In this procedure, first, the surgeon makes an incision to access the nasal bone and cartilage. This incision is usually made inside the nose, so there might be no visible scarring after the surgery. The surgeon may remove some cartilage or bone from parts of the patient’s own body if needed, or in some cases, may use synthetic fillers to add them in the nose. After reshaping and modifying the nasal bone and cartilage, the nose skin and tissue covers the new structure again. The type of nose skin and how it fixes, have a significant effect on the final result of the surgery. Finally, a nasal splint is placed on the nose to protect it and also help the nose retain its new shape while it heals.
