Is the nose bone broken during open/closed Rhinoplasty ?I have a big nose but when i feel my tip, its just a lot of skin and the pointy tip is much lower. can this extra skin be removed during Rhinoplasty?
Answer: Rhinoplasty Hello! Thank you for your question.As far as I can understand from your question.According due your says you might have a bulbous tip and it can be correct with rhinoplasty surgery.If you can provide photos with better lighting, from the side of your face and 1 meter away I would be able to make a proper evaluation.It would be more convenient to decide with face-to-face consultation. Best regards!

Answer: Rhinoplasty Hi @sweet_lavendar! Excellent question. A rhinoplasty in my opinion is one of the most difficult procedures to perform. The skill, artistry, and technique of the surgeon is very important for outcome. In my practice, I utilize piezosurgery. Piezosurgery is a more gentle technique that allows for greater precision. Less bruising and swelling is common with Piezosurgery. In a typical rhinoplasty, a hammer and chisel technique is performed leading to more inadvertent fractures. I hope this was helpful!

Answer: Nasal bones and skin during rhinoplasty: Nasal bones and skin during rhinoplasty: during a rhinoplasty, if there is a dorsal hump of bone it is rasped which means it is filed down. The bridge is then narrowed by cutting the bones on each side where they meet the face and moving them in. This is what is meant by “breaking“ the bones. The bones are not actually broken, they are cut and moved in a controlled way. The skin is not cut during rhinoplasty. The underlying skeletal framework is reduced ,or in some cases, rarely built up. When it is reduced the skin then has to contract to the smaller skeletal size, Which it usually does quite well. In some cases steroid injection to the area of the tip and the supratip above it may help that process

Answer: Piezo Technique In my practice I prefer open technique called Piezo where we use a special device that uses ultrasonic waves to shape the bone instead of old fashion style where the bone is hammer and chiseled.
