Dr. Clavin's Philosophy on the Art of Nasal Surgery
Nasal cosmetic surgery should be performed by a surgeon only with very talented aesthetic abilities. In addition, the nasal cosmetic procedure should be performed with minimal surgical trauma to the nose, no external incisions, match and blend all facial features, look very natural and unoperated, cause minimal pain and discomfort to the patient, and be performed under the highest standards of safety.
The "new" approach to nasal surgery, that being an "open rhinoplasty", in Dr. Clavin's opinion, is widely overused, causes extensive swelling and trauma to the nose, and should only be reserved for very special cases of revision rhinoplasty.
