Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty

What is Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty?

Ultrasonic rhinoplasty is a surgical technique utilizing a Piezoelectrical device that generates ultrasonic waves to aid in reshaping nasal bones during rhinoplasty surgery. Dr. Enis uses the device to send high-frequency ultrasonic waves directly to the nasal bone, allowing him to precisely remove specific bone fragments and dense cartilage without employing traditional nose surgery instruments like hammer and chisel. 

While traditional instruments such as hammer and chisels are effective in reshaping the nasal anatomy, they can also create additional trauma to surrounding soft tissue and can contribute to swelling, bleeding, and even additional scarring in some cases. The Piezoelectrical technology can be used in both open and closed rhinoplasty and provides advantages because it allows for less adjacent injury to deep soft tissues and translates to less bleeding, minimal bruising, and reduced swelling.

What are the benefits of Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty?

Ultrasonic Rhinoplasty has some significant advantages as it allows nasal surgeons to cut or remove nasal bone with a heightened precision without the use of a chisel or rasps. Overall, it is a more gentle technique ad there is less swelling and bruising after surgery. Traditional techniques which use a hammer and chisel during surgery, may result in some splintering of the bone and inadvertent fractures. This is avoided when using ultrasonic rhinoplasty. In addition, patients experience reduced post-operative pain after ultrasonic rhinoplasty. As a result, ultrasonic rhinoplasty provides better result and faster recovery.
