Common rhinoplasty methods and their advantages.
Rhinoplasty methods and techniques
Rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia, where the surgeon makes the necessary incisions and performs modifications according to the pre-determined plan. The operation may include removing excess tissue or modifying the bony and cartilaginous structure of the nose. Surgical techniques include the following:
* Open rhinoplasty: In this technique, an external incision is made that allows the skin of the nose to be lifted to reveal the bony and cartilaginous structure, allowing the surgeon to have a clear and accurate view of the nose and direct access to make the necessary modifications. This method is usually used in cases that require complex structural modifications or major repairs.
* Closed rhinoplasty: This technique is performed through internal incisions without creating external incisions, which means that there are no visible surgical marks. Closed rhinoplasty is an ideal option for cases that require simple modifications, and is suitable for those who wish to avoid external scars.
* Revision surgery: This procedure is performed in the event of unexpected developments or problems after the first surgery, where the surgeon makes corrective adjustments to address any problem that may appear after the primary operation.
