RHINOPLASTY SERVICES
Dr Leo Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery performs two nose job procedures:
1) Closed Rhinoplasty: Also called endonasal surgery, this procedure involves creating incisions inside the nostrils to access the nose bone and cartilage. This type of rhinoplasty is less invasive and does not leave visible scars.
2) Open Rhinoplasty: An incision is created at the base of the nose bridge, and the skin is folded up for better access to the nose bone and cartilage. This is more invasive but effective in more serious conditions like a disfigured nose. The incision will leave a scar and will take a longer time to heal.
