Although the external rhinoplasty remains controversial it is difficult to understand why. The columella scar is of little significance since this becomes nearly invisible if the closure is carefully performed. There is a relative postoperative prolongation of nasal tip swelling in comparison with the closed technique, however this also becomes negligible with time. On the other hand, in our experience the open approach will achieve better understanding of the patient's individual anatomy and thus lead to a more predictable result through increased exposure and precision tailoring. The external technique facilitates the application of the great variety of tip refinements that have been developed over the years to allow facial plastic surgeons to get consistently excellent results in rhinoplasty.
