Q. Rhinoplasty precautions: After nose surgery, is it okay if my glasses press on my nose? image 1

Hello. I am Kim Hyung-taek, the CEO doctor of Kowon Plastic Surgery, who helps complete a neat overall flow.

Today, among rhinoplasty precautions, I was told about a case in which someone rode a bus wearing glasses after nose surgery and their body jolted, causing pressure on the nose, and they asked out of concern.

Q. Rhinoplasty precautions: After nose surgery, is it okay if my glasses press on my nose?

The bus in my neighborhood is a minibus.

I don’t know whether it was because it wasn’t a new bus or because of the substitute driver’s discretion, but I was sitting at the far left end of the back seat when the bus jolted a lot on a rough stretch, and my body suddenly lifted up over the bus seat.

Then I was thrown back down hard onto the bus seat, and gravity physically pressed on my lower back, which caused strain.

It felt almost like something was being torn, and my body shook a lot, so my head and face moved a lot too.

It had only been a few days since my nose surgery, and one of the rhinoplasty precautions is not to wear glasses after nose surgery, but I was wearing them because I couldn’t see. It felt like my nose was pressed hard by the glasses. Is that okay?

Also, I scratched inside my nose a little.

It is okay. You can go about your normal daily life, and if you had actually been hit hard enough to cause a problem, as in the rhinoplasty precautions, there would likely have been blood pooling inside the nose or other symptoms.

If it was only pressed by your glasses, without any other particular problems, please observe it for now.

If there is swelling, redness, or pain, you should visit the hospital where you had the surgery.

I hope you have a good outcome.

I hope this consultation answer was helpful.

Thank you.

This is a case of a hump nose and a bulbous nose treated with cartilage tying surgery.

Because the columella tip was also set inward, the philtrum appeared longer and the mouth looked more protruded, but:

by performing philtrum line correction at the same time, the impression of a protruding mouth improved and the side profile line was greatly refined.

This is a case of a person with a short upturned nose. The nostrils were also asymmetric.

The nose tip was extended using about 4 mm of silicone and ear cartilage.

After surgery, the look is more feminine and glamorous.

This is a person whose crooked nose and wide nostrils were corrected.

Through surgery, the nose tip was made to sit high in a straight, well-defined shape without drooping.

The bridge of the nose can also be felt as more feminine and lifted.
