Closed Technique Rhinoplasty
What is it?
Closed technique rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed through incisions made inside the nostrils to reshape the nasal structure. This technique leaves no visible external scars. The surgeon accesses the cartilage and bone structures internally to achieve both aesthetic and functional improvements.
Duration and Type of Anesthesia
Closed technique rhinoplasty typically takes between 1.5 to 2.5 hours. The surgery is most commonly performed under general anesthesia. In some cases, sedation-assisted local anesthesia may also be used.
Why Is This Surgery Preferred?
This technique is preferred because it leaves no external scars, ensures a quicker recovery, and offers more natural-looking results. Preserving natural nasal contours and minimizing tissue trauma are significant benefits.
Get in Touch
Aesthetics reshapes not only appearance but also self-confidence.
Who Is It Suitable For?
Closed technique rhinoplasty is suitable for individuals who are not satisfied with the shape of their nose and prefer a scar-free option. It is also an option for those experiencing aesthetic concerns such as nasal deviation, drooping nasal tip, or dorsal hump, as well as breathing difficulties.
Recovery Process
In the first few days after surgery, mild swelling, bruising, and a feeling of congestion may occur. Typically, the splint placed on the nose is removed on the 7th day. If intranasal splints or tampons are used, they are usually taken out after one week. Most of the swelling subsides within the first month, while the final shape of the nose settles within 6–12 months.

Rhinoplasty, when performed with proper planning, an experienced surgeon, and close patient cooperation, makes it possible to achieve natural and harmonious results that enhance the overall aesthetic balance of the face. Since each patient’s anatomy and expectations are unique, personalized planning plays a key role in the success of this procedure.
