The incisions for rhinoplasty may be entirely hidden within the nose, or may involve a small scar across the skin between the nostrils. Dr. Sellars will advise you which type of incision is appropriate in your case.
Occasionally cartilage grafts may have to be taken from the ear or ribs to give extra length, strength or form to a small or bulbous nasal tip.
At the end of the surgery, a nasal splint or nasal packing may be required, to stabilise the septum (cartilage that runs up the middle of the nose).
These are usually removed the next day.
