Rhinoplasty is one of the most technically demanding cosmetic procedures. The difference between a beautifully natural result and an over-operated look comes down to one thing: surgical experience with the Indian/South Asian nose. This guide explains what to expect, what's realistic, and how to evaluate a surgeon.
Closed rhinoplasty: All incisions are inside the nostrils. No visible scar. Best for refinement of the bridge, mild tip work and modest dorsal humps. **Open rhinoplasty:** A tiny incision is added across the columella (the strip between the nostrils) for full visualisation. Best for tip reshaping, complex restructuring, revision cases. The columellar scar fades to near-invisible within 6 months.
