Athenix offers 2 types of Rhinoplasty:
Open Rhinoplasty: A small external incision made on the underside of the nose. It is the procedure of choice for certain types of noses and nasal shaping techniques. The incision for an open rhinoplasty heals very well and is less visible over time.
Closed Rhinoplasty (Endonasal Rhinoplasty): An incision that is made on the inside of the nose where the nasal bones and cartilage are designed to leave a desired shape. There are no scars with a closed rhinoplasty. This procedure uses specialized minimally invasive telescopes to allow nasal shaping. Healing is faster with a closed rhinoplasty since there is no incision on the skin.
