Everything you need to know about ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia
Rhinoplasty is cosmetic surgery that corrects, sculpts, reshapes and refines the most prominent part of the face: the nose.
With this operation it is possible to shorten or build up the nasal tip, and to correct many nose shapes, for example a:
- Hooked nose,
- Greek nose,
- Egyptian nose,
- Ski-slope nose,
- Aquiline nose,
- Humped nose…
On top of that, ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia is a surgical technique that reshapes the bony part of the nose. It relies on modern, miniaturised instruments.
It works on the nasal bones only: cartilage and the tip are corrected with the usual instruments. Compared with a standard rhinoplasty in Tunisia, it causes less swelling and bruising in the first few days[1].
Who can have an ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia?
An ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia can be performed from late adolescence, once the nose has finished growing.
This operation is suitable for women and men alike, for cosmetic and/or medical reasons, in particular when the patient has a malformation or a breathing problem.

How to arrange an ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia
Our coordinator passes your request to a surgeon who performs ultrasonic rhinoplasty. You will most likely be asked to send photographs so the specialist can assess your nose.
Our coordinator then contacts you again by WhatsApp or email to give you the surgeon’s pre-diagnosis and your all-inclusive medical stay quote.
How does an ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia work?
As mentioned above, a first remote consultation is arranged, during which the surgeon assesses the nose and finds out what the patient expects.
For complex cases and for patients seeking an ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia to fix a breathing problem, a CT scan will be requested to examine the nasal pyramid (size, deviation of the nasal septum, and so on).
Once you have accepted our medical quote, we will start planning your trip and every detail of your cosmetic surgery.
Before an ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia
Because ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia is done under general anaesthesia, you will need to arrive at the clinic with pre-operative tests. Just before the operation your anaesthetist will come to see you, to reassure you and check your blood results.
The day of the ultrasonic rhinoplasty
To sculpt the nose and give it the desired shape, the surgeon often changes the nasal bone. Ultrasonic rhinoplasty differs from standard rhinoplasty in the type, safety and precision of the instruments used.
During a standard rhinoplasty, the cosmetic surgeon uses mechanical tools. For ultrasonic rhinoplasty, the surgeon uses a piezo device, a miniaturised instrument that vibrates with ultrasound.
The operation lasts from 45 minutes to 2 hours[2], a time the ultrasonic technique does not lengthen[1]. At the end of the procedure the surgeon stabilises the nose with a splint or an external cast:
- To protect the nose from knocks,
- To stop the bones moving,
- And to hold the shape of the nose while it heals.
What are the drawbacks of ultrasonic rhinoplasty?
Ultrasonic rhinoplasty acts on the nasal bones only: it changes nothing about the work on cartilage or on the tip. Its benefit shows in the first few days after surgery, and meta-analyses of randomised trials provide no data on the long-term result[3].
After an ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia
After your ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia, you will spend the night at the clinic. You will be discharged the next day and will rest during a recovery stay lasting at least until the splint comes off.
The surgeon removes the cast between the fifth and eighth day[2]. Do not be alarmed if you notice swelling around the nose or bruising around the eyes: this is entirely normal. Especially as the final appearance is only reached between six months and a year[2].
Bruising fades within a few weeks, while slight swelling can persist for several months. You are quite likely to feel some pain during your recovery. Your doctor will prescribe painkillers to ease it.
Precautions after an ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia
Even though rhinoplasty concerns the face only, patients are advised against going back to sport. Intense physical activity stays on hold for as long as the surgeon decides.
The shape obtained by ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Tunisia is meant to last, with no guarantee of a perfect result. Its appearance may nonetheless change slightly over time. A visible irregularity should be discussed with the surgeon, who will judge whether a touch-up is worthwhile.
Not every Tunisian clinic publishes its rates or the exact content of its packages. Our British coordinator helps you free of charge to compare quotes for your operation in Tunisia.
FAQ - Frequently asked questions
How much does an ultrasonic rhinoplasty cost in Tunisia and in the UK?
In 2026, an ultrasonic rhinoplasty costs between £1,900 and £2,750 in Tunisia, against £4,500 to £7,500 in the UK. A revision or an ethnic procedure costs more. For comparison: ultrasonic rhinoplasty in Turkey.
Is ultrasonic rhinoplasty covered by the NHS?
Not when it is cosmetic: purely aesthetic nose surgery is paid for entirely by the patient. Only the correction of a documented breathing problem, such as a septoplasty, may be considered by the NHS. To find out what your own cover provides, check with the NHS.
Is ultrasonic rhinoplasty less painful?
Randomised trials report less pain on the second day than with standard instruments[1], and less need for painkillers[3]. The first few days are still those of any surgery: swelling, bruising and a blocked nose.
When can you fly after an ultrasonic rhinoplasty?
The return flight is booked after the follow-up visit and the removal of the splint, with the agreement of the surgeon who operated. The return date, the aftercare to arrange once back in the UK and a contact for any questions should all be set out in the quote.
Does ultrasonic rhinoplasty correct a deviated septum?
The ultrasonic instrument works on bone, whereas the nasal septum is partly cartilage. A deviation is corrected by a septoplasty, often combined in a septorhinoplasty: see septorhinoplasty in Tunisia.
What is the difference between ultrasonic and ethnic rhinoplasty?
Ethnic rhinoplasty describes an aim: changing the nose while respecting the face’s original features. The ultrasonic technique describes a tool. The two can be combined, as the page on ethnic rhinoplasty in Tunisia explains in detail.
What should you do if a complication arises after returning to the UK?
A literature review places the safety problems of cosmetic surgery abroad in the follow-up and the management of complications[5]. Before leaving, you need to know who will provide the follow-up checks once you are back in the UK.
