinoplasty: the art of harmony and function
Rhinoplasty (nose job) —
one of the most delicate and popular plastic surgeries, performed to reshape the nose according to the individual proportions of the nose and the face as a whole. Modern rhinoplasty is not merely a cosmetic change to the nose but complex surgical work to achieve an aesthetic ideal safely for health.
What is rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery?
Essentially, rhinoplasty is a comprehensive solution. It corrects congenital as well as acquired nasal deformities, such as those after a nasal injury. A dorsal hump or an overly wide nose often troubles patients. Correction may also focus on the nasal tip (tip rhinoplasty) or the nostrils (alar rhinoplasty). Each patient's surgery plan is made individually, considering all features of the nose.
How is the surgery performed?
Performed under general anaesthesia, rhinoplasty takes 1.5 to 3 hours based on complexity. Two main approaches exist: open rhinoplasty and closed rhinoplasty. The open approach uses a small incision on the columella (the tissue between the nostrils), giving the surgeon a complete view of every nasal structure. The closed approach works through incisions inside the nose, with no visible scars left.
The surgeon selects the technique according to your goals. Correcting an upturned nose or complex reshaping of the nasal bones and bridge, for instance, often calls for the open approach.
Recovery and results
After surgery the nose requires care. An aluminium splint goes on the outside and special silicone splints are placed inside. Nasal function is restricted during the first days but returns quickly. The final rhinoplasty result can be evaluated in 1–1.5 years, when swelling has fully subsided.
Why trust the professionals?
Rhinoplasty is a significant step. Done well, it gives you a new nose that blends perfectly with your features and works without flaws. The surgeon assesses every parameter in detail at the consultation: nose size, tip projection, the septum and nasal lining. Thanks to 3D modelling, you see your future nasal proportions before rhinoplasty is performed.
Looking up rhinoplasty photos online is only a start. Book a consultation to discuss what modern rhinoplasty can and cannot do for you. We specialise in reshaping the nose and correcting external nasal deformities.
