Hello! This is Vibe Plastic Surgery :)

After getting rhinoplasty at our clinic,

🏥 many people ask about

post-operative care.

Since it is right after surgery,

there are many concerns,

and if care is neglected,

it can lead to infection,

so we understand you might be extra cautious 🥲

So today, we will talk about

acne-like breakouts around the nose

after rhinoplasty and how to manage them :)

Can I use nose packs or patches after rhinoplasty?

Yes, you can use them all 🙆🏻‍♀️

However, please avoid squeezing

nose sebum with strong pressure using your hands 🙅🏻‍♀️❌

If excessive irritation is applied to the surgical site,

it can lead to infection or delayed recovery.

At rhinoplasty clinic Vibe Plastic Surgery,

after removing the splint at the 1-week mark post-surgery,

we provide basic nose sebum care together.

At this time, rather than manual extraction by hand,

we use a machine to proceed more safely and hygienically,

so we recommend visiting the clinic

to receive care!

Please avoid excessive self-care,

😇 and minimizing irritation during the recovery period

helps with a faster and more stable recovery.

Can I pop a pimple if I get one after rhinoplasty?

To give you the conclusion first,

squeezing it directly with your hands is not good 🙅🏻‍♀️❌

🦠 There are many invisible bacteria on your fingertips,

and it can cause wounds on the skin.

Also, applying excessive pressure

can press or irritate the surgical site,

risking interference with recovery.

At rhinoplasty clinic Vibe, we recommend

the following methods.

We advise visiting the clinic where you had surgery,

a nearby dermatology clinic, or a skincare shop

to receive safe care using

sterilized instruments.

Rather than forceful self-extraction,

professional care helps prevent infection and

🌿 aids in stable recovery.

Do I have to go to the clinic if I get a pimple after rhinoplasty?

You don't need to worry too much

in every case just because a pimple appears.

However, if it is large or does not subside

even after time passes, you must

visit a rhinoplasty clinic

to get it checked.

Although it is rare,

if a pimple that occurs after rhinoplasty becomes deep,

there is a possibility it could lead to an infection.

Depending on the condition, receiving appropriate treatment

such as injection therapy helps

with a safer recovery :)

Are breakouts common after rhinoplasty?

If you originally had an oily skin type with a lot of sebum,

acne or breakouts may temporarily appear

even after surgery,

which might look somewhat messy.

However, these skin troubles

do not affect the rhinoplasty result itself,

so you don't need to worry too much :)

Since it is a natural change that can occur during the recovery process,

it is best to manage it while minimizing irritation.


Q. How do I distinguish between an infection and a pimple?


You only need to remember four symptoms of infection.

If three or more of the symptoms below appear together,

it is highly likely to be an infection.

⚠️ If an infection is suspected,

please do not delay and visit

rhinoplasty clinic Vibe Plastic Surgery!

1. Redness

2. Swelling

3. Heat sensation

4. Pain

Acne after rhinoplasty, proper response is important

If you get acne or breakouts

after getting rhinoplasty at a clinic,

you might worry first,

but in most cases, it is a temporary skin reaction

that can appear during the recovery process.

However, if the symptoms worsen or

if multiple symptoms such as redness, swelling, heat, and pain

appear together,

please do not judge on your own

and visit a rhinoplasty clinic to get

an accurate check-up.

Rhinoplasty clinic Vibe Plastic Surgery

checks the recovery process together after surgery

and helps with safe care and treatment.
