Modern Advances in Rhinoplasty

Thursday, July 8th, 2010

Modern advances in rhinoplasty allow surgeons the opportunity to select from a wide range of techniques to give each patient a really unique result, going as far as correcting even the smallest features the patient is not happy  with. The patient and the doctor are free to design a nose that adds an aesthetic beauty to the face not possible without cosmetic enhancement.


Rhinoplasty surgeries are more concerned with aesthetics and artistry more than ever. The nose surgeon will take all the elements of your face into consideration when planning your nose job, as “facial harmony” is the first priority. To architect your ideal nose, your surgeon can use technology such as computer imaging, nasal endoscopy to explore your nasal anatomy, and other methods of internal evaluation.

You can have a look through magazines in order to decide on the “perfect nose”, view before and after photos, and discuss specific sizes, shapes, and relative proportions with your surgeon. Take every detail into consideration; think about your profile, and how you’d like to look from the front and sides. Figure out specific features of your nose that you are not satisfied with, and features on others that you find particularly attractive. Your cosmetic surgeon should be able to interpret and balance all of this information to create a nose that is uniquely you.

As a perfect model is designed, your rhinoplasty surgeon will decide on the right nose surgery procedure:

• Open Method – An incision is made on the columella between the nostrils

• Closed Method – An incision is made inside the nostrils

During the nose surgery, skin is separated from the underlying bone and cartilage, the bone and cartilage is then artfully shaped with a combination of surgical skill and advanced tools, and finally the skin is then draped over the new nose.
