Pre Operative Question Answer

Can I still wear sunglasses after rhinoplasty?

Absolutely! It’s natural to have questions about post-operative care following rhinoplasty. While it’s important to protect your eyes from the sun, it’s recommended to avoid wearing sunglasses directly on your nose immediately after the procedure to allow for proper healing. Instead, consider wearing sunglasses with a wide frame that rests on your temples, ensuring they don’t put pressure on the surgical site. It’s vital to discuss your specific needs and concerns with your surgeon, who can provide personalized guidance for a safe and successful recovery. They will guide you on when it’s appropriate to resume wearing sunglasses normally based on your healing progress. Remember, open communication and following your surgeon’s instructions are key to achieving the best possible outcomes.
