Hi. I am thinking about having a rhinoplasty. I know there are two types of rhinoplasty, open and closed. I would like to hear more about it. What is the difference between an open or closed rhinoplasty? Which one is right?

Hi. The difference between an Open or closed rhinoplasty is the opening of the nose by external (visible) incision. Closed rhinoplasty is done “blindly”. I had closed rhinoplasty and I think both techniques are ok. Some say open rhinoplasty is better. However, the open surgery takes longer. Which one of these techniques is right, it depends on lot of things, such as experience and skill of your surgeon, and your nose. Most people choose closed rhinoplasty. I did. However, open rhinoplasty will leave you with practically no scar. The incision can be very invisible.

Whatever you do, please beware of Richard Ellenbogen who claims to only do closed rhinoplasty.
My once beautiful wife's face was completely destroyed by the Evil and unethical Richard Ellenbogen. When she consulted with reconstructive surgeons around the country, she met numerous others who had also been mutilated and deformed by this reckless, greedy, monster.
What people don't realize is that any quack can get on TV and on Oprah including Jan Adams, Michael Evan Sachs and Brad Jacobs -- all addicts who have finally lost their medical licences. Bad doctors often hire publicists to get them on TV and to get fame b/c that is really the only way for them to get patients.
Ellenbogen hires lawyers to continually remove all of the negative comments and ratings on him. But, we will post pictures of things that he wants no one to see - if he has any more ratings on him removed -- This is our warning to him.
There are 3 rhinoplasty forums, and if anyone cares to research Ellenbogen -- just email the moderators of each forum, and they will share the many nightmare stories about Ellenbogen that they have. Please go on ratemds to see many of Ellenbogen's horrific ratings and pictur of many people he harmed. |
