combat sports

Can you do combat sports after a rhinoplasty surgery? After doing all the recoveries and so.

Procedure: Rhinoplasty
Location: Córdoba, AS

Thank you for sharing your question. Once fully healed a patient could compete in combat sports with no additional risk of injury as a patient who did not have a rhinoplasty. Hope this helps.

I usually allow patients to resume contact sports after 6-8 weeks depending upon the activity. Best of Luck Dr Harrell
