Open versus closed rhinoplasty

Jeffrey E. Schreiber, MD answers: More closed rhinoplasty successes attributable to doctor's experience?

I am choosing a plastic surgeon. By seeing the before and after pictures, I have noticed, that doctors who performed more closed rhinoplasty surgeries have offen also better results. Is it because they have normally more experience?

Your observation is a good one, but don't choose your plastic surgeon solely based on the before and after photos. Rhinoplasty can be done open or closed, as you know, but when a significant amount of work needs to be done open rhinoplasty may be a better choice. Yet, if you are comfortable with your surgeon, you like his/her results (closed or open rhinoplasty), and you know what results you are looking for then you're ready!
