The Use of Osteotomies in Nasal Profileplasty

Abstract

In rhinoplasty, osteotomies are performed to manipulate the bony nasal vault to improve the function and/or the aesthetics of the nose. This article provides an overview of the instruments used for osteotomies, as well as the indications and techniques for osteotomies in nasal profileplasty.
