What is Rhinoplasty?

Techniques of Rhinoplasty

Following are the most popular techniques of rhinoplasty that are performed frequently;

Closed rhinoplasty:

In closed rhinoplasty, also known as endonasal rhinoplasty, the incisions are all made inside the nostrils. In closed type, the nose is not fully opened and the nasal structure is not exposed. The procedure is performed through a narrow opening as all the incisions are made inside the nose with no visible scars so it is the most advisable technique.

Another reason which makes it most advisable is its recovery time, it tends to heal faster with less swelling.

Open rhinoplasty:

In open rhinoplasty, the incision is made on the inside of the underside of the nose between the nostrils. It gives more coverage to the surgeon.

The reason why people are afraid of open type is because of scars due to trans-columellar incision but in some cases, the scar heals so well that it becomes virtually invisible. The second disadvantage is that there tends to be more swelling than with close type.

Tip rhinoplasty:

Tip rhinoplasty is a procedure that involves the reshaping of the nose tip. The reshaping of the nose creates a balance between the nose and other features of the nose. This is done for smoothing the bridge of the nose.

Filler rhinoplasty:

It is a non-surgical technique in which injectable filler material is used mainly to correct the shape and appearance of the nose.

It is also mostly done for some changes and modifications after the surgery. It is not a long-lasting procedure.
