Preparing for Your Nose Reshaping Surgery

Proper preparation ensures optimal results and smooth recovery. Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh provides detailed pre-operative instructions tailored to each patient.

Two to Four Weeks Before Surgery

• Stop smoking completely—smoking impairs healing and increases complication risks

• Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and other blood-thinning medications

• Discontinue vitamin E, fish oil, and herbal supplements that affect bleeding

• Complete all required blood tests and medical clearances

• Arrange time off work—typically 7-10 days for desk jobs

The Day Before Surgery

• Do not eat or drink anything after midnight

• Wash your face thoroughly; avoid applying makeup or skincare products

• Arrange for someone to drive you home after the procedure

• Prepare your recovery space at home with extra pillows for elevation

• Pack comfortable, button-front clothing to avoid pulling over your face

Patients from Golf Course Extension, Vasant Kunj, and Sector 57 find that thorough preparation makes their surgical day stress-free.

The Day of Surgery: What to Expect

Arrival at Artemis Hospital

You will arrive at Artemis Hospital approximately two hours before your scheduled surgery time. The nursing staff will welcome you, complete final paperwork, and escort you to the pre-operative area.

Pre-Operative Preparation

Final Consultation: Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh meets with you to review the surgical plan, answer last-minute questions, and mark reference points on your nose.

Anaesthesia Discussion: The anaesthesiologist explains the anaesthesia process and addresses any concerns.

IV Placement: An intravenous line is placed for medication administration.

During the Procedure

Duration: 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on complexity

Anaesthesia: General anaesthesia ensures you sleep comfortably throughout

The Surgery: Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh carefully reshapes nasal structures—adjusting bone, cartilage, and tissue—to achieve your desired outcome whilst maintaining natural proportions

Closure: Incisions are meticulously closed using techniques that minimise scarring

Immediately After Surgery

You will awaken in the recovery room with a nasal splint protecting your nose. Mild grogginess from anaesthesia is normal. Once fully alert and stable, most patients return home the same day. Women and men from Palam Vihar, Anand Niketan, and M3M Golf Estate appreciate that overnight hospitalisation is rarely necessary.

Your Recovery Journey: Week by Week

Understanding the rhinoplasty recovery timeline helps you plan accordingly and know what to expect at each stage.

Days 1-3: Initial Recovery

• Rest with your head elevated to minimise swelling

• Expect bruising around the eyes—this is completely normal

• Take prescribed pain medication as directed

• Apply cold compresses to reduce swelling (not directly on nose)

• Avoid blowing your nose or any strenuous activity

Days 4-7: Gradual Improvement

• Swelling peaks around day 3-4, then begins subsiding

• Bruising starts fading from purple to yellow-green

• Light walking is encouraged to promote circulation

• Continue sleeping with head elevated

Patients from Shanti Niketan, Gulmohar Park, and Sector 42 typically feel comfortable enough for short outings by day 5-6.

Week 2: Splint Removal

Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh removes the nasal splint around day 7-10. This is an exciting milestone—you will see your new nose shape for the first time. Expect some residual swelling; your nose will continue refining over the coming months.

Weeks 3-6: Returning to Normal

• Most patients return to work and social activities

• Light exercise can resume around week 4

• Avoid contact sports and activities risking nasal impact

• Glasses should be worn with caution or supported by tape

Months 3-12: Final Results Emerge

The majority of swelling resolves by month 3, but subtle refinement continues for up to 12-18 months—particularly at the nasal tip. Patience is key; your final result is worth the wait.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How long will I need to stay at Artemis Hospital after rhinoplasty?

Most rhinoplasty patients return home the same day once they have recovered from anaesthesia and are stable. Overnight stays are occasionally recommended for complex cases or patients who prefer additional monitoring. Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh will advise based on your specific situation.

Q2: Will I experience significant pain after nose reshaping surgery?

Most patients describe discomfort rather than severe pain. Congestion, pressure, and mild headaches are common during the first week. Prescribed pain medication effectively manages any discomfort. By week two, most patients require only over-the-counter pain relief.

Q3: When will I see my final rhinoplasty results?

You will see noticeable improvement once the splint is removed around day 7-10. However, final results emerge gradually over 12-18 months as all subtle swelling resolves. The nasal tip, in particular, takes the longest to refine.

Q4: Can I wear glasses after nose reshaping surgery?

Glasses should be avoided or worn with caution for 4-6 weeks after surgery, as they can create pressure on the healing nasal bridge. Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh provides guidance on alternatives, including taping glasses to the forehead or using contact lenses temporarily.

Q5: What if I am not satisfied with my rhinoplasty results?

Choosing an experienced surgeon like Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh significantly reduces this likelihood. If concerns arise, revision rhinoplasty can address them—but patience is essential, as final results take 12-18 months to fully emerge.

Q6: How do I prepare my home for rhinoplasty recovery?

Stock up on soft foods, prepare a comfortable resting area with extra pillows for elevation, arrange entertainment you can enjoy whilst resting, and ensure someone is available to assist you during the first 24-48 hours.
