If your rhinoplasty is meant to correct the effects of an injury or a birth defect like a deviated septum, your insurance may contribute to the cost. If your procedure is intended for cosmetic purposes, you'll have to pay out of pocket. We accept financing through Credit Medical and Medicard to make the cost of care more manageable for patients on any budget.

Advanced Treatment Techniques  Based on Your Goals

Closed Rhinoplasty

Our plastic surgeons frequently perform closed rhinoplasty, which involves two discreet incisions on the inside of the nostrils. Closed rhinoplasty effectively treats cosmetic problems and deviated septums and is less invasive than an open technique. Many patients prefer the closed method as there is less chance of visible scarring with the final results. 

Open Rhinoplasty

Open rhinoplasty involves the same incisions inside the nostrils with an additional incision across the tissue that connects the two. This small external incision provides superior visibility and access to the internal structures of the nose. The open technique may be a better option for individuals needing more extensive corrections or cartilage grafts.

The Rhinoplasty Procedure

Rhinoplasty is usually performed on an outpatient basis at our surgical centre, meaning you won't have to stay overnight in our facility—you'll be released the same day as your procedure to recover at home. The surgery can take anywhere from one to three hours depending on your individual needs and involves several steps:

Anesthesia

Dr. Richard Bendor-Samuel or Dr. Louis Boileau will begin by administering general and local anesthesia to prevent you from feeling pain during surgery. Our team will carefully monitor your vitals throughout the procedure to ensure your safety.

Incisions

Your experienced surgeon will create incisions based on the technique chosen for your nose job to access the treatment area.

Contouring

Your plastic surgeon will make alterations to achieve the desired aesthetics. This may include removing small amounts of skin, centering the septum, and reshaping the nasal bones and cartilage. He may also perform a cartilage graft to fill in a depression or change the angle of the tip.

Finishing Touches

After your nose has been modified, your surgeon will re-drape the skin and close the incisions. He will apply packing gauze and a plastic splint over the nose to help maintain its new structure. After you wake from the general anesthesia, we'll discharge you to begin your recovery.

Recovering from Rhinoplasty Surgery
 

Side Effects

Patients may experience temporary numbness as well as minor bleeding, bruising, and dryness of the nose and/or throat in the days after surgery. Discomfort is usually minimal and can be controlled by using prescribed pain medication as directed. We recommend keeping your head elevated and using cold compresses to reduce swelling.

Bandages

Make sure to follow your surgeon's directions regarding bandages and keep the packing gauze in place for at least two days following your nose job. The splint is typically worn for about a week and can be taken off when the sutures are removed at your follow-up appointment. 

Activity

Patients can usually return to light activity a week after rhinoplasty surgery and can go back to school or work within 7-10 days. However, in the weeks after surgery, refrain from strenuous physical activity, including bending and moderate to heavy lifting. After about six weeks, you can return to your normal routine, including regular exercise.

Results

While the effects of your nose job will be visible after the swelling and bruising subside, it can take some time for the final results to become fully realized. Everyone heals differently, and it may take some individuals a year or longer to completely recover. However, once this period has passed, the effects are permanent and can be enjoyed for a lifetime.
