Introduction

In general, it is acceptable to soak your feet after rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty involves implanting prosthetics, autologous cartilage, or injecting fillers into the nose to alter the nasal bone and soft tissue framework, thereby increasing nasal height and improving the nasal contour. Postoperative care should focus on protecting the nose, avoiding external impacts or pressure to prevent displacement of the implant.

Generally speaking, it is possible to soak feet after rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty involves implanting prosthetics, autologous cartilage, or injecting fillers into the nose to change the nasal bone and soft tissue framework, thereby increasing the height of the nose and improving its contour. The usual reference price for rhinoplasty is 2000-10000 yuan per session, and improvement is typically noticeable 1-3 months after surgery, although symptoms such as redness, swelling, and infection may occur. A detailed analysis is as follows:

Foot soaking is a health practice that promotes blood circulation in the feet through hot water and generally does not directly adversely affect the surgical wound or recovery of the nose. However, during the early stages after rhinoplasty, such as within the first week post-operation, attention should be paid to using water that is not too hot while soaking feet, to avoid accelerated overall blood circulation causing increased local congestion at the nasal wound site, which may affect wound healing. Additionally, care should be taken to prevent the foot soaking water from splashing onto the nasal wound to avoid infection.

It is recommended to visit a regular hospital and perform the above procedures under the guidance of a qualified physician to ensure the safety and stability of the surgery. Post-operative care should include protecting the nose from external impacts or pressure to prevent displacement of the implant. Elevating the head slightly during sleep can help reduce nasal swelling.

Can I still receive hyaluronic acid injections after rhinoplasty?

Whether hyaluronic acid injections are needed after rhinoplasty depends on the recovery status and the surgical outcome. If the recovery is satisfactory and the nose has a well-defined shape, hyaluronic acid injections are generally unnecessary to avoid overfilling, which may affect the nasal contour. However, if the recovery is unsatisfactory or complications such as implant displacement occur, hyaluronic acid injections may be administered under a physician's guidance for minor adjustments, helping the nose regain its normal appearance.
