Hi I'm Dr Michael Sullivan, facial plastic surgeon at the Sullivan Centre in Columbus
Ohio.
One of the common questions I receive from my patients is what is the best time of the
year to have a rhinoplasty. And that's an interesting question and really the answer
to that question is similar for most cosmetic procedures and that is when does that procedure
work best into your schedule because you'll need about a week of downtime and so often
times depending on work, school.
You'll need to factor that to the equation. Often times younger people will have rhinoplasty
in the summer time because they have the summer off. Sometimes the concern is about having
your rhinoplasty in the winter time and colds, however, it's very unusual for patients to
have a cold after rhinoplasty, although in the winter time sometimes we are stuck indoors
and more inclined to have cold. But bottomline is the best time to have a rhinoplasty is
the best time it fits into your life schedule.
