For those patients who visit Dr. Rival for a nose job (rhinoplasty surgery) from Toronto and Mississauga, we encourage arrival at the hospital or surgical facility about 1.5 hours prior to the scheduled surgery time. A nurse will check you in and reconfirm your medical history and do some preoperative teaching with you. Dr. Rival and the anesthesiologist will meet with you prior to going into the operating room to answer any remaining questions.
To find out more about what to expect during recovery after rhinoplasty, request a rhinoplasty consultation with Dr. Rival at one of his three Toronto-area cosmetic surgery offices.
