This extensively revised second edition delves into the application of techniques originally developed by renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Rollin Daniel for open rhinoplasty to the closed approach. The author contends that this adaptation offers several advantages, including enhanced feedback during surgery, a shorter recovery period, and the absence of scarring. The book provides a comprehensive explanation of the preoperative preparation process, encompassing the evaluation of nasal surface aesthetics through the utilization of geometric polygons as aesthetic subunits. These polygons serve to define both the existing deformity and the desired aesthetic goals. Aided by an abundance of color photographs, the text offers step-by-step descriptions of the surgical techniques developed and modified to achieve the desired surface appearance. It further illustrates how the novel dissection and redrape control methods shorten the healing time and enhance outcomes. Additionally, the book presents a series of case analyses highlighting the benefits of the closed approach in rhinoplasty. Written in a user-friendly "cookbook style," this superbly illustrated book empowers plastic surgeons to rapidly grasp the utilization of the closed approach to rhinoplasty for optimal aesthetic results.
