About the procedure
Piezo technology uses ultrasonic vibrations to work on nasal bone. It is one component of the surgical technique: the tip, cartilage and breathing still require their own assessment.
Your consultation
The surgeon considers bone structure, facial proportions, skin and nasal function. The consultation clarifies whether bone reshaping is needed and what role a piezo instrument could have in your case.
What to expect
- Medical assessment, discussion of options and agreement on a plan.
- Bone reshaping with the piezo instrument alongside the other stages of the surgical plan.
- Aftercare and follow-up adapted to the healing process.
Recovery and follow-up
Swelling and bruising remain possible with this technique. Aftercare, protection of the nose and follow-up depend on the complete operation.
What to consider
Using piezo does not remove surgical risks. Asymmetry, breathing changes and the possibility of further correction need discussion.
Common questions
Is piezo suitable for every rhinoplasty?
Not automatically. Its usefulness depends on the bone changes needed and the plan selected after examination.
Does it correct the nasal tip?
Piezo is used on bone. Tip changes involve other structures and techniques, which may form part of the same operation.
Discuss the cost before treatment.
Ask for an estimate for your case and clarify what is included: consultations, the procedure, investigations and follow-up visits. The plan and final cost are agreed after assessment.
