Hello~

💎Your beauty universe! This is Uber Plastic Surgery :)💎

Rhinoplasty can be performed using two main methods: the open approach, where the nose is opened through an incision in the columella and internal mucosa, and the closed approach, which involves only internal incisions without cutting the columella.

The primary difference lies in whether the incision is made in a visible or hidden location.

In open rhinoplasty, because an incision is made across the columella, the scar may take some time to fade. However, closed rhinoplasty has the advantage of leaving no visible external scarring since the incisions are made inside the nostrils.

Today, we will look into whether closed rhinoplasty actually offers a faster recovery compared to the open method.

Does closed rhinoplasty offer faster recovery and less swelling than open rhinoplasty?

Generally speaking, recovery may be slightly faster and swelling may be less severe.

However, with the closed approach, it is impossible to fully visualize all the internal structures of the nose during surgery.

This makes it difficult to make precise adjustments, such as correcting a shifted implant or aggressively changing the tip’s rotation and height.

Since major swelling from open rhinoplasty typically subsides within about two weeks, choosing the closed method solely for recovery or swelling concerns may result in more disadvantages than benefits in terms of the final aesthetic outcome.
