 | Nose Surgery (Rhinoplasty) Patient Information - STARTING NOW Please read and familiarize yourself with these instructions. By following them carefully you will assist in obtaining the best possible result from your rhinoplasty surgery. If questions arise, do not hesitate to communicate with Dr. Zevon and discuss your questions at any time. Re-read the General Instructions for Cosmetic Surgery Dr. Zevon gave you. Locate your Personal Information Sheet and complete it so that Dr. Zevon's office will know who will escort you home after your rhinoplasty surgery and where you plan to spend the night of your surgery. Bring it to your pre-operative appointment, or telephone, e-mail or fax the information to us. If you cannot locate it, let us know so that we can provide you with another. If you wear glasses, ask us to show you how to tape glasses to your forehead so that you will be able to wear them after your rhinoplasty surgery when your splint is removed. To avoid pressure on the bridge of your nose, you will have to wear your glasses taped to your forehead. Make sure you have plenty of ice on hand to use for cold compresses after your rhinoplasty surgery. You may apply an ice bag or use a washcloth or hand towel dipped in ice water to control post-surgical bruising and swelling around your eyes. Cold compresses will reduce swelling and make your head feel better. Continue reading nose surgery patient information
