Turbinoplasty Surgery: Pre-Op & Post-Op Care

Preparation for turbinoplasty

Certain tests, including imaging studies such as nasal endoscopy and physical examinations, are conducted prior to the procedure to view the turbinates. In addition, the patient is asked to discontinue taking certain medications, like blood thinners, and to provide a history of allergies and medical conditions, such as any bleeding disorders.

During the procedure

Once in the procedure room, you will be administered general anesthesia to reduce the likelihood of experiencing pain during the procedure. Tiny structures called turbinates are accessed by making small incisions inside the nostrils to shrink or remove the mass of soft tissues that have grown too much while the mucosal lining is still present to preserve its function.

Turbinoplasty Recovery

The patient may require a minimum of two days of hospital stay. The recovery period may vary from individual to individual; however, the ideal healing period ranges from 2 to 4 weeks.
