The rhinoplasty is performed through two techniques, the most famous, and the procedure is performed either through the closed nose technique or
through the open nose technique; the patient is subjected to total anesthesia, whether the closed nose or the open nose is used.
• Closed nose: The doctor hides cracks inside the nose in this technique, and makes an internal incision between the upper and lower cartilages,
this technique takes less time and a faster recovery period.
• Open nose: In this technique, the doctor performs an external incision through the columella, which is the narrow strip of tissue that separates
the two nostrils. This technique is used in cases of obvious deviations and distortions.
The internal or external cracks enable the doctor to gently lift the skin covering the bones and cartilages of the nose, enabling the doctor to reshape the nose.
