Nose; It is a dynamic organ composed of skeleton (bone and cartilage), skin and membranous supporting tissues. Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed by specialist physicians in cases where there is a deformity or asymmetry in the cartilage and/or structures forming the nose in the nose to eliminate this deformity.
The aim of this surgical procedure, which is called rhinoplasty, or rhinoplasty, is to correct the deformity of the nose. And it can often be done with the correction (deviation) surgery of bone/cartilage curvatures that prevent breathing in the nose.
The shaping of the bones in rhinoplasty is the most important step of the surgery. If a regular bone shaping is not done, there will be problems in the nose in the long term.
During the shaping of these bones, tunnels are created through the nose in the classical surgical technique. By placing bone chisels through this tunnel, we would try to break bones regularly in an area we could not see. Of course, the weakened and broken bone cracked from irregular points could heal irregularly during the healing period.
In recent years, with the development of technology, special instruments have started to be used in rhinoplasty.
In this technique, after the nose skin is removed, the membrane with the vein and nerve layer is entered and the bone tissue is exposed in a large way. Minimal operations are performed on the bones with the Ultrasonic Bone Cutter, that is, piezo. In this way, we can easily see where there is irregularity in the bones, where is the part that causes the curvature, and we can only shape the bone without damaging the blood vessels, soft tissues and nerves.
This device works with special vibrations, we can make any intervention to every point of the nose with its tips that change according to where we will intervene in the bone. The tool works only on the bone tissue and stops when it touches the soft tissues. Since the bones are not broken, healing is faster. Bruising, swelling and pain are almost absent. Long-term problems experienced during the recovery period are minimized.
However, there is a point we should not forget that this tool is just a tool, we are the surgeons who perform the surgery, and each surgeon will have different interpretation and use of this tool. You should not expect miracles from a device by relying on just one device.
