What is rhinoplasty treatment?

This surgical procedure corrects deviations, congenital malformations and other conditions of the nose, whether innate or acquired throughout life. It is one of the most frequently performed procedures in plastic surgery.

Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed under local or general anaesthesia. The skin that covers the support of the nose, composed of bone and cartilage, is separated and then moulded to give the nose the desired shape.

Generally, this surgery lasts between 1 or 2 hours maximum and is performed in the operating theatre of the Clínica ICA. If you are interested in this type of surgical procedure you should consider that there are two types of rhinoplasty:

  1. Open rhinoplasty: this surgery is performed in the middle area of the nose to gain better access to the bones and cartilage.
  2. Closed rhinoplasty: unlike open rhinoplasty, closed rhinoplasty is performed on the nose through the inside of the nostrils, without making any type of incision that may leave scars.
