Does pulling out the alar cartilages through the nostrils permanently distort or destroy the cartilages or any other part of the nasal framework?
Answer: Closed rhinoplasty techniques Closed rhinoplasty is less invasive than open rhinoplasty, and patients heal much faster with less swelling. All of the incisions are placed inside the nose, so there is not a visible scar on the columella. The delivery approach does not distort the cartilages since they're only exposed through marginal incision just like an open rhinoplasty. For many examples of closed rhinoplasty please see the link and the video below to our closed rhinoplasty photo gallery.

Answer: What are the risks of closed rhinoplasty using the "delivery" approach? As long as you have found an experienced rhinoplasty surgeon that performs frequent rhinoplasty via the delivery approach then there shouldn't be any increased risk. This is a widely accepted approach for tip modification and enables your surgeon to create more changes in your nasal tip than a standard non-delivery closed approach.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: What are the risks of closed rhinoplasty using the "delivery" approach? There are no increased risks if you are doing closed rhinoplasty several times a week and can do virtually anything through this approach. Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties and rhinoplasty revisions each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
