Before scheduling rhinoplasty, individuals should think clearly and consider why they want to have the surgery and what they hope to achieve by having it. They must then consult their surgeons to discuss these important factors.

Each rhinoplasty should be performed with a personalized plan according to the patient's nose structure and facial balance along with their realistic expectations.

It is very important to establish effective patient- surgeon communication to discuss the pre and post-operation periods in detail. The patient is expected to be sincere and open about their goals and mental state, whereas the patient should be clear about the possible risks and outcomes of the surgery.

Before the operation patient should inform their surgeon about their medical history providing details such as previous treatments, surgeries- if any- medications they are taking or have taken, known allergies, alcohol and tobacco use, and respiratory problems.

The patient should be given clear information on how to prepare themselves for the procedure, such as alcohol and tobacco use and pre-surgery diet. It is very crucial to adhere to these instructions to have a successful surgery.
