Frequently Asked Questions

• I want to have cosmetic nose surgery, but I am 16 years old. Is this procedure possible at my age? It is advisable to wait until you are 17 or 18 years old, as the structures of the nose are fully matured by then. Performing rhinoplasty before this age might result in continued growth of the nose after the surgery, potentially negatively affecting the results.
• Once rhinoplasty is performed, are the results permanent? The benefits can be appreciated six months after the procedure, but the final results are seen after a year. Due to the complex structure of the nose and the varied reaction of tissues in each patient, approximately 12% of patients may need a touch-up, which is a minor revision.
• Is it possible to correct a rhinoplasty performed 18 years ago? This procedure is called secondary rhinoplasty and is more complicated than a primary intervention. However, it is always possible to correct or improve a surgery that did not meet the patient’s expectations. At Shape & Beauty, we are committed to providing an honest and accurate diagnosis to meet, as much as possible, our patients’ needs.
