Abstract

Due to the great popularity and relative availability of surgical methods for correcting appearance, rhinoplasty steadily occupies a leading position among all types of plastic surgeries, while remaining difficult both in technical terms and in terms of the rehabilitation period. Often, edema after even sparing closed rhinoplasty using modern surgical methods, including piezotome, persists for a year or more, provoking the formation of fibrous tissue, which prompts the patient and the surgeon to revision surgery. With the increase in the number of repeated interventions on the tissues of the nose, the question arose of how to avoid certain complications, which, perhaps, will provide a predictable final result of the operation. Based on 3 years of experience with such patients, we have developed a protocol for the treatment of postoperative edema, which we actively use in our work both with patients after primary rhinoplasty and after repeated surgeries. Keywords: rehabilitation after rhinoplasty, rhinoplasty, treatment of surgical complications, postoperative edema, soft tissue edema, LLLT, neodymium laser.
