Rhinoplasty: New Innovative ‘Open Rhinoplasty’ Technique Has Better Results

Rhinoplasty surgery is one of the most common cosmetic surgeries performed. A new Open Rhinoplasty method of surgery is now able to provide patients with a more natural look.

The new ‘open rhinoplasty’ technique, recently developed for nose surgery, allows surgeons to have more control over the procedure and therefore more precise results.

The key to the new technique involves an extra incision made along the skin between the nostrils in order to be able to fold back the skin and expose the cartilage of the nose. In doing so, the surgeon can sculpt the tissue in a more precisely because they can see the tissue. This enhanced visibility to the internal tissue enables the surgeon to see exactly what the final nose shape will be.

The one downside to the procedure is slightly increased swelling and the nose will take a little longer to fully heal. According to doctors, however, the results are well worth the extra wait.
