WE OFTEN COME ACROSS THE QUESTION, “IS RHINOPLASTY ENT OR PLASTIC?” RHINOPLASTY SURGERY IS PERFORMED BY BOTH ENT SPECIALISTS AND PLASTIC SURGEONS.
ENT specialists are doctors who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the ear, nose and throat. Since rhinoplasty surgery can also be used to improve the breathing functions of the nose, ENT specialists have the knowledge and skills necessary to perform this surgery.
Plastic surgeons are doctors who treat aesthetic and functional problems of the skin, face, neck, chest, abdomen and extremities. Since rhinoplasty surgery can be used to change the shape and size of the nose, plastic surgeons have the knowledge and skills necessary to perform this surgery.
The specialist to be preferred for the surgery may vary according to the individual needs and preferences of the patient. As a surgeon who provides services as Ear Nose Throat Head and Neck Surgery, I would like to say that you can choose my colleagues from every branch that you feel good about and trust in nose surgeries.
There are experienced and successful surgeons in both specialties. When choosing a specialist for your surgery, it is important to research the specialist’s training and experience. It is also important to talk openly with your doctor before and after surgery and state what kind of results you are expecting.
