[Rhinoplasty] Pre Operative Care Tips for Rhinoplasty Procedures

To help prospective patients who want to get rhinoplasty, we decided to share a list of things patients need to follow before, and on the day of surgery. Following are the instructions we give to our patients who came to our clinic for rhinoplasty procedures. Adhering to the advice given will minimize the risk of complication during the surgery, and make the process convenient for both the surgeon and the patient.




<Before the Surgery>






  • Do not drink from 3 days before the surgery.

  • Communicate with the surgeon if there's any medication you are taking at the moment

  • Let the surgeon know if there's any allergy, or sensitivity to medication. Also communicate if you are currently suffering from any disease, and/or if you've been hospitalized in the past.


<Surgery Day>

  • Fast from 5 hours before the surgery (including from water, chewing gum and tobacco)

  • Bring containers for contact lenses if you wear them.

  • Arrive with a clean face without any makeup.

  • Bring a broad brimmed hat.

  • Remove nail polish before arriving at the clinic.

  • Do not bring any valuables.
