Types of Rhinoplasty:
<\/strong>
There are two types of rhinoplasty procedures. One is known as open rhinoplasty, where the surgeon has more control over the patients nose because they are able to see into it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The other type is closed rhinoplasty, where incisions are made on the inside of the nose, thus concealing any evidence of a nose job. However, in some cases your surgeon may not be able to get to the target areas in order to perform the surgery sufficiently.
There may be advantages and disadvantages of either procedure for your particular case, so be sure to ask your surgeon whether he or she performs open or closed nose jobs and find out which one is best for your situation.

Recovery:
<\/strong>
A splint is applied (removed in a week) to the top of the nose to keep it in place while healing and gauze packing is inserted for a couple of days to protect the septum from moving and minimizing bleeding.
