What should I pay attention to when doing nose thread reduction?

In modern society, plastic surgery has become a very common and normal thing. Among them, buried thread nose reduction surgery is one of them. It can help us make the nose straighter, and the whole person looks deeper and more energetic. So, how is buried thread nose reduction done? What should we pay attention to before and after undergoing thread nose reduction surgery?

1. Overview

The edge of the nose should be a harmonious arc, not too high, too low, too straight or asymmetrical. When the nose ala droops, the front, back or entire nose ala edge may droop, and the columella may be covered when viewed from the side, forming a pseudo-columella invagination deformity, which should be differentiated from true columella invagination.

2. Common Types

The following methods can lift and correct the deformity: (1) marginal resection; (2) trimming of the lateral crus of the alar cartilage and the lower edge of the septal cartilage; (3) partial resection of the alar lining.

Retraction of nose

Retracted nose wings are usually due to congenital deformity, which can easily create the illusion of drooping columella. The treatment method is: make an incision above the nasal vestibule or at the base of the outer side of the nose, secretly separate the edge of the nose, separate a cavity to accommodate the implant between the external nasal skin and the vestibule skin, cut an elliptical or rectangular cartilage above the outer foot of the nose cartilage, implant it into the separated cavity at the retracted nose, fix the transplant in a mattress style and leave a thread to pull it downward, and fix it to the upper lip with tape.

Thick nose

Thickened nasal wings are more common in yellow and black people. They are often accompanied by drooping nasal wings. The thickened and drooping nasal wing tissue can be removed.

3. Precautions before surgery

1. Patients should choose appropriate silicone prostheses according to their own requirements under the guidance of doctors, and take skull X-rays if necessary;

2. Check your health;

3. Women should avoid the menstrual period.

4. Postoperative precautions

1. Minimize activities after surgery to avoid touching the surgical site;

2. It is strictly forbidden to touch the surgical incision with your hands after surgery. And avoid getting the incision wet.

3. Use antibiotics for 3-5 days to prevent infection;

4. The sutures in the nose will be removed after 5-7 days. There will be local swelling after surgery, which will gradually subside after four days. Avoid weight bearing, which will increase the swelling;

5. Avoid sun exposure and violent impact for two months after the operation. Very few patients may experience implant rejection (swelling that does not subside within three weeks and yellow fluid leaking from the incision), and should go to the hospital immediately to have the implant removed.

6. Avoid spicy and irritating foods.

7. Smoking is strictly prohibited within two weeks after surgery.

8. Sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited for two weeks after the operation.

I believe that after the above introduction by the editor, everyone should now have a certain understanding of the surgery for nose wing reduction. In fact, this is just a very easy surgery. The most important thing is to prevent the wound from becoming inflamed and to maintain the best healing of the wound, so that you can see the results very well.
