Classic Rhinoplasty
Classic rhinoplasty, also known as traditional rhinoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at reshaping the nose to enhance its appearance and/or functionality. It is performed to correct aesthetic flaws such as the size, shape, or
What is Classic Rhinoplasty?
During a classic rhinoplasty, the surgeon makes incisions inside the nose (closed rhinoplasty) or both inside and outside (open rhinoplasty), depending on the extent of the necessary modifications. The incisions allow access to the bony and cartilaginous structures of the nose, which are then reshaped, reduced, enlarged, or repositioned according to the specific goals of the patient.
Once the modifications are made, the skin is redraped over the new nose structure, and sutures are applied to hold the tissues in place during healing. Nasal splints may also be used to support the nose during the recovery phase.

Before / After results
What happens after treatment?
The recovery period after a classic rhinoplasty can last for several weeks. Bruising and swelling are common in the first few days following the surgery, but they gradually fade over time. Patients are typically advised to limit their physical activities, avoid touching their nose, and wear a nasal splint for some time.
How long do results last?
The results of classic rhinoplasty become visible as swelling decreases and tissues heal. It's important to note that the final results may take several months, even up to a year, to fully manifest. Once complete healing occurs, most patients are satisfied with the improvements to the appearance and/or functionality of their nose. It's essential to discuss your expectations and goals in detail with a qualified surgeon before deciding to undergo classic rhinoplasty. The surgeon will evaluate your facial anatomy, discuss appropriate surgical options, and provide accurate information about expected outcomes, potential risks, and necessary postoperative care.
