Rhinoplasty Aurea Clinic Seville

What does it consist of?

Rhinoplasty or nose surgery resolves aesthetic and functional problems in the nose. It can be done with the dorsum bone being shaped, correcting the deviations, the aperture of nasal orifices, correcting congenital malformations as cleft lip or cleft palate. It also correct the ones caused by diseases or traumas derived of respiratory problems.

In view of what many people think, when we operate a nose, we do not intend it to be similar to one or another we know, but we try to approximate to its size and

shape in each patient, achieving changes that improve the general aspect without 

changing the particular appearance of each face.

When the objective is to change the external appearance of the nose, to make its aspect better and more harmonious and beautiful, we are speaking about rhinoplasty. However, if we pretend to improve the respiratory function as well or to correct the nasal septum, we refer to rhinoseptoplasty, sometimes with aesthetic repercussions, but always functional.

There are isolated cases which are different, with skin alteration and/or other nasal estructures. We call this Reconstructive rhinoplasty (caused by wounds, tumors, burns, etc.)

Technique

Rhinoplasty Technique

Open rhinoplasty

The most frequent, since it allows us to obtain better results when working on the tip, and make major corrections, add certain sutures and grafts … The disadvantages of open rhinoplasty are that it will leave a minimal external scar on the columnar and will present inflammation for a longer time .

Closed rhinoplasty

The one that was classically done before being made open. It still has many followers, but it allows a worse handling of the tip.
