Rhinoplasty is plastic surgery performed to improve the size or shape of the nose or to revive proper function to the nasal structures. Many individuals turn to rhinoplasty when they are unhappy with the appearance of the noses and want a more aesthetic appearance.

If you should be thinking about getting rhinoplasty, it may be comforting to know you're not alone. Over 220,000 people had surgical nose reshaping procedures in 2013.

The most common rhinoplasties are called Open Rhinoplasty and Closed Rhinoplasty.A cosmetic surgeon are often required to do a Revision Rhinoplasty, also called a Secondary Rhinoplasty.For minor changes to the nose, there's also a non-surgical procedure called Filler Rhinoplasty.

Here will be the four basic cosmetic and medical nose reshaping procedures:

Open Rhinoplasty

The Open Rhinoplasty procedure is useful for major nose reshaping. In this surgery, the doctor could make an incision in the strip of skin separating the nostrils. With the skin and soft tissue lifted off, the surgeon can easily see and work with the underlying nasal anatomy.

The benefits of Open Rhinoplasty are giving the surgeon an immediate visualization of the cartilage and other nasal anatomy, and the capacity to manipulate nasal shape with more control and precision.

Closed Rhinoplasty

With a Closed Rhinoplasty, the incisions are made within the nose. Then, as in a Open Rhinoplasty, the skin is separated from the bone and cartilage, allowing the surgeon access to the underlying structure. The bone and cartilage will then be reshaped, removed or augmented to accomplish the required shape or structural correction.

In addition to the precise location of the incision, and the little resultant scar closed rhinoplasty has the advantage of decreased amount of time in surgery, less swelling and less postoperative healing time.

(Your surgeon will discuss these procedures with you and let you know which he or she thinks is right for the surgical work having to be done.)

Revision Rhinoplasty

Revision Rhinoplasty can also be known as Secondary Rhinoplasty because it is a second surgery performed to fix issues that allow us and persist following a previous surgical procedure on the nose.

The situation could be one of appearance. Perhaps the patient does nothing like the end result of the initial surgery. Or a revision rhinoplasty might have to be performed due to some structural difficulty or because of a trauma to accident occurring following a person has had nose altering surgery.

Sometimes it is a minor problem that can be easily fixed in an office visit. Other times the problem can be complex, making the correction harder to do than the initial surgery. Secondary rhinoplasty can be done either with an open or a sealed procedure.

Filler Rhinoplasty quality rhinoplasty operations in brisbane

In a Filler Rhinoplasty procedure, your doctor uses injectable fillers to change the form of your nose. With this particular non-surgical approach the doctor can smooth out sharp angles and bumps, change the form of the tip of the nose and restore a certain amount of symmetry. Since filler rhinoplasty is definitely an augmentation procedure, that's, material will be added, it cannot reduce how big someone's nose.
