How many types of rhinoplasty techniques are there What's the difference?
There are three main techniques for rhinoplasty, and the doctor will choose the one that best suits each individual’s facial structure and needs.
Open rhinoplasty
This method involves an incision inside the nasal cavity, small in size at approximately 1-1.5 cm. The procedure takes about 1-2 hours and uses local anesthesia. It is suitable for cases that do not require significant internal structural modification. The advantages include quick recovery and no visible scar.
Closed rhinoplasty
This involves making a small incision at the base of the nose to allow the doctor to clearly see the internal structures. It's suitable for cases requiring significant modification, such as revision rhinoplasty or extending the tip to make it more prominent.
Semi-open surgery
This technique involves making incisions around both nostrils, allowing the doctor to see the internal structures more clearly than with a closed technique, but not as clearly as with an open technique. This technique helps to refine the tip of the nose, making it more slender and pointed.

Open Rhinoplasty
The surgery takes approximately 1-2 hours. The doctor will administer a local anesthetic to the surgical area, make an incision inside the nostril, reshape the nasal structure as planned, and close the incision with dissolvable sutures, which do not require removal afterward.
