What is Preservation Rhinoplasty VAPOR Nose®?
Many people have an unwanted hump on their nose that affects the shape of their profile. If you’ve decided to have a surgical procedure to address this specific concern, your primary concern is to have this hump reduced or reshaped during your surgery. VAPOR (Vaporized Assisted Profile Option Reduction) Nose is a surgical technique that can achieve this goal by instantaneously vaporizing the hump using radiofrequency energy during a non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure. VAPOR Nose is a rhinoplasty alternative that is safe, predictable, and leads to a natural result. A few benefits to the Preservation Rhinoplasty VAPOR Nose procedure:
- No knife or incisions required
- No sharp cartilage edges
- No risk of over-resection
- No age limitation
- Maintains the integrity of the inner lining of the nose for support of form and function

Preservation Rhinoplasty VAPOR Nose Candidates
The best candidates for VAPOR Nose are patients looking to reduce protruding nasal bumps or humps with the help of a board-certified plastic surgeon. Radiofrequency technology allows Dr. Diktaban to perform a non-surgical nose job with unmatched precision. Many patients seeking rhinoplasty worry that their results may be too extreme or unnatural, but the VAPOR Nose nonsurgical rhinoplasty technique helps Dr. Diktaban avoid over-reduction of the nasal cartilage.
It’s important to be in good overall health and have realistic expectations for what nose surgery can achieve to be an ideal candidate for any rhinoplasty surgery or nonsurgical nose job. In addition, Dr. Diktaban will discuss your goals for Preservation Rhinoplasty VAPOR Nose during a consultation to ensure you have accurate expectations from the procedure.
What Happens During a Preservation Rhinoplasty VAPOR Nose Procedure?
During traditional rhinoplasty, you have two options for the incisions that might be made: open or closed. Open rhinoplasties involve making an incision through the columella that divides the nostrils. Closed rhinoplasties avoid this by making incisions directly in the interior tissue of the nose.
Dr. Diktaban prefers the closed rhinoplasty approach when performing VAPOR Nose to avoid the external scarring associated with the open approach whenever possible. During your rhinoplasty procedure, Dr. Diktaban can use VAPOR Nose to reshape your nasal cartilage. Preservation Rhinoplasty VAPOR Nose involves a specialized handheld device that delivers a radiofrequency current to the cartilage in your nose. This current allows Dr. Diktaban to make precise adjustments to the size and shape of the cartilaginous structures within. This means the bump of your nose can be lowered safely, incrementally, and precisely without using nose job surgery tools.
Preservation Rhinoplasty VAPOR Nose doesn’t leave any additional scars. The radiofrequency technology affects only the nasal cartilage— thus, the rest of your rhinoplasty procedure proceeds normally, with no extra bleeding, bruising, or pain.

Results and Recovery
Dr. Diktaban will provide explicit instructions to follow after your rhinoplasty procedure, including details about medications, swelling, and follow-up appointments. You can expect to take at least one or two weeks of downtime where you should avoid strenuous activities. It can take time for swelling to subside and for your final results to emerge, but the final result is a reshaped nasal profile that fits your face and brings the rest of your features into harmony.
