What is the QuickComfort Rhinoplasty?
The QuickComfort Rhinoplasty involves a technique that is designed specificially to avoid trauma to the delicate and sensitive nerves of the nose and nasal septum Traditional rhinoplasty techniques create a great deal of inflammation around these nerves, which can lead to pain, soreness, and a longer recovery period. In the same manner that you avoid a sensitive area of your body that might be injured, a QuickComfort surgeon avoids the sensitive nerves that cause pain, which makes your recovery speedier and much more comfortable.
How is the QuickComfort Rhinoplasty different from a traditional rhinoplasty?
- Less Painful. It is very common for patients who have a traditional rhinoplasty to need prescription pain pills for about a week, and sometimes even longer. Most QuickComfort patients use less than 3 or 4 pain pills throughout their entire recovery period! By Day 2 or 3 after surgery, most patients will only need a few extra-strength Tylenol to feel perfectly comfortable. In addition, there is no packing inside the nose, which makes breathing and sleeping much easier after surgery.
- Less Downtime. If it’s less painful, it’s obvious that there is less downtime as well. Most QuickComfort patients are back to normal activities, with the exceptions of heavy lifting and strenuous exercise, after 3-4 days, and back to work in about a week.
- Less Risky. Because the QuickComfort technique leads to far less inflammation, the amount of swelling and bruising is also reduced compared to a traditional rhinoplasty. Most of the bruising will be gone after a 3-4 days, and most of the swelling will be gone in a week. The risk of serious problems like bleeding is also reduced with the QuickComfort technique, as is the risk of minor problems that can occur after using prescription pain pills for extended period of time.
Am I a candidate for the QuickComfort Rhinoplasty?
Most women who are having rhinoplasty surgery for the first time are candidates, but there are a few exceptions. The only way to know for sure whether or not you are a candidate for the procedure is to be evaluated by a QuickComfort surgeon.
How much does the QuickComfort Rhinoplasty cost?
The price range for a QuickComfort Rhinoplasty is anywhere from $6000-$12,000 depending on the complexity of your particular procedure, and a few other variables that you’ll discuss with your surgeon during a consultation.
Are there financing options available for the QuickComfort Rhinoplasty?
Absolutely! There are fantastic financing options available. Many of them will offer a period of 0% interest for qualified applicants, and for many patients, the monthly payments can be as low as $200.
