Rhinoplasty without tampons: the post-surgery period
For the post-op period, the surgeon will give the patients detailed instructions on the precautions to be taken.

The swelling that may form around the eyes and cheeks during the first two or three days subsequent to rhinoplasty, starts to subside on the fourth and fifth day, to disappear entirely after a week, when the plate and adhesives are removed. After this last operation, you will be able to wash your skin gently using a sponge with deterging lotion or mild soap, and you may also immediately use makeup or cosmetic products.

The discharge form will specify all the instructions and suggestions for a good postoperative recovery, and give the phone numbers of the Surgical Polyambulatory of Modena, including those of the surgeon and anesthetist. The relationship with Prof. Rubens Mattioli will not end in the operating room with the rhinoplasty treatment. The patients will be able to keep in direct contact with the facility and the doctor himself, who can be addressed in case of need or to clarify any doubt, and will be accompanied step by step during the postoperative healing.
