Rhinoplasty can be performed on men and women of all ages. However, rhinoplasty is not recommended before the completion of the physical development stage, in other words, before 16-17 years of age. If you think your nose is unproportional, if you have a nasal hump, if your nose looks very large when viewed from the front, if you have nasal septum deviation, or if your nostrils are too large and wide, you are a suitable candidate for this surgical procedure.
The first thing to do before having a rhinoplasty operation is to consult a plastic surgeon. During the consultation, your physician will check your emotional and physical health, and give you information about the procedure. In addition, you should inform your physician about the treatments you are receive, the drugs you take, your allergies that cause difficulty in breathing, nasal spray you use (if any) and the frequency of its use.
During your physical evaluation, your physician examines the bones, shape and size of your nose. He/she may also recommend additional operations and treatments to meet your expectations in the best possible way.
