Closed rhinoplasty: Royal aesthetic Surgery✓

Closed rhinoplasty is one of the most well-known types of nose surgery, used to alter the shape of the nose and improve functionality. This procedure is minimally invasive compared to open rhinoplasty, as it does not require external incisions; all incisions are made inside the nasal passages. Closed rhinoplasty is ideal for patients who want to improve the appearance of their nose while maintaining a natural look and minimal scarring.

Advantages of Closed Rhinoplasty

Closed rhinoplasty offers numerous advantages, making it a very popular choice among patients:

• Smaller Scars: The main advantage of this technique is that all incisions are made inside the nose, meaning there are no external scars. This is particularly important for patients who want to maintain a natural appearance of the nose and face.

• Faster Recovery: Closed rhinoplasty generally requires a shorter recovery time compared to open rhinoplasty. The less invasive nature of the procedure allows for a quicker return to normal activities and reduces the risk of complications.

• Less Postoperative Pain: Because fewer tissue and cartilage structures are cut during the procedure, patients typically experience less pain and discomfort after the surgery.

• More Natural Results: Closed rhinoplasty allows the surgeon to shape the nose precisely, with minimal incisions, resulting in more natural and aesthetically pleasing outcomes.

Who Is Closed Rhinoplasty Suitable For?

Closed rhinoplasty is usually recommended for patients who want to change the shape of their nose but do not require significant structural modifications. Some typical reasons for this surgery include:

• Correction of mild to moderate nose deformities.

• Correction of nasal humps or imperfections in the nose profile.

• Aesthetic changes that do not require large adjustments or structural changes to the nose.

• Correction of inherited or minor traumatic nose deformities (smaller changes).

This type of surgery is not recommended for patients with significant nasal damage (e.g., after trauma), as open rhinoplasty may be necessary for better access to larger parts of the nose.

How Does Closed Rhinoplasty Procedure Work?

The closed rhinoplasty procedure typically lasts between 1 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity of the surgery.

• Preparation: Prior to the surgery, the patient will be under general anesthesia, meaning they will not feel any pain during the procedure. The surgeon will advise you to refrain from eating or drinking for several hours before the surgery.

• Incisions: The surgeon makes small incisions inside the nose through which access to the nasal cartilage and bones is gained. There are no external incisions, so scars will be invisible.

• Shaping the Nose: During the surgery, the surgeon will carefully reshape the nasal bone and cartilage according to the patient's preferences, ensuring a natural and harmonious symmetry.

• Closing the Incisions: Once the necessary changes are made, the surgeon carefully closes the incisions. In some cases, small nasal packing may be placed, which is usually removed a few days after the surgery.

Postoperative Period and Recovery

Recovery after closed rhinoplasty is typically faster than after open rhinoplasty. Most patients can return to normal activities within 7 to 10 days. However, full recovery and the final shape of the nose are usually visible only after a few months, once the swelling completely subsides. Here's what you can expect after surgery:

• Swelling and Bruising: Swelling and bruising are normal and typically last 1 to 2 weeks. Most patients notice a significant reduction in swelling within the first few days.

• Follow-up Appointments: Follow-up appointments with the surgeon will be necessary several times in the first month to monitor tissue regeneration and recovery.

• Results: Initial results will be visible within a few months, but the final shape of the nose usually forms after 6 to 12 months.
