Rhinoplasty: Q&A
Ask a QuestionWhere can I find the best plastic surgeons who do closed rhinoplasty?

Closed or Open Rhinoplasty
There is no list of surgeons doing closed rhinoplasty, as almost all surgeons do some rhinoplasties closed.

Why do you want to have open rhinoplasty

I would suggest that you look for the best plastic surgeon for your nose and let your doctor decide which technique is going to work better for you.

Best Plastic Surgeon
Hi,
You can start by looking at before and afters on websites. If you like what you see, make an appointment for a consultation, meet the surgeon and take it from there. You can ask to speak to patients of that surgeon etc. Make sure you see more than one surgeon.
Best,
Dr.S.
