What Different Nose Surgeries are Available?

Open Rhinoplasty

A patient who wants to have a significant amount of work done to their nose will likely require an open rhinoplasty procedure. This is one of the most common rhinoplasty techniques, as it gives the surgeon the best vantage point of the internal structure of the nose. The incision is made between the nostrils. The skin is then lifted off of the nose, allowing the surgeon to complete the procedure. In addition, the surgeon is able to make the most precise improvements during this operation.

Closed Rhinoplasty

Some patients prefer the closed rhinoplasty surgery. When using this approach, the surgeon will make the incision inside the nose. Given the fact that all of the surgical work is completed internally, it is important to understand that only subtle changes and augmentations can take place. However, this operation is shorter, results in less swelling, and boasts a shorter recovery period after the fact.

Revision Rhinoplasty

The revision rhinoplasty is a cosmetic surgery that is performed after a primary rhinoplasty has been found to be unsuccessful. Patients who were not satisfied with the results of a primary rhinoplasty can opt to have this surgery performed. It is a more complicated procedure, and the recovery time is longer than the primary rhinoplasty.

Filler Rhinoplasty

A filler rhinoplasty is a non-surgical rhinoplasty procedure in which dermal filler injections are used. These liquid fillers can fix minor issues with the nose, such as a bump on the nasal bridge.

Regardless of the type of rhinoplasty surgery that a patient chooses to have performed, they can expect stunning results that allow them to feel better about their appearance and more confident in their daily lives. The rhinoplasty recovery lasts for about 2 weeks, and patients should spend that time resting and recuperating while their body heals after the surgery. While people will be able to return to work and other obligations after two weeks, it is important to understand that the nasal structure will still be fragile and there may be some lingering swelling for months.
