What to Expect?

The first step in planning your nose surgery in Chicago is a conversation with Dr. Sulyman-Scott. While her clinic is elegant, sophisticated, and private, as a person she has a rare quality – the ability to listen and understand. Feel free to bring pictures of noses you like, and to speak freely about why you want to change your nose, and what aspect of it bothers you. You have a voice when you work with her – nothing is more important than your personal vision of beauty. Your consultation is the starting point for a future in which you glow with confidence, knowing you look your best.

Your Journey to a More Attractive Nose, Step by Step

Once it is established that you are healthy and safe to undergo surgery, your date for the procedure will be set. On the actual day of your surgery, you will arrive at the surgery center where you will be prepped for surgery. Once you are in the operating room, general anesthesia will be administered by a certified anesthesiologist, who will be monitoring you throughout the procedure. Every nose reshaping surgery is different, and there is no “cookie-cutter” approach to this procedure. Dr. Sulyman-Scott is one of the very few plastic surgeons in the country that is trained in both closed and open rhinoplasty techniques.

Closed Rhinoplasty: This approach is feasible for a large number of rhinoplasty patients. The incisions are placed within the nostrils with no external scars.
Open Rhinoplasty: This approach involves placing an incision at the base of the columella – the strip of tissue between your nostrils. This allows for total access to the nose structure, which is necessary for most complex nose reshaping surgeries.

Based on the changes you need, tissue, cartilage, or bone will be altered to bring your nose into balance with your other features. When performed by Dr. Sulyman-Scott, this procedure is executed with meticulous attention to detail, employing the latest surgical techniques to bring about a beautiful, natural-looking result.

Rhinoplasty Recovery Tips

To make your recovery as smooth as possible, we will provide detailed aftercare instructions. Some tips to improve recovery are as follows:

For the first 8-12 hours after your surgery, use an ice pack wrapped in a cloth over your eyes to help reduce bruising and swelling. Apply it on the eyes for 15 minutes, then off for 15 minutes.
Sleep with your head elevated using pillows or a recliner for the first three days.
Keep your nose protected while it heals by avoiding any activity that could possibly expose it to harm.
For at least two weeks, do not wear glasses with heavy frames.
Do not exercise for at least a week while you are still in the initial healing process.
Drink plenty of water and get plenty of rest as you heal. Take care of yourself and give yourself the time you need to rest and recuperate.

Cost of Rhinoplasty in Chicago

The cost of rhinoplasty varies based on a number of factors. Rhinoplasty is individually tailored to suit your unique needs and goals. Some of the factors that determine the price include which rhinoplasty technique is required and how complex the procedure is, how many parts of the nose are being addressed, and whether or not your rhinoplasty is combined with another procedure. Once your personalized treatment plan is determined, Dr. Sulyman-Scott will be able to give you an exact price. Generally, the cost of rhinoplasty in Chicago ranges between $2,000 to $15,000.
