The most preferred aesthetic operation for men, as for women, is rhinoplasty. Compared to women, men's nose structure and aesthetic expectations have significant differences. Men generally demand a more masculine nose structure. These expectations include maintaining stronger lines, a straight nasal bridge and a natural appearance that is in harmony with the face. The aim should be to achieve a natural and facially compatible result rather than changing the nose structure significantly.
When planning rhinoplasty in men, the anatomical structure of the nose and skin thickness are taken into consideration. Men's nasal skin is generally thicker and their cartilage structure is stronger. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the durability of the nasal structure in the interventions performed. In male rhinoplasty, very thin and curved noses are generally not preferred, a straighter and more masculine profile is sought.
One of the basic expectations in rhinoplasty for men is to bring the nose into proportion with the face while preserving its natural appearance. An aesthetic intervention that is too upturned or prominent can often create an unnatural appearance. For this reason, male patients expect natural results that will not be noticeable to those around them that they have had surgery. As a result of aesthetic interventions, patients want to have a nose structure that is compatible with the general lines of their face and is not exaggerated.
Although rhinoplasty in men is generally similar to the techniques applied to women, a special plan is made for each nose structure. A detailed evaluation process is carried out before the operation, and a plan is created considering the patient's expectations and nose structure. The surgery usually lasts 1-2 hours and is performed under general anesthesia. The recovery process usually involves swelling in the first week, but this condition decreases rapidly. Patients can return to their social lives within an average of one week. It may take a few months for the nose to take its final shape.
Male rhinoplasty requires a different approach than women, both in terms of the nature of the nasal structure and aesthetic expectations. Therefore, it is important to aim for the most natural and satisfactory results by making a plan appropriate to each patient's facial features, nasal structure and personal expectations.
