Summary
This study tests whether a single dose of tranexamic acid (TXA), given just before nose surgery, can reduce bleeding during the operation and lessen bruising and swelling afterward. Sixty adults having cosmetic or functional rhinoplasty will be randomly assigned to receive TXA or a placebo. The goal is to see if this common drug can improve recovery without causing serious side effects.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could give surgeons a simple way to reduce bleeding, bruising, and swelling after nose surgery, helping patients recover more comfortably.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 60 people, so results may not apply to everyone. TXA also carries rare risks like blood clots or allergic reactions.
