Autologous fat rhinoplasty

Most people may choose silicone filling when performing rhinoplasty, because silicone is a material that is highly similar to human cartilage, and the retention rate of silicone rhinoplasty is also very high. However, as rhinoplasty surgery develops more and more, more materials that can be used for rhinoplasty are gradually being used in rhinoplasty surgery. Using your own fat to augment your nose is also a new technology, but what effect will it have?

Autologous fat rhinoplasty is a new type of rhinoplasty surgery. It uses liposuction technology to extract excess body fat. After screening and cleaning, the fat is implanted into the root of the nose and then shaped. Since the filling material used in autologous fat rhinoplasty is taken from one's own tissue, it avoids rejection and allergies between tissue and body. However, in order to prevent autologous fat from being absorbed by one's own cells, it should be injected in multiple times and in certain amounts. Autologous fat rhinoplasty surgery is less painful, has a convenient surgical procedure, uses the body’s own fat, is highly safe, and is loved by more and more beauty-conscious people.

Precautions

Preoperative precautions

A physical examination should be conducted before the operation to ensure that the patient is in good health and mental state, can correctly view the effect of the operation, and has no serious organ disease, coagulation disease, diabetes, immune disease, or neuromotor dysfunction; no anticoagulant drugs or aspirin should be taken half a month before the operation; there should be no local infection lesions at the surgical site; female patients should avoid the menstrual period as much as possible, take a bath before the operation, and keep clean.

Postoperative precautions

Receive intravenous drip for 3 days after the operation and keep the dressing dry; do not touch or squeeze the surgical site forcefully within one week after the operation, and be as gentle as possible when cleaning; if nasal crusts form in the nose, it is best not to pick them off forcibly, and do not touch them frequently with your hands; it is forbidden to wear glasses for about 2-4 weeks after rhinoplasty; insist on applying cold compresses to the face, and keep your head up for about 5 days. Even when lying down, use 2-3 quilts to raise the head or back, which will help reduce swelling as soon as possible; if you experience long-term discomfort after the operation, you should contact the hospital and the doctor in time, and do not take medicine without authorization.

Dietary precautions

Eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, because vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, which can promote wound healing. Onions, peppers, and leeks are exceptions because they are prone to cause infection and are not conducive to wound healing. Eat more meat, except musk deer, because meat contains fat. Because a lack of lipids can lead to impaired wound healing. Fish oil is rich in fatty acids and has anti-inflammatory effects, which are beneficial to wound healing, but you should avoid eating beef and mutton in the first few days after surgery. Eat some sugary fruits in moderation. For example: fruits like sugar cane, apples, pears, etc., the best ones are in season. Eat more protein-rich foods such as milk, eggs, and lean meat. Increasing protein in the diet after rhinoplasty can promote wound healing and reduce the chance of infection. After autologous fat rhinoplasty, you cannot smoke or drink, and you cannot eat spicy food. It is best to follow the dietary care methods given above to maintain your health, so that you can recover quickly.
