TECHNIQUES USED IN RHINOPLASTY

There’re two main techniques used in the Rhinoplasty operation, one is the closed nose technique, the second is the open nose technique. In both, the doctors have to use general anesthesia.

  • Closed nose: In this technique, the doctor makes an internal incision between the upper and lower cartilage to hide the cracks inside the nose. This technique takes less time and faster recovery period.
  • Open nose: In this technique, the doctor makes an external incision through a tube. This technique is used in the cases aberrations and obvious deformities.
