The patient receives local or general anesthesia. This is decided based on the complexity of the intervention and other factors such as the general condition of the patient, his predisposition to the operation, etc. In any case, it should be noted that during rhinoplasty, the patient does not feel any pain.
Regarding the technique, there are two main types of rhinoplasty: open or closed. In the first, a minimal incision is made in the part of the skin located between the tip and the base of the nose; It is separated from the bone structure, and once the procedure has been performed, it is replaced by making a small suture. The brand is imperceptible. In the second type, the closed one, the intervention is carried out inside the nostrils themselves, without any trace of the operation.
