Closed Rhinoplasty London (Scarless Rhinoplasty)
Closed Rhinoplasty London is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting aesthetic and functional issues related to the nose, without making any external incisions, by performing surgical interventions through the nostrils. Situated at the center of the face, the nose is intricately linked with all other facial tissues and organs. Therefore, aesthetic problems such as a hump on the nose, drooping nasal tip, or a large nose can directly impact the overall aesthetic harmony of the face.
To address aesthetic issues related to the nose, individuals often opt for rhinoplasty, also known as nose surgery or nose job. In contemporary practice, rhinoplasty can be performed using two different techniques. One of these techniques is known as open rhinoplasty. In open rhinoplasty, nasal tissues are manipulated through a small incision made across the columella, the strip of tissue between the nostrils. This approach allows the surgeon to lift the nasal skin and perform the necessary surgical procedures. Another technique for nose surgery is closed rhinoplasty, also referred to as endonasal rhinoplasty or scarless rhinoplasty. Closed rhinoplasty London offers several advantages over open rhinoplasty, as discussed further in this article. We will address common questions such as “How is closed rhinoplasty London performed?”, “What precautions should be taken after closed rhinoplasty?”, “How long does closed rhinoplasty take?”, and “What are the advantages of closed rhinoplasty?”.

What is Closed Rhinoplasty?
Closed rhinoplasty is a nose surgery procedure that involves addressing aesthetic and functional issues related to the nose through internal incisions, without making any external cuts. Closed rhinoplasty allows for the correction of aesthetic concerns such as nasal bone irregularities and cartilage deformities, as well as functional improvements such as enhanced breathing.
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Arda Kucukguven has developed techniques that prevent drooping of the nasal tip, minimize swelling and discomfort during recovery, and address functional issues related to the nose such as breathing, smell, and headaches. These techniques have been published in prestigious plastic surgery journals and have received numerous citations in the medical literature, establishing him as widely recognized and influential in the field of plastic surgery.
Why is Closed Rhinoplasty London Performed?
Closed rhinoplasty is performed to reshape the nasal bones and cartilage through internal incisions made within the nostrils, eliminating the need for external scarring.

How is Closed Rhinoplasty London Performed?
Closed rhinoplasty is performed under general anesthesia. During the procedure, surgical interventions are made through internal incisions within the nostrils, avoiding any external surgical cuts. Through the nostrils, the surgeon can rearrange nasal tissues and create the desired nasal appearance requested by the patient while also providing functional improvements. Additionally, for patients requiring narrowing of the nasal wings or nostrils, at the end of the surgery, wing and/or nostril narrowing and shaping are performed in a way that allows the scar to be concealed along the wing-cheek junction.
Recovery After Closed Rhinoplasty London
Recovery after closed rhinoplasty is generally faster compared to open rhinoplasty, as there are no external incisions. Since the surgical manipulations are performed internally, there is less postoperative swelling. Additionally, since no visible external incisions are made, there is no visible scarring after surgery.
Postoperative Care After Closed Rhinoplasty
Postoperative care following closed rhinoplasty includes:
- Avoiding lying on the face and sleeping in a supine position for a period after surgery.
- Avoiding strenuous physical activities for at least 5 to 7 days.
- Applying cold compresses to the upper part of the nose as recommended by the surgeon.
- Refraining from smoking until the healing process is complete, as smoking can delay tissue healing.
- Avoid swimming in the sea or pool for at least one month, as such public areas may lead to infection at the surgical site. •
- Prescribed medications should be taken properly, and post-operative nasal care recommendations should be followed diligently.
