Abstract
While a large number of studies have been published on the surgical techniques used to obtain optimal functional and esthetic results in the field of septorhinoplasty, less attention has been devoted to techniques for minimizing postoperative trauma. In this connection, the authors highlight a number of intraoperative methods, such as microosteotomy, extramucosal approach, hemostasis, careful suture placement, and endonasal splints, the use of which has led to an overall improvement in postoperative recovery and swifter attainment of esthetic objectives.
