Dr Frati will provide each patient with a set of personalised pre-operative instructions to help them prepare for their procedure. Instructions may vary between patients, but each instruction should be followed to ensure a smooth recovery and an ideal outcome.


Patients will need to discontinue using medications and herbal supplements that contain blood-thinning properties. Patients should also avoid consuming alcohol several days before and after the procedure. They will also stop smoking temporarily for optimal results.


Patients will need to arrange for transportation to and from their procedure and arrange for time off work. We also recommend that you arrange for a trusted friend or family member to care for you for the first hours of recovery.

An open rhinoplasty requires an incision across the columella. When performing an open rhinoplasty, Dr Frati has full visibility of the nasal cartilage and bone, allowing him to restructure or reshape the nose more accurately and precisely. This makes the open technique more suitable for patients with more complex corrections or those receiving revision rhinoplasties.


A closed rhinoplasty places inside the nostrils, eliminating any external scarring after healing. A closed rhinoplasty technique is more difficult to perform when more detailed reshaping is needed, as visibility is limited. Dr Frati often performs this for more subtle enhancements or when only the dorsal hump is being addressed.


After Dr Frati makes an incision, he will reshape the nasal cartilage and bone using various techniques. He may remove excess tissue, place cartilage grafts, or the underlying bones. Cartilage is used to help reinforce and reshape the structure of the nose, with grafts often being taken from the ribs or the outer ear.


Dr Frati can also address functional issues while performing a rhinoplasty, with many patients often choosing to fix issues such as septums or other congenital anomalies. Dr Frati can make the appropriate adjustments before redraping the skin and closing the incisions. The duration of each rhinoplasty can vary, but patients can expect their to last between 1-3 hours.
