Your path to the perfect nose: from dream to reality
A complete guide from first consultation to recovery
Consultation and nose modelling
The doctor reviews your nose, hears your expectations and does the essential checks to select the most effective correction method
Pre-surgery check-up
You must complete full lab testing before surgery: complete blood count, biochemistry, coagulation panel, X-rays of the chest and sinuses
The surgery
With the chosen method and under general or local anaesthesia, the surgeon performs the rhinoplasty and reshapes the nose
Step-by-step surgical process
Rhinoplasty begins with an individual consultation, 3D modelling of the nose and an evaluation of the septum and breathing. Once pre-op preparation is complete — tests, a CT scan and specialist consultations — the patient proceeds to surgery.
- Anaesthesia — classic general anaesthesia or TIVA (intravenous anaesthesia), chosen by complexity
- Access — depending on the surgeon's choice, open (external incision on the columella) or closed (all incisions internal)
- Correcting bone and cartilage — an ultrasonic piezo device keeps trauma to tissue and vessels minimal
- New nose shaping — extra tissue is removed or a graft added; the bridge, tip, nostrils or septum are given a new form
- Sutures — placed with atraumatic, self-absorbing or cosmetic materials
- Fixation — we place packing and an external splint to stabilise the form
Inpatient stay
Every procedure takes place in the clinic's inpatient unit. You stay there for one day after surgery
Recovery period
After surgery comes a recovery course — relief of swelling, monitoring of your nose and care tips. Full healing takes about 4 months on average, and you see the first results after two weeks
Post-op check-ups
Until the year is out, get a post-op consultation with our plastic surgeon free of charge. The doctor evaluates the rhinoplasty outcome, monitors your recovery and responds to all your questions

Preparing for nose surgery
A successful surgery starts with preparation 21 days before rhinoplasty. Our plastic surgeon will provide a list of tests at your first appointment.
Complete blood count plus ESR, differential and platelet count
Urinalysis
Infection tests: HIV, HBsAg, anti-HCV, Treponema pallidum antibodies
Blood type and Rh factor
Biochemistry of the blood (total protein, urea, uric acid, creatinine, glucose, total, direct and indirect bilirubin, ALT, AST, K, Na, Cl, cholesterol)

Electrocardiogram (ECG) with report
Doppler ultrasound / duplex scan of the leg veins
Chest X-ray or fluorography with report
CT scan of the paranasal sinuses
After the full lab work-up — a physician's report confirming no contraindications to surgery
3–5 days before surgery you need to
- Stop smoking and drinking alcohol
- Say no to swelling-causing food — salty, fatty, fried, spicy; stop medications that alter blood clotting (after agreeing with your doctor)
- Limit physical activity
- Hold off on cosmetic treatments that hurt the skin: scrubs, peels, etc.
Important!
- Each test must be on a separate form
- The facility's stamp and doctor's signature are required
- In advance of the hospital stay, purchase class 2 compression stockings
- The day you have surgery, take your last food and drink at least 6 hours before the planned time
- Anyone with chronic conditions or under a specialist's regular care must get clearance from that specialist for elective surgery under general anaesthesia
Recovery after rhinoplasty: stages and advice
The surgery is only half the story — recovery after nose surgery is just as important. Proper healing defines how aesthetic and harmonious the final result will be. City Medical Centre monitors recovery closely across three phases: early, middle and late
Early phase
- In the first 24 hours after rhinoplasty, the patient is monitored in the inpatient unit
- Days 1–3: you use your mouth to breathe, with splints in the nostrils
- Swelling occurs, and congestion or bruising is possible
- Day 7: splints are taken out. The aluminium splint is worn up to 14 days, and on day 14 it comes off with the stitches
- No bending over, touching your nose or wearing glasses
Middle phase
- Swelling eases over time, but the tip and bridge can stay puffy
- For a month: no exercise, bathhouse, sauna, pool, hot baths or sun
- Sleep only on your back, half-sitting
- Avoid glasses and makeup around the nose
Late phase
- For 1–1.5 months after nose surgery you may feel mild congestion
- 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
Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular and time-tested aesthetic procedures, but like any surgery it is not free of certain risks. To lower the chance of complications, our clinic provides careful preparation before surgery and monitoring after it.
Possible complications after surgery
Swelling and bruising
A normal body reaction, but excessive cases need monitoring
Bleeding
Can occur during the first days, especially if the rules are not kept
Infection
An extremely rare complication caused by poor hygiene
Nose shape irregularities
Asymmetry, septum shift, uneven cartilage fixation
Impaired breathing
Possible from over-removal of tissue 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. The doctor's skill and experience are key to safe rhinoplasty.
- Full diagnostics before surgery. Involves tests, CT, ECG and checks by the surgeon and anaesthetist.
- Follow the recovery regime. Don't touch your nose or remove the dressing on your own; avoid sport, sun, alcohol and tobacco.
- Antibiotic prophylaxis. Prescribed when indicated to prevent infection.
- Surgeon follow-ups. Regular visits catch even the smallest deviations and fix them at an early stage.
- Psychological readiness. Patients must realise the final result is seen only after 1–1.5 years.
Important: difficulty breathing, severe pain, high fever or a change in shape after rhinoplasty mean you should contact your doctor immediately.
Rhinoplasty at City Medical Centre is done with modern technologies and safe materials, under constant medical supervision that minimises complication risk.

Rhinoplasty:
frequently asked questions
When is the best time for rhinoplasty?
The optimal age is from 18 to 45, when the nose is fully developed and tissues heal well. With medical indications, an older patient can have surgery if general health permits
How do I prepare for rhinoplasty?
To prepare, you'll have consultations with the plastic surgeon, lab tests (CBC, biochemistry, coagulation, infection tests), an ECG, a chest X-ray and an X-ray or CT of the nose. A week before surgery, stop anticoagulants, alcohol and smoking. Light meals the day before; nothing to eat 6 hours before surgery
Rhinoplasty vs septoplasty: what's the difference?
Rhinoplasty — surgery to change the appearance of the nose (an aesthetic goal) and improve its function if breathing is impaired.
Septoplasty — a surgical fix for the nasal septum that restores normal breathing without changing how the nose looks outside.
It is common to combine both surgeries, especially with a deviated septum plus aesthetic concerns. The outcome is a harmonious look and restored full breathing. At City Medical Centre . we offer rhinoseptoplasty, a combined surgery solving both tasks in one go
What are the risks of rhinoplasty?
Any operation carries possible swelling, bruising, infection, bleeding, temporary breathing problems and minor asymmetry. To keep risks minimal, City Medical Centre employs modern techniques, anaesthesia and equipment, plus post-op monitoring and recovery therapy
When will I see the result?
Swelling subsides and first improvements appear (2–3 weeks), but judging the final rhinoplasty result is possible in 1–1.5 years, when tissues fully settle
Can I breathe through my nose after surgery?
Partial blockage of the nasal passages by splints or swelling is possible in the first days after surgery. Breathing normally returns in full within 1–2 weeks, depending on the extent of surgery and your body
Will there be visible scars?
When rhinoplasty is closed, incisions stay inside and no external scars appear. When it is open, a barely visible scar remains on the columella (the bridge between the nostrils), fading almost fully over time. Our doctors use microsurgical techniques and quality sutures so that scars stay minimal
How much will rhinoplasty change my appearance?
Rhinoplasty improves aesthetics and makes facial features more harmonious, without loss of individuality. With 3D modelling the predicted result is visible in advance, and you agree on changes with your surgeon
Rhinoplasty cost at City Medical Centre?
With the current discount, rhinoplasty at City Medical Centre costs $4,200 instead of $6,000. Your first consultation is free.
What does the rhinoplasty price depend on?
The price depends on how extensive the surgery is and is determined at the consultation: the doctor states the exact price after examining your nose and facial proportions.
What does the rhinoplasty price include?
The surgery under general anaesthesia, one day in the inpatient unit, medical monitoring and a free follow-up check-up. The result comes with a lifetime guarantee from the clinic.
How much is a consultation?
Your first consultation at City Medical Centre is free. The doctor examines your nose, evaluates facial proportions and states the exact cost of surgery.

Rhinoplasty: the art of harmony and function
Rhinoplasty (nose job) —
one of the most delicate and widely performed plastic surgeries, intended to reshape the nose in keeping with the individual proportions of the nose and whole face. Modern rhinoplasty is complex surgical work, not just a surgery to alter the nose's look, and it seeks an aesthetic ideal without damaging health.
What is rhinoplasty, or nose reshaping surgery?
Rhinoplasty is, at heart, a comprehensive solution. It fixes both congenital and acquired deformities of the nose — for instance, following a nasal injury. Patients frequently worry about a dorsal hump or a nose that is too wide. The nasal tip (tip rhinoplasty) or the nostrils (alar rhinoplasty) can also be corrected. The surgery plan is built individually for each patient, taking every feature of the nose into account.
How is the surgery performed?
Depending on complexity, rhinoplasty takes 1.5 to 3 hours and is performed under general anaesthesia. There are two main approaches — open rhinoplasty and closed rhinoplasty. Open rhinoplasty is based on a small incision on the columella (the tissue between the nostrils), which lets the surgeon view all nasal structures fully. Closed rhinoplasty is done through incisions inside the nose, without visible scars.
The technique depends on your goals and is chosen by the surgeon. Correcting an upturned nose or complexly reshaping the nasal bones and bridge, for example, often requires open access.
Recovery and results
After the operation, caring for the nose is essential. An aluminium splint covers the nose, while special silicone splints go inside. Nasal function is limited at first but recovers quickly. The final rhinoplasty result can be assessed in 1–1.5 years, after the swelling has fully subsided.
Why trust the professionals?
Rhinoplasty is a big step. When done well, it gives a new nose that blends perfectly with your features and works flawlessly. Every parameter is assessed in detail by the surgeon at the consultation — nose size, tip projection, the septum and nasal lining. 3D modelling lets you see your future nasal proportions before rhinoplasty is performed.
Instead of just searching the web for rhinoplasty photos, book a consultation to discuss what modern rhinoplasty can and cannot do for you. We specialise in correcting external nasal deformities and nose reshaping.

Everything about rhinoplasty for New York patients
There are two main approaches. Closed rhinoplasty is done through incisions inside the nose and leaves no visible scars. Open rhinoplasty uses a small incision on the columella, the tissue between the nostrils, giving the surgeon a full view of all structures. For New York patients, the choice depends on goals: complex reshaping of the bones and bridge often calls for the open approach.
What happens after surgery? For the first day you stay under observation in the inpatient unit. Swelling gradually subsides, though the tip and bridge may remain swollen for some time. Bending over, touching the nose and wearing glasses or makeup around it are off-limits early on. The final result for patients from New York can be judged after 1–1.5 years, once tissues fully stabilise.
The consultation costs nothing and gives a realistic forecast: facial proportions are assessed, a 3D model of the future nose is shown and a personal surgery and recovery plan is drawn up. After that, the fee for rhinoplasty is $4,200 with inpatient care, dressings and follow-ups included. Patients from New York can book via the form or message us in any messenger.
