Is Rhinoplasty Safe with Mild Health Conditions?
2 months ago
I have mild health conditions, including seasonal allergies and mild hypertension. Is it safe for me to undergo rhinoplasty under anesthesia, and what pre-surgery tests or precautions do doctors usually recommend to ensure the procedure is safe?

Yes, rhinoplasty can generally be performed safely in patients with mild health conditions like seasonal allergies or controlled hypertension, but careful pre-operative evaluation is essential.
Doctors usually recommend a detailed medical history, blood tests, and cardiac evaluation to ensure your heart and blood pressure are stable. Seasonal allergies are typically managed beforehand to reduce nasal congestion during surgery.
Your surgeon and anesthesiologist will review medications, adjust them if necessary, and monitor you closely during the procedure. Following all pre- and post-operative instructions helps minimize risks and ensures a safe, smooth recovery.
