Preservation Rhinoplasty

Preservation rhinoplasty is a modern approach that reshapes the nose by keeping as much of its natural structure intact as possible, rather than removing and rebuilding it. Instead of shaving a dorsal hump from the top, the surgeon lowers the entire bridge from underneath, preserving the skin and soft-tissue envelope. The result tends to look more natural with faster early recovery, but the technique only suits a specific subset of patients — typically those with a moderate hump and reasonably straight underlying structure.
