First, what should I pay attention to in nasal plastic surgery?

2. Clean the inner edge of nostril and all sutures with a cotton swab dipped in hydrogen peroxide, keep it clean, and then apply a thin layer of erythromycin eye ointment. Doing so can prevent scabbing. You can also send a cotton swab into your nostrils for cleaning until the cotton reaches the length, being careful not to be too deep. As long as the action is gentle, there will be no tingling inside the nose. This step is recommended by the doctor.
Please avoid strenuous activities (such as aerobic exercise, weight lifting and bending). ) in the first 3 weeks after operation. Then slowly increase the activity in the next two weeks to get back to normal before the third week.
4. Avoid lifting more than 5 kg within 3 weeks after operation. Please avoid hitting your nose within 4 weeks after operation.
5. After the operation, the nasal skin and incision will be sensitive to sunlight. Please pay attention to sun protection within 6 months. If you have to stay in the sun for a long time, please wear a wide-brimmed hat and/or use a better sunscreen (SPF-20 or higher) to resist ultraviolet rays.
6. If there is a nasal splint after operation, wear it for at least two weeks every 24 hours, and then wear it before going to bed at night for three months.
7. During wearing the nasal splint, you can go to the beauty salon to wash your hair. Pay attention to prevent the nasal splint from getting wet.
8. After removing the nasal splint, gently clean the nose and make up with soap with little irritation. If your nose is dry, you can use a moisturizer.
9. The facial mask can only be used two weeks after operation, and a slight facial beauty massage can be done one month later.
10, after removing the splint, don't wear glasses or put anything else on your nose for 4 weeks. Frame glasses should be tied to the forehead. Contact lenses can be worn as long as the swelling subsides enough to be put in.
Second, how to care after nose plastic surgery
1, local cold compress with ice pack at the beginning of operation can reduce postoperative swelling. From the fifth day after operation, local hot compress should be done to promote recovery.
2, rest: simple rhinoplasty, can not be hospitalized, pay attention to rest at home after surgery.
3. The prosthesis has not been wrapped by fibrous membrane within one week after operation, and it is in an unstable stage. Be extra careful not to touch, squeeze or bump this part.

Some diseases need to take traditional Chinese medicine or steroid drugs. People with such diseases and diabetes may take longer to heal their wounds.
6. The menstrual period has little effect on the operation, but there may be more bleeding during or after the operation and the swelling may be more serious. Therefore, rhinoplasty is best to avoid menstrual period.
7. Generally, male rhinoplasty has more bleeding than female, and it takes longer to reduce swelling. According to the different methods of rhinoplasty, the recovery period is different. Therefore, we should choose the appropriate surgical method according to our spare time and physical condition. 3-4 hours before rhinoplasty, it is best not to eat, try to keep an empty stomach and don't wear any jewelry.

9. You should take medicine according to the prescription. When the swelling is not completely relieved, your nose will look a little askew, or you will feel your nose together. These are normal phenomena, don't worry. If there is bleeding in the nose, just wipe it gently. There is scab in the nose, so it's best not to pull it out forcibly and don't touch it with your hands often.
