Abstract
SUMMARY: The form and shape of the nose is an essential component of facial aesthetics, affecting indirectly the mental state and the personality development of the patient. The restoration of shape deformities and functional disorders are corrected by surgical procedures of open and closed rhinoplasty. We present the basic principles of the closed rhinoplasty and our experience in restoring nasal deformities as nasal hump, with the method of closed rhinoplasty. Twenty patients underwent rhinoplasty from 1993 to 2013 using the closed method. Preoperative photographs were taken and a computer-simulated procedure was used to predict the outcome of rhinoplasty. The results were satisfactory both immediately after surgery and at a later time. The evaluation was done both by the patients themselves and by the surgeon. The closed rhinoplasty is a surgical technique with fewer complications as postoperative swelling, and better aesthetics because of the absence of external scar. The access provided to the osteochondral skeleton of the nose, although it is limited, when proper preoperative evaluation is done, in the hands of surgeons with appropriate experience and expertise, can be the method of choice to repair deformities of the nose.
