Illusions in rhinoplasty.
A good rhinoplasty surgeon attempts to enhance nasal performance through airway and appearance improvement. The great rhinoplasty surgeon routinely improves not only nasal performance but endeavors to achieve a higher level of overall facial aesthetic enhancement by manipulating the surgical illusions of the face. This cohesive interplay of science between the eyes, cheeks, nose, lips, and chin is known all to well by the master facial plastic surgeon who defines the art of rhinoplasty.
