Nose Implant

Postby TEE » Wed Jan 18, 2012 7:49 pm

Hi,

I was just wondering with the nose implant is this a very painful procedure? Do you need to be in hospital after this procedure?

How long is the recovery period?

Also can it fix a slight bump on the nose and the implant will reshape the nose?

Thanks
TEE

the procedure is done under anesthesia in my private and accredited surgical facility. there is no pain during and very little afterward. this is not a painful procedure. you go home the same day only a couple of hours after the procedure.

the recovery is really not bad. a week afterward when the splint comes off there is typically in my hands not very much swelling at all. if it is a slight bump then the implant may help straighten it o/w i would remove the bump and then put the implant on top.
best,
s.
