How Is Rhinoplasty Surgery Performed Without Breaking It?
Rhinoplasty surgeries without breaking can be applied to correct the following problems:
-
Removal or reduction of the nasal arch at a certain rate
-
Nose tip lift or nasal tip surgery
-
Nose tip reduction
-
Functional surgeries such as septoplasty, concha reduction with radiofrequency, nasal valve surgeries
Medical instruments used to break the nasal bone are not used in nasal surgery without breaking, which can be performed in cases of all these above-mentioned problems.
Apart from that, classical rhinoplasty is applied. Since the nasal bone is not broken during the operation, the change in facial expression will be minimal when the patient is viewed from the front.
How Much Are the Prices of Rhinoplasty Without Breaking?
Rhinoplasty prices without breaking are cheaper than traditional rhinoplasty due to the shorter operation time and the use of less material during the operation. You can see the prices of rhinoplasty here.

-
Since the nasal bone is not broken, the formation of bruises under the eyes and on the face is much less after the operation, and sometimes only edema occurs.

Those with a certain percentage of nasal arches

Not very flat noses
-
Those whose nasal bones are not wide
As we mentioned above, this technique is suitable for selected patients.
Rhinoplasty Without Breaking Other Details
In this operation, the reduction in the nasal arch is limited and if you have a very arched nose, when you look from the side, a sufficient amount of arch reduction cannot be made. Therefore, it is not a suitable technique for arched noses on its own.
In patients with very thin nasal bone, the upper anterior region of the nasal bone can be removed without breaking the bone by shaving very little.
