RHINOPLASTY SERVICES
The Plastic Surgery Practice uses the following two procedures:
1) Closed Incision Method: A small incision is made in the membrane within the nostrils through which the implant is inserted. The benefit of this method is that the patient does not undergo invasive surgery.
2) Open Incision Method: An incision is made between the nostrils opening up the structure within. This method makes possible more dramatic results.
