What is rhinoplasty?

Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose in harmony with the face while preserving or improving breathing. A septum correction can be performed in the same operation.

Closed rhinoplasty uses incisions inside the nose; open rhinoplasty adds a small incision between the nostrils for greater visibility. The choice depends on your anatomy.
