The rhinoplasty procedure needs a period of 1 week. If there is a problem in nasal breathing, we operate inside of the nose and this operation is called rhinoseptoplasty. In rhinoseptoplasty, we put inside the plastic stents and anterior packings to prevent bleeding. We take the packings the next day, and the plastic stents in 1 week. In rhinoplasty, a thermal stent is placed on the bridge of the nose as the cast. This is also removed in 1 week. So, a period of 1 week will be enough to finish the surgery and the early consultations including dressings.
