Rhinoplasty involves reshaping the bone, cartilage, and soft tissues of the nose to achieve the desired shape and size. The appropriate surgical technique is chosen based on the current condition of the nose and the desired changes, and includes:

• Open rhinoplasty: An incision is made across the columella (the skin between the nostrils) to lift the skin and expose the nasal structure.
• Closed rhinoplasty: Incisions are made inside the nose, minimizing visible external scarring.
• Cartilage grafting: Cartilage taken from the nasal septum, ear, or rib can be used to rebuild or support parts of the nose. Rhinoplasty is essential for improving the aesthetic appearance of the nose, correcting deformities resulting from accidents or birth defects, and improving breathing function in some cases.
