Preservation Rhinoplasty: Why Less Cutting Often Means Better Results
For decades, rhinoplasty meant reduction — cartilage removed, bone rasped, the nose rebuilt from a reduced foundation. Preservation rhinoplasty turns that logic on its head.

The result heals more naturally, swells less, and — in experienced hands — tends to age more gracefully than a heavily restructured nose. Dr. Oymak explains who is a good candidate, what the surgery actually involves, and the honest differences between the two approaches.
