Join the Dorsal Preservation Course in Edinburgh on 7-8 May, 2027 and explore the latest concepts in preservation rhinoplasty. The program covers dorsal preservation techniques, surgical challenges, and anatomical dissections, offering a valuable learning experience for surgeons dedicated to advancing their rhinoplasty skills.

On April 17 and 18, 2026, W&H Med hosted an exclusive hands-on course on dorsal preservation in rhinoplasty in Coventry, United Kingdom. Fifteen experienced surgeons from seven countries took advantage of the two-day training to deepen their practical knowledge in modern dorsum-preserving techniques under the guidance of renowned experts.

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.
