Are there any dietary restrictions following rhinoplasty surgery?
No. Patients can eat whatever they want. Advance your diet from liquids to soft food to solids as tolerated. Please drink as much fluid as you can which will help you from becoming dehydrated. Also, it’s not uncommon to have temporary numbness on the roof of the mouth (palate) behind the front teeth following nasal surgery so you may want to avoid extremely hot beverages immediately following rhinoplasty surgery.
