Open rhinoplasty allows the surgeon greater access and visibility for delicate and complex alterations to the nasal structures. This technique involves an incision line on the outside of the nose; however, our skilled surgeons can place the incision so that the scar is barely visible when healed. Incision lines are not visible in closed rhinoplasty, as all incisions are made within the nostrils. This technique may also result in an easier, faster recovery. After an in-depth consultation and careful evaluation, one of our board-certified plastic surgeons in Charlotte, Gastonia, Shelby, Hickory, Lake Norman and surrounding cities will recommend the best surgical approach to rhinoplasty for you.
