Many plastic surgeons
perform this procedure
through incisions inside
the nostrils, while
others prefer to make an
open rhinoplasty
incision in the
columella, especially
for more complex cases,
the scars later go
unnoticed especially
those found inside the
nose.
During surgery, the skin
of the nose is separated
from its support, made
up of bone and
cartilage is sculpted to
