Rhinoplasty: Procedure and Its Types


Rhinoplasty refers to the cosmetic procedure used primarily to enhance the appearance of the nose. In this type of procedure, the bone and the nasal cartilage are modified, or some tissue is added. Rhinoplasty can also be carried to repair nasal fractures and other problems associated with the structure of the nose. The goal in this kind of procedures is to restore the appearance of pre-injury for creating a normal appearance. 

While undergoing rhinoplasty, the modifications in the nasal cartilages and bones are done or even some tissue is added, to enhance the visual appeal of the nose. Rhinoplasty is also commonly carried out to repair nasal fractures. Septorhinoplasty is another procedure performed commonly for patients facing nasal obstruction. Rhinoplasty does not only helps in improving the appearance but also removes any internal obstructions and stabilizes structures that may be hindering nasal breathing.

Types of Rhinoplasty

Closed Rhinoplasty

In closed Rhinoplasty all incisions are hidden inside the nose with no appearance of scars.  In this process, the soft tissue is lifted slightly upward to access the bone and cartilage for performing the required changes. Some of the advantages of closed rhinoplasty, due to its less-invasive nature:
     Decreased nasal tissue irritation because of the lack of a columellar incision
     Decreased chances of nasal-tip support reduction
     Fewer chances of post-operative oedema
     Decreases noticeable scarring
     Faster patient recovery post-operation

Open Rhinoplasty

Open rhinoplasty is the most popular type of rhinoplasty for patients who require extensive treatment to correct their nose. In this method, incisions are made in the skin between your nostrils below your nose, an area known as the columella. In the next step, the skin is lifted to open the interior of the nasal cavity, making access for performing the required reshaping.
open rhinoplasty is often chosen as the primary method of surgery. Open rhinoplasty procedures are ideal for patients having the following issues:
     Collapsed valves from earlier removal of the hump
     structural deformities due to genetics in the nose (i.e. cleft lip palate)
     Endowed deformities in the nose (due to severe trauma that needs grafting)
     Disappointment with the cosmetic the appearance of the nose after undergoing previous nasal surgery
After the completion of open rhinoplasty, the columella is sutured and the taping of the nose is done for stabilization purposes. After the process of taping, a nasal asplint is placed over the tape. The splint helps in protecting the delicate tissues of the nose while it's healing. It is then removed approximately one a week after the surgery.

Filler Rhinoplasty

A filler rhinoplasty is a rare type of nose surgery. It is a non-surgical type of Rhinoplasty and can be carried out by, cosmetic surgeons, dermatologists or any general plastic surgeons. injectable filler is used for correcting minute imperfections in the nose. A filler rhinoplasty is the choice of Rhinoplasty for those who seek minimal change to the nose.

Revision Rhinoplasty

Revision Rhinoplasty is opted by the patient if they are unhappy with the results of their primary rhinoplasty or if they want any further changes that were not previously desired in the primary rhinoplasty. Revision rhinoplasty is an excellent option for those who want a “touch-up.”  sometimes the main reason to go for revision surgery is breathing difficulty or a bump or some type of irregularity in the bridge of the nose.
