Hi dr. It's important to But this after the surgery ?? Please answer me because my doctor he doesn't put anything after he take the splint ??🌷

[@bbygrlpt2]

Is this good to prevent the nose to deviate again to one side??

[@Viankasem]

For how many months do you need to tape your nose after the surgery

[@BeautyAndHerBeasts]

Why wait 2-3 weeks to start taping though? I had my cast off day 8, and my surgeon wants me to start now. Nights only though.

[@ramendarchouhan3874]

Plz price

[@meramera5414]

Where is your clinic?

[@miamaria73]

3 months after. I heard 6 weeks after the plaster get off?

[@edwardjgrossmd]

Primera Plastic Surgery: Edward J. Gross, MD .hi thank u for this vidio..l have been do my nose now a month but l see that one side is haier than the other😭they not equal...what can l do.😔.

[@vesselofrecovery]

What if one doesn’t want the tip of his/her nose be uplifted and project at a 90 degree angle?

[@ett3335]

Follow the instruction of your surgeon. This wont change the shape of your nose it is only meant to keep it from swelling too much.

[@najat2486]

My surgeon never told to tape my nose after surgery . Is that going to affect my result ? 1:02

[@demipapatheohari5907]

Does this help in order to keep the shape of the nose after rhinoplasty as high as it possible?? besides it helps swelling. Please let me know 🙏🏻

[@mariahkemp969]

Yes helps keep your results nice and sharp how it looked instantly after the surgery was finished before they put the cast on

[@nishagupta6581]

Sir isspe koi hindi me video bnaye

[@A2_mgr56]

ET T can we tape nose after 1 week of rhinoplasty i mean after cast removal plz reply

[@muhammadyasir890]

Is this treetmint permanent

[@aliciag2963]

Will taping after 1 year still work? My surgeon never instructed me to tape my nose or to massage and I can still see the impressions on my nose after 1 year.

[@DianaPerez-dl3eg]

Did you find out?

[@clwt4075]

u should ask your clinic

[@chetandanu1814]

Sir please tell me My nose is very Faty

[@chloefox8471]

How do you remove the tape without pulling the skin? Pulling the skin will just cause more swelling so defeats the purpose of taping?

[@salemalk8474]

I personally used smthng called detachal, it makes it go off fairly easy. I guess every cleansing oil would work

[@clwt4075]

do it very slowly. and most doctors provide the patient with something to help with removing it.

[@chickenfoot2423]

wet the edges and gently peel that edge up when its soft enough

[@fragrancememoir2350]

Thank You. I've had 5 septoplasty with partial rhinoplasty and I can barely breathe and the shape of my nose is all over the place & awful. I need another surgery, of course, and the cartilage in my nose is shifting.. so I trying to tape since I have to still wait several more months for the next surgery.

[@Viankasem]

So what happens if you don’t tape at all?

[@oleksua74]

Nothing, tape doesn’t do much, only temporary swelling control

[@laurengrover7563]

I just had my surgery two days ago and my nose is taped SO high. The tip is like at a 45° angle upward. It's not just supported it's lifted to a freakish shape. My Dr keeps reassuring me it's intentionally done like that and that it is going to come down into perfect shape over the next few weeks after everything is removed but I'm so nervous that it's going to heal in this pig snout position in the meantime. Every video I've watched the tape isn't pulling the tip up to the degree mine is. Should I be worried?

[@Maryyeung12894]

No

[@CK51515]

How did your nose eventually heal?

[@Alex-zz6bh]

Can you please update us? How is it now??

[@alexprinsrealestateagent1263]

How long do you recommend taping your nose for after rhino? I am on my second rhino plasty and am greek italian with thicker skin. It is almost 12 weeks and I still tape everynight. I feel like my final result is showing more and don't know how much longer I should tape. I've heard 2-3 months. My doctor doesn't believe in taping, but I feel it is working. Does it really reshape the nose and would taping long term for up to the whole year of healing give optimal results? I'm willing to do whatever it takes, but don't want to waste my time taping if nothing will change. Thanks

[@ett3335]

Taping can not reshape the nose since the nose shape is dependant on the cartledge and bone. Nose taping only helps limit post op swelling which can become permanent in thick skinned patients because scar tissue begins to form causing the nose to look less defined. Studies have been done that show that this has no to little effect on normal skinned people and results only appear to be present with patients with thick skin.

[@SL-sb2mp]

ET T How do you know whether you have thick skin or thin skin?

[@ett3335]

If you can see the tip of your nose really defined in the mirror then you have thin skin, if you can't really make out the sharp or cartilage edges then you have thicker skin. Basically how defined the tip of your nose is. thats a rough estimate. it's best to see a dermatologist or plastic surgeon, they can tell right away. The majority of ethnic and hispanic people will have thick skin. But Caucasians can have thick skin too.

[@SL-sb2mp]

ET T Can i pleaseeee message u on instagram and show you a picture.

[@SL-sb2mp]

ET T Because this is my second nose job! When i was 17 i got my nose done but over time my nose tip got really fat and down turned.

[@xafsaqueenhooyomacan7387]

[@kristab6981]

Hi there, I had my cast removed today. When do I begin taping?

[@kristab6981]

Zainab princess thanks for your response! My doctor didn’t do any taping so I think I should probably just leave it alone. He didn’t even mention taping at all..

[@iTzShakenJoE]

My doctor told me not to tape. Now I'm taping 5 months after, and it's much smaller.

[@almasasrecipes7964]

@@iTzShakenJoE so you ur doctor didnt say to tap it but later u start taping ur self and ur feeling better? Cus my doctor disnt say that as well I removed the tap yeartday after 13 days of surger he just asked me to massage the sides of nose to to top

[@iTzShakenJoE]

@@almasasrecipes7964 No he didn't say to tape itt... I asked if I should, because I watched videos. He said no at first... then I go back in for a check up, and I told him what the hell my nose is still swollen... Can I tape now, and he said yes -______-.. so. I did...

[@adrianasabo5546]

[@ketkipadvi2476]

Is it necessary to tape after surgery....?? What is advantage of using this tape??

[@ett3335]

Keeps the swelling down which helps minimize scar tissue build up.

[@iTzShakenJoE]

I'm tapping now , and it's like 5 months after mine. my nose is much smaller now ..

[@Matttrinidad08]

@@iTzShakenJoE taping doesn’t change the shape or make it smaller maybe your referring to de-swelling of the nose

[@iTzShakenJoE]

@@Matttrinidad08 LOL. correct, smaller. Swelling going down essentially means your nose is smaller..

[@ModernMessiah]

How long after rhinoplasty can you use Biore blackhead strips?

[@annasofea8207]

Maximum 2-3 years

[@bthcas]

they are a waste of $ just get a real facial

[@ett3335]

i would wake 6-8 months. Honestly, i would wait 1 year. this is because when you remove tape or sticky stuff from your nose, it can pull the skin up from the bone and cause fluid and more swelling thus more scar tissue and less defined. So you have to be really careful. Wait 1 year.

[@mihaeladragne4443]

i think 6 months it s enough but better u should ask your doctor. mine recommended after 2 weeks peel off mask, but that mask it s not harmful at all.

[@ett3335]

@@mihaeladragne4443 Yeah, its just that when you pull this stuff off your skin, it lifts the skin off away from the bone and will cause even more swelling and if you do this regularly then scar tissue can build up. I would wait a few months.
