Nose Taping to Reduce Scar Tissue and Swelling After Rhinoplasty

Taping of the nose after a rhinoplasty can reduce the space underneath the skin by pushing the skin down onto the new cartilage and bone shape. This will reduce swelling which will then reduce scar tissue after a nosejob. Not every patient needs to tape. Taping of the nose after a nose job is best in patients with thick skin or oily skin or patients with excessive swelling. Taping of the nose helps greatly when partaking in activities that increase swelling such as exercise, flying, being out in the sun or sleeping more flat. All of the above mentioned activities increase swelling and scar tissue thus taping of the nose helps reduce the extra swelling and extra scar tissue that may result from above activities.
Dr. Shervin Naderi is a well known Board Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon and an exclusive Rhinoplasty Specialist. We have several other nose taping videos as well. Please review all for more hints and pearls.

[@TamaEnergy]

My doc doesnt agree with taping after the inital 2 weeks. Increases risk of pulling the skin back up when people take it on and off

[@ecara217]

You can use adhesive remover to prevent that. The adhesive remover makes it so that the tape just slides off.

[@MejiaSteezeria]

Love that you reply to the many questions you get, I removed my cast a day ago and I looked inside my nostril and on the inside, not on septum but on the lit inside nostril if that makes sense is a huge swollen ball. I have no idea what it is and sadly it’s extremely hard to get in contact with my surgeon. Is that normal?

Hello, I had my rhinoplasty a week ago and today my cast was removed, my nose is swollen as specked but nothing terrible, actually looks pretty good, my doctor usually recommends taping, but he told me he didn’t see the need of taping my nose. Just wondering is that common? Everything I see online shows a must to use tape after removing the cast. Just double checking, I will see my doctor in 2 weeks, he said the swollen will decrease a lot in the first month. I’m interested in your opinion. Thank you

hi. taping helps people with thick or oily skin but its not required for everyone. correct taping can help. improper taping can cause problems. so talk to your doctor and have him discuss it with you

yes overlapping

[@Jazzminyy]

Hi, is it ok to touch or push the tip while applying the last tape down the tip like that when you had the tip modified and its 2nd week after the rhinoplasty? Also, badly applied tape is it tape that is not even from top bridge to the tip of the nose? And I also heard from your other video that pinching of the nostril can happen from badly applied tape can you elaborate how would that occur? Should we not put pressure or press on the tape while applying on the tip / around the nostril ? Also my doctor didn't tape it down all the way to the cheek is it the same thing?

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.

Every video I've watched the tape isn't pulling the tip up to the degree mine is. Should I be worried?

In the first month we don’t recommend daily tape changes. We recommend changing the tape 1-2 times per week max. After the first month taping at night and removing during the day is less risky. The risk is during removal. If the tape “pulls up” on the skin it will cause more swelling and scar tissue. If the surgery was done well then reducing swelling improves tip definition. If the surgeon didn’t create a nice tip then this won’t make a big difference
