After secondary rhinoplasty surgery, there are certain precautions that need to be taken, similar to those after primary rhinoplasty surgery. In fact, since secondary rhinoplasty is a more complex operation, it is advisable to be even more cautious. Here are the things to consider after secondary (revision) nose surgery:
– In the first few days after the operation, it is recommended to consume soft and liquid foods.
– Resting and sleeping should involve using two pillows to keep the head elevated.
– Avoid heavy and intense physical activities for at least 1 month.
– It is normal to experience slight bleeding in the form of leakage after the surgery. However, if there is excessive bleeding, it is important to contact the operating doctor.
– Hair can be washed without water contact with the face.
– Additionally, teeth should be brushed with a soft brush without applying vigorous movements.
– Only medications recommended by the doctor should be used after the surgery, and blood-thinning medications should not be taken under any circumstances.
