Do I need any special prescriptions before rhinoplasty surgery?
Most patients do not need any special prescriptions before rhinoplasty surgery. Please let us know of any special medical concerns you may have. We do ask you to start Vitamin C, which promotes wound healing, one week before rhinoplasty surgery. We also ask you to start Arnica, a natural herb that significantly decreases bruising, the day before rhinoplasty surgery. Medications used after your nasal surgery are discussed below. You will be asked not to eat or drink anything after midnight the night before rhinoplasty surgery.
