Why Should You Choose Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty?
What is ultrasonic rhinoplasty and how does it work?
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty is an innovative approach in the field of rhinoplasty and is performed with a special device that uses ultrasonic waves to intervene in the bone structure of the nose. While traditional rhinoplasty methods use tools such as hammers and chisels to shape the nasal bone, ultrasonic rhinoplasty allows the bone to be shaped in a more precise and controlled manner thanks to piezoelectric technology.
This method uses high-frequency sound waves to precisely shape the nasal bone and cartilage without damaging them. The ultrasonic device only affects bone tissue and protects soft tissues. This ensures that there are fewer undesirable effects such as bleeding, bruising and swelling during the procedure. Therefore, the healing process is faster and more comfortable.

- First week: Swelling and bruising may be mild, but are usually less than with traditional methods.
- 2-3 weeks: Most people can return to their daily activities.
- 3-6 months: Most of the swelling disappears and final results begin to be seen.

Yes, ultrasonic rhinoplasty offers a permanent solution. The new shape of the nose is maintained for a long time, but changes may occur in the nose with the aging process.
Yes, nose shape and size can be aesthetically reconstructed with ultrasonic rhinoplasty. The nose can be reduced or given the desired shape by precisely shaping the bone and cartilage in the nose with ultrasonic tools.
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty is performed with ultrasonic tools instead of the hammer and chisel used in traditional techniques. In this way, a more controlled cut is achieved in bone tissue and less damage is caused to soft tissues. This difference may manifest itself in less bruising and swelling during the healing process.
Operation time may vary between 1.5 – 3 hours depending on the changes to be made and the nose structure. However, this period may vary depending on the surgeon’s experience and the patient’s needs.
- First few weeks: Sleeping with your head elevated helps reduce swelling.
- Avoiding hard blows: The nose should be protected from trauma as it may be sensitive in the first months.
- Sun protection: Since swelling and bruises are sensitive, it is recommended to avoid direct sunlight during the healing process.
- Following the care instructions recommended by the doctor: Following the instructions given regarding nasal care and cleaning accelerates healing.
