What does a nose job involve?

A nose job (rhinoplasty) is a cosmetic and functional surgical procedure. Whether the aim is to correct a broad nasal bridge or to improve breathing by adjusting the septum, the bone and cartilage of the nose are modified. The aim of rhinoplasty in Sweden is to create a shape that harmonises anatomically with the rest of your facial features. During your consultation, a very thorough clinical analysis is carried out to determine which technique is required.

Our techniques for rhinoplasty

To achieve a natural and medically sound result, our plastic surgeons use tried-and-tested and refined techniques for rhinoplasty in Stockholm.

Open rhinoplasty

The most common method for more extensive adjustments. A small incision is made across the septum, giving the plastic surgeon a clear view and maximum precision when reshaping the bone and cartilage.

Closed rhinoplasty

Means that all incisions are made on the inside of the nostrils. It is often used for minor adjustments, such as a limited rhinoplasty tip, and leaves no visible external scars.

Secondary rhinoplasty

An advanced procedure (reoperation) performed if a patient has previously undergone surgery and the anatomy requires further correction.

Gentle technology and medical precision

Regardless of which surgical technique is deemed best suited to your anatomy, our plastic surgeons use microsurgical instruments that minimise trauma to the delicate tissue. A gentle and precise approach is crucial for reducing bleeding and swelling following rhinoplasty. This not only promotes a smoother and safer healing process, but is also key to ensuring good blood circulation and optimal scarring.

Consultation before your operation

The first step is a consultation with a plastic surgery specialist. You choose whether you want to book an online appointment or meet us in person at the clinic. During the appointment, you will be given medical information about risks, current waiting times and which techniques are best for you.

You will receive a personalised treatment plan tailored to your body. After the appointment, you will meet with the coordinator to discuss preparations and aftercare, and to check on any waiting times.

The Evolution of You

Nose surgery
Step by step

To make you feel safe and well prepared, we have a clear and safe process from your first visit to your last follow-up. Here we give you an overview of how a nose surgery with us works, from start to finish.

Consultation

Medical assessment and choice of method

We will assess your anatomy and respiratory function and discuss the surgical approach (open or closed). The plastic surgeon will listen to your wishes and, based on your individual circumstances, plan the surgical approach that is best suited to you.

Before your procedure

Preparing for a safe operation

After your reflection period, the surgery will be booked. It is an absolute requirement to be completely smoke-free for one month before and after the procedure.

The day of the operation

Safe care at the clinic

On arrival, you will check in and be assigned a private room on the ward. You will meet your plastic surgeon and anaesthetist before the operation takes place.

After the operation

Awakening and initial rest

After the operation, you will spend some time in the recovery room before being taken back to your ward. On the ward, you will rest for a few hours and be served a light snack before going home the same day.

Recovery & healing

Self-care and convalescence guidelines

Sleep with your head held high. Avoid physical exertion completely for the first month. You will be given instructions on how to tape your nose after rhinoplasty.

Monitoring & results

Medical check-up and final assessment

After 7–10 days, you will return to the nurse for a follow-up appointment. We will then monitor the healing process following your nose surgery through a series of scheduled follow-up appointments during the first year.

Results after nose surgery

The results of a nose job are not fully visible immediately. During the initial period, the nose is markedly swollen, and nose surgery bruising around the eyes is very common. Although the plaster cast is often removed after a week (rhinoplasty after a week), the swelling remains for a long time, especially over the tip of the nose. The skin and tissue contract over the new cartilage structure very slowly. The final anatomical result is only medically assessed after 12 to 18 months.

Our specialists in facial surgery

At The Faculty, we have assembled a hand-picked team of facial surgeons where each aesthetic procedure is performed by a specialist surgeon with solid expertise, which is the basis for your medical safety.

Who can have a rhinoplasty?

To undergo surgery, you must be over 18 years old and in good general health. Some patients ask about the possibility of a free nose operation. The public sector (County Council) only pays for operations in cases of severe trauma or extreme respiratory problems, never aesthetic corrections. With us, a strict medical assessment is made. It is also an absolute requirement that you are a non-smoker to minimise the risk of necrosis (tissue death).

Complications and risks

There are risks associated with all surgery. General complications include haemorrhage, infection or asymmetric healing. In the case of nose surgery specifically, there is a risk of residual swelling, a temporarily affected respiratory function, or small irregularities in the bone/cartilage which in some cases may require a minor adjustment later. Your surgeon will inform you very carefully about the risks and how we work medically to prevent them.

Other facial surgery treatments

It is common for facial proportions to appear unbalanced due to a number of factors. Sometimes our plastic surgeons recommend that a rhinoplasty be complemented with a chin implant to create an optimal profile and balance in the face. We assess your entire facial anatomy during the consultation to provide the most objective recommendation.

Why consider a rhinoplasty?

Choosing to have a nose job is a personal decision based on different motivations. Some seek surgery for functional reasons, where a deviated septum creates breathing difficulties (nose surgery to breathe better). Others consider aesthetic nose surgery because they perceive an imbalance in the proportions of their face, often due to an uneven nasal bridge, a wide nose or a shape they perceive as a "potato nose". The driving force is your own, and we design an objective treatment plan fully rooted in what is anatomically and surgically possible, without promising specific emotional results.

Frequently asked questions about rhinoplasty

Here are some frequently asked questions and answers about rhinoplasty

How much does a nose job cost in the UK?

An exact price is always given after a clinical assessment. At The Faculty, a standard rhinoplasty costs 70,000 SEK (nose surgery price sweden). If the procedure is combined with a functional adjustment of the nasal septum, the price is SEK 77,000. A more complex secondary rhinoplasty costs from 89 000 SEK. These prices include anaesthesia and all follow-up care.

How long should you tape your nose after a nose job?

Taping is an extremely important part of post-operative care, helping to control swelling and ensuring the skin heals evenly over the newly formed cartilage and bone. Once the plaster cast has been removed, the plastic surgeon usually recommends continuing to tape the nose after rhinoplasty around the clock for a further week, and thereafter at night for up to four to six weeks, depending on the thickness of your skin.

What is a secondary rhinoplasty (failed rhinoplasty)?

A secondary rhinoplasty involves operating on a nose that has already undergone surgery (sometimes referred to by patients as a 'failed rhinoplasty'). It is a considerably more complicated procedure as there is often scar tissue in the nose, and sometimes a lack of cartilage. Our surgeons have the specialised expertise to build and reconstruct the nose with autologous cartilage (e.g. from the ear or rib).

Can I use nasal spray after nose surgery?

Immediately after the operation (after nose surgery), your mucous membranes will be swollen. Often, gentle rinsing with normal saline is recommended. Regular nasal decongestants after nasal surgery may only be used for a very limited period if explicitly authorised by your surgeon, in order not to interfere with the delicate healing process of the mucous membranes.

Why are there such big price differences (nose surgery price turkey vs sweden)?

Many people compare what does a nose job cost in Turkey with how much does a nose job cost in Sweden. The differences in nose surgery Turkey price depend on national salary levels and clinic liability insurance. We always recommend considering medical safety, who is legally responsible in case of complications, and the possibility of safe, physical return visits during the year-long healing process.

How long does it take for bruising and swelling to go away?

Most patients experience bruising around the eyes that is most intense in the first three to four days. These usually fade completely within 14 days. The swelling on the nose itself stays for much longer. Around 70-80 % of the swelling disappears in the first three months, while the remaining swelling, especially over the tip, can take over a year to settle.

Which clinic offers the best nose surgery Sweden?

It is natural for patients to search for "best rhinoplasty Sweden" or "best rhinoplasty Gothenburg". The "best" surgery is always performed by a surgeon with specific training and high volume of nasal procedures, in hospital standard premises. We always recommend that you go for a consultation, ask your questions and choose the plastic surgeon where your medical security and confidence feel the strongest.
