Does Asymmetry Occur After Rhinoplasty?

The cartilage and bone structures shaped during the rhinoplasty operation go through a healing process in which they fuse with the skin again during the healing process. During this process, a shrinkage occurs in the healing area. In this process, if the supports of the cartilage structures are not strong enough against these forces, they may change shape in the face of the forces of the wound healing process, and as a result, problems such as asymmetry may occur when the edema disappears. Apart from the support of cartilage structures, the use of atraumatic technique provides a healing process in which these forces such as edema and bruising are less.
