Nose Filing

What is Nose Filing?

The most common problem of the patients who want to have a nose job is the bruising problem on the face and eyes after the procedure caused by breaking the nasal bone. Rhinoplasty with filing procedure, where such problems are not experienced, now become the mostly preferred method by the patients. With the nose filing method, the defects in the nose are rectified by meticulously filing with special tools similar to a pen. The sharp points, protrusions and excesses of the patient’s nose are filed and trimmed.

How to Perform a Nose Job via Filing?

Filing methods in nose aesthetic procedures are performed by applying local or general anaesthesia according to the patient’s and surgeon’s choice. Correction is performed for the hump and curvature of the nose with the nasal filing technique. The use of bandages and tampons after nose filing surgery is at the surgeon’s discretion. In the nose filing technique, there is no need to use tools to break the bone and a bandage can be used to support the bone tissue in the nose.

As in other aesthetic nose procedures, nose filing is performed after the completion of the development of the nasal bone. Nasal bone development age is known as 18 for women and 22 for men. In exceptional cases, the age limit can be lower. Since there is no bruising and swelling in the nose, the healing process of the nose filing is shorter. Patients start their daily routine in a short while.
