What is an Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty?
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty, otherwise known as Ultrasonic Rhinosculpture, Piezo rhinoplasty, or Diamond rhinoplasty in Tijuana, B.C. What is Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty? It’s a new method for precisely sculpting the nasal bones during a rhinoplasty procedure. Open ultrasonic rhinoplasty allows the surgeon to sculpt the bone with the aid of high-frequency ultrasonic oscillations. The surrounding soft tissue is preserved which means less bruising, less swelling, and a quicker recovery. We are one of the few to offer Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty in Tijuana, B.C
Ultrasonic Rhinosculpture
Traditionally, a rhinoplasty procedure includes surgeons using a hammer and chisel to reshape the nasal bones. As a result of the lack of precision with these tools, contouring problems could occur. The use of powered tools was still resulting in the same complications.
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty is a new motorized device that uses sound waves to contour the nose. This reshapes the nose and removes humps. Unlike older methods of rhinoplasty, ultrasonic rhinoplasty only affects the bones, with no additional damage to other tissue. There is less trauma to the nose, and as a result, there is less bruising and swelling afterward. This method means there are also fewer tissue and bone healing complications.
Rhinoplasty Candidates
You will be considered an eligible candidate for the procedure if you:
- Are wanting to alter the appearance of your nose
- Are 18 years or older
- Have reasonable expectation about what the procedure can achieve
- Are physically and mentally healthy
- Are a non-smoker, or will be able to stop smoking prior to the procedure and during the recovery period
Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty Procedure
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty is performed as an outpatient surgical procedure. This means you will be able to return home the same day as your procedure; you will not have to stay overnight in a hospital. You can leave as soon as the effects of the anesthetic have worn off.
The ultrasonic rhinoplasty involves opening the skin on the nose, exposing the bone and cartilage. The reshaping of the bone is done using ultrasonic energy. This is a very precise technique and allows for more accurate contouring of the nasal bones. Only bone can absorb the ultrasonic energy, so there is no damage to the surrounding tissue, cartilage, blood vessels, and mucosal lining.
This method results in less bleeding, causing less bruising and swelling, which means there is a quicker recovery period.
Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty Recovery
The recovery period is faster compared to traditional rhinoplasty.
There will be minimal bruising and swelling as a result of the ultrasonic energy technique.
You may need to take up to one week off work to fully recover. This will vary from person to person and will depend on the type of job you have. Traditional rhinoplasty patients often require two weeks off work.
You will have to avoid strenuous physical activity and avoid physical contact with the nose, for example accidentally hitting the nose.
It is recommended that you sleep in an elevated position with several pillows. This will help to reduce any swelling that may occur. It is best to sleep on your back, rather than on your front or sides, to avoid any contact with the nose.
It is best to avoid excess sun exposure for the first few months following the procedure. Make sure to wear a hat, seek shade, or apply sunscreen when you are in the sun, as the nose will be prone to sunburn.
