From October 24 to 25, a rhinoplasty hands-on course supported by W&H Med took place at Hospital Bellvitge in Barcelona. Over two days, three internationally renowned experts guided 20 participants through advanced dorsal preservation techniques.

Functional-aesthetic rhinoplasty can be performed using either an open or closed (endonasal) approach. While many surgeons prefer open rhinoplasty as this provides improved visibility of the anatomical structures involved, it is not necessary in every case. For patients with thin skin, moderate dorsal deformities or less complex nasal tip deformities, closed rhinoplasty offers clear benefits: with intranasal approach, there is no external scarring and the soft tissue integrity is largely preserved. This contributes to an aesthetically pleasing result and supports fast healing by retaining the natural tissue architecture.
