What kind of complications could arise from the plastic nose surgery?
• Bleeding or inflammation: can occur in 1-2%, can be overcomed by tighter tampons or the use of antibiotics. • Serum mucus through nostrils lasting for weeks, is very rare • Nose back or nose peak sensibility decreases by touching is seldom, recovers itself in a few months. • The narrowing of one or both nostrils (only frequent in per thousand) • Necroses of cartilage are regular in per thousand, could deform the nose and newer operations might be needed. • Following the operation of one or two months, disadvantageous alterations are seldom on the nose (e.g. small shaft obliqueness or beneath the skin touchable little bump, perhaps change of the nose peak position). This is the own reaction of the organism not a complication. Later a small correction operation might be needed.
