Summary

It is well-known and universally acknowledged that rhinoplasty is the most demanding procedure in facial aesthetic surgery. Postoperatively nasal osteotomies result in variable degrees of edema and ecchymosis and surgeons have tried various techniques, instruments, and postoperative methods to diminish these uncomfortable morbidities. Piezosurgery is used nowadays to decrease the incidence of injured soft tissues and vital structures passing near the osteotomy line. Its use in rhinoplasty was advocated to prevent unwanted back fractures as well as to decrease bleeding while keeping the nasal mucosa intact thus minimizing postoperative sequelae.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Conventional osteotomy

The nasal skeleton was accessed using a closed approach or an open approach is done via a transcolumellar and infracartilaginous incision. Osteotomy was made using osteotomes.
