What is a Closed Rhinoplasty Procedure?
A closed rhinoplasty is a type of facial plastic surgery and nose surgery that is designed to address aesthetic and functional concerns without any external incisions. Unlike an open rhinoplasty, with this nasal surgery, all changes and incisions are made inside the nostrils, so there is no outside scarring whatsoever. This method also means less swelling and a shorter recovery time.
To ensure you receive the results you’re looking for, Dr. Rothaus will customize this procedure to your unique needs.
Who is a Good Candidate for a Closed Nose Job?
For patients who are looking to moderate changes to their nose, like reducing the nasal tip, smoothing out a dorsal hump, or narrowing the nostrils, a closed rhinoplasty is typically a perfect solution. On top of that, there are certain criteria Dr. Rothaus looks for before determining if this is the right procedure for you.
Ideal Candidates for a Closed Rhinoplasty in New York City Are:
- In good overall health
- Have realistic expectations of treatment
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding
- Looking for no external scarring
- Looking for a shorter recovery time than a closed rhinoplasty
Closed Rhinoplasty Benefits
A closed rhinoplasty in NYC comes with several different benefits, including the following:
- No visible scarring: Unlike an open rhinoplasty, you don’t have to worry about any visible scarring. Any and all scars are hidden within the nostrils.
- Long-lasting results: The results of a closed rhinoplasty are meant to last a lifetime. While you may notice some minor changes over time, most of the results will remain.
- Boost in confidence: Most patients notice a significant boost in their confidence after their closed rhinoplasty. With the new changes to your nose, you’ll have more facial harmony and love what you see when you look in the mirror.
- Shorter recovery: Compared to an open rhinoplasty, the recovery time with a closed rhinoplasty is much shorter. You should be able to get back to work and most activities within a few weeks.
- Shorter surgical time: A closed rhinoplasty typically doesn’t take more than 1-2 hours, and you’ll be able to go back home right after surgery.
