Understanding Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure designed to enhance the symmetry and proportions of the nose. While predominantly performed for cosmetic purposes, the procedure also addresses structural misalignments resulting from traumatic incidents.
Key Areas of Nose Reshaping
Rhinoplasty focuses on several critical aspects of nasal architecture:
- Nose size and overall proportions
- Nasal bridge width
- Nostril positioning
- Correction of contour deformities
- Addressing crooked nasal structures
- Resolving nasal asymmetry
Surgical Techniques
Dr. Bartlett employs two primary surgical approaches for rhinoplasty: closed and open techniques. In the closed method, incisions remain hidden inside the nose, while the open approach involves a minimal external incision between the nostrils.
Surgical Process
During the procedure, the nasal skin is gently raised, allowing precise reshaping through cartilage removal or grafting. When necessary, small, controlled bone breaks (osteotomies) in the upper nasal bones enable further structural modification, ultimately enhancing the nose's surface appearance.
