Robert Pattinson and Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears, Ksenia Sobchak and Masha Malinovskaya - all these stars had plastic surgery, had their noses fixed and are living happily. Why are we any worse? Let's talk about rhinoplasty today.
Plastic surgery in Tomsk is not extremely developed (we have only a million people in the entire region), but it has status and a positive image. Future patients come to us from Novosibirsk and Kemerovo, from Moscow and from abroad. Including in order to “make a nose”.
According to Tomsk plastic surgeons, rhinoplasty is one of the most popular plastic surgeries among Tomsk residents, both female and male. Yes, yes, men are also not averse to making themselves a perfect nose. Women want to correct congenital defects or simply improve their appearance, while men turn to plastic surgeons, most often because they got hit on the very nose - in a boxing match or after a “male showdown.” Local plastic surgeons put rhinoplasty on a par with the most popular plastic surgeries in Tomsk - mammoplasty, facelift and liposuction.
And this is quite understandable. Beautiful, lush breasts are wonderful, but you won’t show them off to everyone you come across. But the nose... It’s immediately visible. It’s too big, too big, hooked, crooked, with a hump or a wide tip - how much it spoils the impression! In reality, of course, it doesn’t spoil it that much, but the girls are sure of the opposite. Now, if I had undergone surgery and received a cute, small, neat and sexy nose as a reward for my torment, then life would have turned out differently!
And they are right in many ways. It is customary for us to sing praises to huge and beautiful eyes, long and fluffy eyelashes, sable eyebrows and scarlet lips. It's not fair. Where is the nose?! There are many beautiful eyes, but you won’t find beautiful, perfectly straight noses during the day with fire. The nose is the optical center of the face. You just have to change its shape a little, and your face becomes completely different. Surgeons believe that no plastic surgery changes a person’s appearance as noticeably as rhinoplasty.
Types of rhinoplasty
There are two main types of rhinoplasty – external (open) and internal (closed). In both cases, the surgeon shapes the structure of the nose by changing the cartilage tissue, only with open rhinoplasty an external incision is made, and with internal rhinoplasty all the work is done through the nostrils.
In the first case, general anesthesia is indicated, in the second - local anesthesia. Note that the second option is not for the impressionable. Under general anesthesia, you fell asleep, woke up, and here you have a new nose. At the local level... it would be better not to know, not to hear what they are doing to you there now. But general anesthesia is extremely harmful! Your memory weakens, you become like a rag, your hair comes out in clumps... The body experiences the effects of general anesthesia for a long time, and it may take several months for its final recovery.
Sometimes revision rhinoplasty is required. It is performed, most often, after 5-6 months, when any deficiencies clearly appear. Repeat surgery is required in approximately 10% of cases.
What and where do they do it?
The most common types of plastic surgery in Tomsk:

Rhinoplasty should not be done for nursing mothers - the baby will receive a dose of drugs that are harmful to him along with the milk. In general, it is advisable to wait 4-6 months after finishing feeding - so that the slightly weakened mother’s body will finally recover.
For the operation, it is necessary to select a suitable day of the monthly cycle - critical days are excluded, as well as a couple of days before and after them.
Rhinoplasty is also completely contraindicated for those who have an inferiority complex: in fact, they look very good, they have a neat nose, they just don’t like something about themselves all the time... This is not about you, is it definitely not about you? Maybe you should play it safe and first go to a good psychologist?
At what age is it better to have rhinoplasty?
It is clear that it is teenagers who experience the greatest torment because of an ugly nose - here you have adolescence, and the ridicule of classmates... When a person grows up, he looks at the world and at his own appearance somewhat differently. However, for children and adolescents, surgery can only be performed for indications - for example, breathing problems or due to congenital deformities.
Minor but already grown children can become patients with parental permission. Many people think about surgery at the age of 15-16. But ideally, it is better to wait until the age of 17-18, when the face is already formed and is not subject to changes due to growth.
The best age for rhinoplasty is 18-40 years old. After 40 years, surgery is no longer recommended, since at this age metabolic processes are already disrupted and the skin fades. That is, the face is again in a state of change, only now in the opposite direction - the body does not grow, but ages. Surgeons believe that after 40 years of age, surgery is much more difficult to endure, scars heal worse, and swelling lasts a long time.
And this situation is very frustrating for many women, because it is after they reach their fourth decade that they begin to make active attempts to regain youth and already slightly fading beauty. And by that time, many had already earned money - they could afford plastic surgery. However, age is not the main thing. At forty years old, you can be both half-grandmother and half-girl - depending on what kind of life the woman led and how she looked after herself. Again, the individual characteristics of the organism come to the fore. So, if you are thinking about rhinoplasty, do it while you are young and full of strength. Then the operation will be easier to bear, and the period of complete recovery will pass not in a year, but in six months.
Laser removal of blood vessels is carried out to eliminate the following pathologies:
- Spider veins. This persistent dilatation of superficial vessels appears as bluish-red spots. Laser removal of rosacea on the face is an effective method of getting rid of this pathology. Proper treatment of rosacea can quickly relieve the patient of this unpleasant defect.
- Angiomas (vascular moles). This defect is of cosmetic origin. Angiomas look like red, round formations that are located at the level of the skin or slightly rise above it.
- Rosacea (rosacea). The cause of this pathology is usually inflammation inside the sebaceous glands.
- Hemangiomas. This vascular pathology of the skin is congenital and has the appearance of red spots. In this case, laser removal of blood vessels is best performed in early childhood.
- Birthmarks are red. These malformations of lymphatic or blood vessels are also congenital.
- Varicose veins. This pathological condition of the veins is accompanied by disruption of the functioning of the valve mechanism.
Which nose shape should you choose?
Well, this is where my eyes just run wild. Which celebrity has the most beautiful nose? Salma Hayek, for example, has a neat nose, while Michelle Pfeiffer has the ideal – classic, straight. By the way, both had rhinoplasty. Or maybe make a nose like Marilyn Monroe’s, because it’s not for nothing that she is a symbol of beauty and femininity...
“This is a completely unjustified practice - trying to make your nose like that of some star,” says plastic surgeon Mikhail Afanasyev. – The nose is a part of the face, not a separate object. Do you know what these attempts to copy someone remind me of? It’s like Gogol: “If only Nikanor Ivanovich’s lips could be placed on Ivan Kuzmich’s nose...”. In the end there will be no beauty. Marilyn Monroe's nose is only good on her own face. On your face, only your own nose, only slightly adjusted, is good and appropriate. After all, if, for example, you remove a hump or raise the tip of your nose, your face will amazingly transform. We change details, and everything changes. Again, think about whether it is possible to make a small snub nose out of a rather impressive Caucasian-type nose? This is technically impossible. However, patients have nothing to worry about - during the consultation we will discuss everything and, of course, we will be able to choose the best nose option that will look harmonious on your face.
Who did it?
As in the cities of the European part of Russia, in Tomsk, well-to-do people are transformed using scalpels and silicone. The local bohemia of the older generation completely “keeps face”, not without the help of effective means of rejuvenation under anesthesia or anesthesia. Naturally, few people admit this, much less openly discuss it.
The author conducted a short survey on the topic “ Do you know anyone who has had plastic surgery? »
Yulia, salesperson My boss had a breast augmentation in Moscow about twelve years ago. Here in Tomsk this matter was not raised. Then everything was just beginning in Russia, gaining momentum. So they made it so that her right breast periodically moved under her armpit! She had to regularly adjust the implant discreetly. Nowadays, surgeons have already become skilled at making decent breast samples, sometimes you can’t tell them apart from the real ones. I think that after the second birth I will also insert silicone.
Marina, housewife I haven’t had to change anything about myself, although as I get older I probably will. During my student years, I had a friend with the same problem - the complete absence of protruding mammary glands. Imagine? Like a boy! Her parents gave her money and at the age of 19 they allowed her to get implants. She did this here in Tomsk, and gave about two hundred thousand rubles.
Alexey, builder My friend works in Tomsk in the field of plastic surgery. She told me that in our city, strippers and elite prostitutes from Moscow and St. Petersburg do breast and lip lifts. Because here plastic surgery services are several times cheaper than in the capitals. So draw your conclusions, whose prerogative is to walk around with unnatural charms! Local patients improve more what they have: their face is lifted, their breasts are lifted as they are. And then - in great secrecy, without disclosing. In our outback people are still shy about this. In America and Moscow, spending two or three months in a clinic, patching up your face, removing fat is a common thing!
Olga, head of the HR department If earlier everything good could be done for money, now - for money and through acquaintances. There are many charlatans. They'll do anything to you, and then you'll only look worse than you did before. More money will be spent on restoration! And there are so many scary stories about patients in a coma, faces disfigured for life, deaths during surgery. I have been planning to have blepharoplasty for many years, but I still can’t make up my mind. Scary!
Of course, women do plastic surgery first of all, but what do men think about this ?
Nikita, programmer When they make candy out of a monkey, it’s great. Some people really need plastic surgery on their face. If a nightmare is molded from a satisfactory appearance, which then falls apart in parts, that’s bad. I don't like silicone breasts. I don’t even want to look at her, let alone more...
Evgeniy, engineer About ten years ago, my friend’s wife wanted to enlarge her breasts, mostly under his, her husband’s, pressure. During the operation... she died. Naturally, we were all in deep shock. A wonderful girl has passed away. And so stupid! I don’t know how one can have a positive attitude towards the phenomenon of plastic surgery if there is always the possibility of a person’s death during any operation.
Roman, system administrator There are different situations. Sometimes it is better for a woman to get silicone. If you have at least something of your own, then you don’t have to go out of your way, or rather, get under your skin with silicone! I also don’t understand when men remove wrinkles. Wrinkles are natural. If, for example, the nose is corrected after a serious injury so as not to walk like a freak, then this is normal.
Sergey, student at ELTI (TPU) If plastic surgery does not have a detrimental effect on a woman’s health, I don’t see anything wrong. Why not improve? As for the silicone in the breasts... I personally don’t really like it! Because a woman will not be able to breastfeed her child. I think this process is important.
Vladimir, entrepreneur I have a very positive attitude towards plastic surgery and silicone breasts. I myself am going to use normal profits to correct my chin, nose and fight wrinkles. I need to consult with my daughter.
Anatoly, Doctor of Physics and Mathematics, Professor of the Department of RHI, TUSUR Correction of the figure and face is normal. Girls have always wanted to be more beautiful. However, the operations do not affect the hereditary appearance of the descendants in any way. To put it bluntly, they made an ugly girl beautiful. She gets married and does not tell her husband about her true physiological appearance. After a while, they give birth to an ugly child based on the mother’s genes. When getting married, you need to be honest with your future spouse, inform them about your external modeling - in order to avoid further incidents.
What happens after surgery?
The operation itself does not last long, the preparatory period is the most common - do not eat for 8 hours, do not drink water before the operation itself, and prepare yourself for an excellent outcome.
In the hospital after surgery, Tomsk residents are treated differently; each clinic has its own rules. But usually no more than 2-3 days. And often less. Basically, patients spend these two postoperative weeks at home, following all the surgeon's instructions.
It must be said that the recovery period can unsettle even the most courageous. On the first day after surgery, many people still have trouble thinking clearly. And those who are in full health experience an emotional upsurge - from their own heroism and from the fact that everything is already behind them. But then the euphoria wears off, and God hasn’t given many people patience.
“After the operation, the most difficult thing for me was to adapt to breathing through the mouth,” says Tomsk resident Yulia Ivanova (surname changed), “my lips are dry, there are tampons in my nose, you want to sleep, but you wake up all the time, you can’t turn on your side... But it’s okay, I somehow adapted , on the second day I was already more cheerful. I haven't picked up the mirror yet. I saw that terrible bruises were beginning to spread on my face. I had never had them in my life, so it was scary and unusual for me to look at myself. These bruises made me feel quietly hysterical, and then my face was all swollen and puffy... And I couldn’t sneeze, cough too much, blow my nose, or touch my nose. And then ten days later the fixing bandage was removed. By that time, the bruises had turned yellow and could have been covered up, but the swelling did not seem to go away, on the contrary, it turned out that they were partially held back by the bandage. And the nose is so thick and terrible - not at all what I expected. The tip remained somewhat drooping for a long time - as it turned out, this is where the swelling goes. And I walked like this “unfinished” for another 2 months. Of course, it gets better every day, but still the face seemed unfinished. Although, I note that as soon as I started leaving the house, my mood was always upbeat, the depression passed, and in the second month I already noticed only good changes in my face. Whatever, you can wait a month or two. But from now on and for the rest of my life I have a stunningly beautiful nose!
How does the procedure work?
The actual contouring of the nose is preceded by a consultation with a specialist. During the consultation, contraindications are established, and the patient’s wishes for correction are clarified.
In individual cases, some tests or examination by a therapist may be prescribed, but, as a rule, a visual examination is sufficient.
At the beginning of the procedure, first of all, the skin is cleansed and a special anesthetic gel is applied. It allows correction with fillers to be carried out comfortably and painlessly.
After the anesthetic has taken effect, the drug is administered with a special thin needle.
The whole process takes about 45 minutes and immediately upon completion you will be able to see a noticeable result that will delight you for 9-12 months, in some cases the effect lasts up to 2 years!
