Avoiding external scars during rhinoplasty
Question asked: - 07. 12. 2023
I've had three consultations, and most doctors want to make an incision between the nostrils to pull the skin back, remove the little bump and some of the cartilage on the tip of the nose. Is there a way to avoid an external scar?

There are several different rhinoplasty techniques, and it is possible to perform the operation without an external scar, using a method called "closed rhinoplasty". This technique implies that all incisions are made inside the nose, without the need for incisions on the outer skin between the nostrils, thus avoiding an external scar. This method is suitable for many cases, but it is important to note that in some more complex cases, open rhinoplasty (with an incision between the nostrils) may be necessary to achieve a precise and long-lasting result. I recommend that you consult with a surgeon who specializes in closed rhinoplasty to determine which technique is best for you. case.

I broke my nose as a child, which is now crooked and makes it difficult for me to breathe on the right side. I am 25 years old and I am thinking about surgery. Is the surgery painful? Can you tell me more about the postoperative course and how long I will have to stay in the hospital?
